100 Pound Weight Loss Maintained 14 Years. Fleur Di Lis Tummy Tuck Skin Removal

Fleur de lid tummy tuck performed yo remove 5.4 pounds of skin and remaining abdominal fat after maintaining 100 pound weight loss for 14 years. Dr Shah and his staff were friendly, helpful and patient through the entire process. Appointments were always efficient and on time. Surgical staff were so calming the morning of surgery. After my tummy tuck, I could barely stand and the tightened muscled pulled a lot. But, wow oh wow!!! My belly was flat and my boobs looked huge since they weren't competing with my belly. It was a little weird. I had never looked down and saw my vagina split before. Had always been heavy or had skin. It was super cool! Saw my body and actually contemplated wearing a bikini for the first time ever. Even the dimples on my thighs were tightened and gone. Artist!!!!! That's the only way to describe him. I didn't know my belly button belonged way up there. Lol. It had always sagged low. I had 1 drain tubes that remained for 1 week and another that stayed for 2 weeks. I only needed Percocet 5s for 3 days. After that, I maintained 800 mg of Advil every 6-8 hours for another few weeks then was able to take it down to 400 mg of Advil before a lot of activity or to sleep. After day 6, I was done, I had been sleeping in the recliner, I missed my bed, I missed sleeping on my dude, I missed not being in pain, it was my poor pitiful me breaking point. I got dressed, went to my family's house and started driving a little. By day 10, I was back to most housework except vacuuming and lifting. Once each drain came out, the burning sensation under the skin was gone. Day 21, I returned full time to work at my desk job. First week was rough. I wore bigger clothes and my binder. I had a few stitches show on the outside. I just snipped them off and kept going. Here I sit with tomorrow going to be 5 weeks. I love my results so far and I'm hearing they only keep getting better. I did have to check myself though. I got rid of a huge section of skin and then started nit picking other things. I had to stop and appreciate where I was right now compared to the last 30 years. I have had some weird things I've wondered if we're normal and they were. Scratching right side of belly, but feeling it on the left. Having the inside lips of the vagina protrude out. It's ok, they are slowly going where they belong. I'm finally laying on my side to sleep comfortably after 3 1/2 weeks. I have a stitch and not inside one side that is poking me, but I just massage it and move it out of the area it's poking. Most don't post or ask this, so I'll tell. Had sex at 3 1/2 weeks and yep, even that is tighter and my honey has a brand new woman again. ????. I'll post more pics at 6 weeks.
