38 Years Old, 3 Pregnancies, 2 by C-Section

Well, I am almost 6 months post op. My current weight is 170 lbs so down 24 lbs since the day of surgery. My last visit, my surgeon had suggested a small revision for additional lipo and maybe a couple of small incisions to thin out the top half of my abdomen which is what my concern was mainly from the beginning. He also is concerned with the fullness on the ends of the incisions. Overall, I am happy with the results. I see Dr Brown next week to decide on what/if we are going to do anything.

Well, I feel at about 80%. I have tenderness around the incision but able to wear jeans that don't hug too tight. I am having some major numbness from the belly button to the incision. Feels wierd but doesn't hurt.

I plan to start C25K today to slowing incorporate running back into my routine. Hoping to get full clearance on all exercises when I go back for my 8 weeks checkup.

Weight is down from 194 to 170
Under bust from 37 to 34.75
Natural waistline from 36 to 34.5
Around belly button from 39 to 37
Hips from 43 to 42

I am down over 20 lbs so I think I am still swollen. I would have guessed I would be down anout 4 inches on my waistline. I can't really tell what is fat and what is swelling. Time will tell, I guess.

Well today is 4 weeks post op. All in all, I feel really good. I have been cleared to do most exercises at a moderate level with no direct core exercises. I can do squats and lunges without any weights.

I was told to still wear my garment 24/7, getting real sick of it but the good news is that before surgery, I needed an extra large. Bought a large and it was a little lose so went with a medium-fits great.

I can wear my pre-surgery jeans but I am still a little tender so I only wore my high-waisted ones.

My weight is now at 178 so I am down about 16 pounds from surgery. Swelling is still there so not much difference in inches. The circumference around my bb is 37 so about 2 inches lost there. Can't wait til the swelling is all gone.

My incision is healing very well. Not too thrilled about the shape of my bb but my surgeon told me to massage the scars and the area around it as it is very swollen still and hard.
