I'm 4 months PO and I feel great. Loving the fact that crop tops are back in style. I've always thought a flat stomach was the sexiest thing on a woman, and I love that I don't have to hide mine anymore. I still have a ways to go to be where I want to be, but it's excited. I'm swollen in these pics, but my swelling has been very mild so far. Hoping it stays that way!

You look great! How are you feeling? Are you 100% back to normal? I'm almost 4 months po and still reminded by the swelling. I'm still conscious of it, but it's getting better.

Yes, I really do feel totally back to normal. The only thing that still feels strange is when I stretch certain ways, I can feel the pulling around my incision. I've been lucky in avoiding any major swelling so far, but there are definitely days when I feel like my stomach is squishing all over the place and I HATE IT!

Still feeling great. I love my stomach and I swear, I don't know if I'll ever get tired of looking at it. Yay! Just wanted to upload a few more progress pics.

You look awesome!! Really I get it! It's life changing. Sometimes when I sit I feel like a roll is over my pants and I look down and I'm flat and it's an amazing feeling. Love to see your progress!

10 weeks post-op (I think!)

I think I'm about 10 weeks post-op... I honestly haven't been keeping track. At some point my life went pretty much back to normal and I don't think about my surgery 24/7 like I did before. I feel great. Still so happy with my decision to go ahead and have the surgery. I can't wait for the day when the swelling subsides! It definitely comes and goes for me. I'd have to say that I have more good days than bad, but every now and then I have a day where I just feel so swollen and bloated that I'm like WTF. When I feel that way, I try to pull up one of my before pics and remind myself how much better I look now, even with the swelling! It definitely helps. Hope everyone is healing well OR getting excited and prepared for their very own surgery! P.S. - my husband, who was all "you don't need a TT, your stomach is fine, you look beautiful the way you are" LOVES my results. He tells me almost every day how good I look, and I'm just like "yup, told you this surgery was a good idea!" I love being right ;)

Right?! I'm all like, "hate to say I told you so!" Haha but at least he admits it! If he tried to say that I looked just as good before then I'd know he was just being stubborn!

You have beautiful results! I'm 5 months PO and I still have my daily swelling, although it's not terribly noticeable. My husband was the same way and now he can't keep his hands off me...cracks me up!
