Not very happy. My tummy tuck came undone early on. At first they just said it was swelling so I gave it time. My Dr Loews in moved to the keys. I gained like 10 pounds so the new Dr blamed the muscle separation on the weight gain. Now I've gained 25 pounds so tummy is mote distended then it was before. So sad. Books are sagging also. Mons is way bigger and sagging also. I just joined a gym. I'm hoping to loose weight and maybe do it again one day. But before that I need a hysterectomy with rectocele repair. I also want back liposuction and butter augmentation if I ever get the money. My husband and I are talking about divorcing so all of this is somewhere in the distant future. All I can do now is loose weight because I'm so uncomfortable. I feel like a full term pregnant woman anxious to give birth . Sooo of uncomfortable. :(

Hi! you are doing great! It IS hard, our bodies are getting used to something totally new, and healing from something very dramatic! You look great, and I know something that might calm you. My first ps who gave me a BA 3 years ago told me that our bodies stay swollen longer on the left side because that is where our lympnodes drain from. If that makes sense? I hope you are doing alright. Are you standing a little straighter yet? I am 12 dpo and my tummy is really tight on the left side and still very numb. But my right side feels fine. I hope you feel better, your healing more every day! Stay happy!

Thank you for your encouagment!! It would be great if it works out that left breast is swollen :) I am standing a little straighter but nowhere near normal...my tightness seems high in abs and maybe even between Boobs...most of my feeling is back except right around the TT incision...and around belly button wich is sill not healed up..I'm on cipro twice a day and bactraban cream for the bb......at least it's not getting worse...I ended up not getting my drain out because my last 2 apts I drained 30 the day before...I should have it out by Tues...Are you standing straight?
August 12, 2013
Noo I'm not standing straight,lol I'm still hunched over. I try but then I feel I'm over doing it. That's too bad about your drains, soon! I'm thankful I didn't get drains, my doc doesn't use them. Is the bactraban cream for infection, my BB looks strange. Keep up the positive thoughts!
August 12, 2013
Yes, the bactraban is for infection..if u see I have one question on my profile for the Drs about my bb..you can see a pic of mine...it's yucky!!!
August 12, 2013
I saw, I hope that gets cleared up for you soon! Are you super swollen? If I take off my compression I feel like I'm going to bust! I am excited for the full recovery time to be done
August 13, 2013
Yes, I'm so swollen at times that I feel like my tight skin can't take anymore...Iknow what you mean...I can't wait to feel normal again one day!!!

Hi there ,,, you look really great ! I knew ahead of time I'm a really bad bruiser but examining my pics and comparing everyone elses It is quite clear!! my bruises are like eggplant purple!! I too have a LOT of swelling and we just have to give it time.... I'm willing to wait :) take care and be good to yourself
