So I am now at 185 pounds and don't seem motivated to diet or anything. Still a size 10 or so, but getting worse. Has anyone else had this issue?! And my body is shaped differently so I definitely CARRY the weight better, but holy moly, get under control you fat cow! :(

I know how you feel. I am 165 and I was 149 when I had surgery almost a year and a half ago. It makes me sad. But I still exercise consistently and eat healthy but my weight has stayed the same for over a year now.

Just wanted to let you all know that I have a serious infection from the tummy tuck as well as significant pain from the butt fat injections. I have been hospitalized since Thursday on IV antibiotics and painkillers and it's been a terrible ordeal. I've been very sick for a week now (that's about when the infection started, pain of course since surgery).

Complications can and do happen!

Thanks everyone, have been HOSPITALIZED since Thursday when I got back to Canada, fighting the most pain and sickness I've ever experienced in my life! Doctors here worked to get my infection under control and figure out what was wrong with my big swollen lumpy ass! It's been a nightmare beyond explanation but I will pull through and feel much better since they started me I nthe IV antibiotics soon after I arrived on the ER doorstep!

I am not exactly sure - I think they said I have two infections - a wound one and one within the tissues. I am on IV antibiotics once/day until at least Aug 15 and have an ultrasound on Aug 7. I have to get blood tests each Wednesday until further notice too. I feel a bit better today - eating a bit.

Oh man that sounds awful! I can't believe that he would send you home with no pain meds. And then an infection too?? I am so sorry to hear this. I hope they get your infection under control so you can get home and get back to healing from all you've been through.

Yes thank goodness I am back in Canada and able to avail myself of our healthcare. I didn't know what to do in the USA or even if I COULD do anything there. One visit to the doc was $120 and he didn't even look at me. What an ordeal!
