60 days of p90x plus a tummy tuck equals an amazing stomach for bikini season. I'm 7 months out and couldn't be happier with the results.

5 weeks post op feels great. The only negative thing i can say is that when your stomach all of a sudden looks awesome, you realize how bad the booty needs a workout :) I went to an indoor waterpark with the kids this weekend. I wore a bikini but not one that showed where the silicone tape is so you couldn't tell I'd had surgery, and the stares felt pretty awesome. This was a great decision and I'm glad I did it. I'm not sure if I'm supposed to put anything on the scars for healing other than the silicone tape I bought from the plastic surgeon. I'll read on here and see. If anyone has any suggestions on that please advise.

You look bloody fab!!! Your scar of what you can see on your picture looks lovely and thin, so hope mine looks like yours. I've been recommended to use bio oil for the scar which I'm told I can start to rub in at 6 weeks onwards. My mate had a bad scar that's gone with using bio oil. I'm just a week in and I think the swelling is slowly going, I can feel my hip bones again! Anyway you look ace :) X

Wow! You look crazy awesome! I think I might have to try PX90!! I feel as if I have similar body shape and am 5'8", 126lbs. but need DR repair. I think I won't have enough skin to have a TT without the vertical scar. Would you post a photo of your vertical scar sometime? I don't want something that is an obvious giveaway to a tummy tuck. Gosh, I hope if I do a TT, I'll look as good as you do!

I have been focusing on caloric intake and low sodium eating so my weight is 1 pound below surgery day but it's darn near impossible to button my jeans so that tells me I'm swollen. Everything else is great. I'm at 19 dpo and I can do everything I could before surgery except work out my core, lift over 15 pounds without it stinging, vacuuming hurts, and sneezing still stings a little. Honestly the recovery has been very manageable. Now if the swelling would go away I could really see what I'm working with :)
My doctor tod me no ab work until I was 10 weeks from surgery. I've seen posts that say patients were released at 6 weeks. I'm ok with 10. I think you have to trust your own body. And 1 more thing - this is the BEST thing I've ever done for myself. I'm really really happy I did it :)

It does feel good to see yourself in the mirror and say.........WOW I'M HOT! You are looking fab love! I am 3 weeks and swelling pretty bad but I believe it's because I haven't been watching my sodium intake like I was before. So it's my fault!

You look amazing! I am so hoping for the day that I don't have my pooch and yucky extra skin. Thanks for your story!
