I've always had a belly even when I was 110 lbs.,I'm 5'7. Now I a finally at a weight that I am very happy with, about 150. Only problem was my belly was huge and I couldn't make it go away. Was even asked if I was pregnant. After the 4th "are you prego, I set up my appt! 1 week in and I already love it!

3 week tummy tuck update

Cheesestick
Happy! I can walk mostly upright as long as I move slowly. Going back to an office job this week was perfect, it got me moving a little more than I was. Still wearing my binder and it stopped bothering me if I wear I tank under it. The tape over my incision came off this morning and there was an area that looked funny, showed the doc and he said the steri strip came off too soon and irratted the area. He's asked me to put neosporin on this area for 1 week only. He also said my BB looks good,(not sure I agree)
I'm super happy. I have very little pain, and my flat tummy is awesome!!!

Hey! Nice to read your review. How are you doing? I am 11 days out.
December 23, 2016
For me 3 weeks was the turning point. I started feeling more normal at 3 weeks! How are you feeling ?
December 23, 2016
Omg. I can't wait for 3 weeks! Everyone is saying that! I'm OK. Feeling down. So tight and I can't stand so straight. We are neighbors ;)
December 23, 2016
That was the worst for me. I still can't stand straight all day, but feel good!
December 23, 2016
Awesome that we are neighbors:)

Shud I push it? Standing straighter?
December 23, 2016
My doc told me when I can lay flat in bed I can stand straight. I emailed him after my follow up appt cause I was frustrated I wasn't standing up. I was told that it takes time! Ugh! Any way, walking seemed to help a lot. I went back to work on Monday walking like an old lady, and by the end of the week I was feeling way better!
December 23, 2016
Oh wow OK. I have to go back to work at 21 day PO. That's after new years. I will try to walk a little more.
December 23, 2016
Good luck! Yeah I was back to work 19 days PO. Even though I would have liked to stay home, it got me moving more than I would have been at home
December 23, 2016
True. Plus it's making me depressed lol. Cuz you're obligated to rest

Don't overdo it though!

Hello 4 weeks!!

Cheesestick
I am happy! I love the way I'm looking. I am able to sleep in my bed, every night and I can walk upright for a good portion of the day. I've found when I sit for too long at work, my stomach gets tight! So I need to walk more and sit less. My BB still seems icky to me, but the doc says it's normal. The doc has me putting Neosporin on one section of my incision that had its tape come off early and irritate on spot!
Look at these pictures ...I am half the size :) I love it!!!
