I haven't posted photos in a long...long time. Keep in mind I've gained about 20lbs, which I am not proud off, but am trying really hard to lose now. I am still very happy with my results.

So it's been just over 1 year since my tummy tuck and I feel kind of bad that I haven't been updating. I guess I should take some photos to show the change. I have gained about 20 lbs since October, which I feel really bad about. I blame it on the Holidays and everyone's Birthdays and good food. I haven't really been working out like I should have and just been busy with work and kids. Really have to kick my butt into gear now. Although I have gained weight in my hips and legs, my belly is still flat. Yes I still get swelling at the top but I know I have to lose weight to get rid of that. I still look 100% better than before. So overall I am happy with doing the surgery.
My belly button has healed and the scar has faded mostly. It looks so much better now. Not the belly button I envisioned but not too bad.

what did your doctor day about your belly button? do you have a picture?

I haven't actually been to see the dr. since last year. Just too far to travel and I've been trying to lose the weight before I see him again. But all I can tell you is that the scar has faded so much that it is hardly noticeable anymore. So that makes the belly button blend in with my skin and not stick out so much. I will take some pics this weekend.

Wow time really flies, I can't believe that I will be 4 months post op very soon. Sorry I haven't updated much, life just got too busy.
I've gained a few lbs so my curvy shape is not so curvy anymore. Also I have this strange bump below the belly button that feels hard and is there all day, so don't believe it is swelling. Getting a bit worried. Not so noticeable when I wear clothes but definitely there. Anyone else experiencing this???

Thank you for all your posts! I liked the detail and honesty. I am so excited and nervous about it but it's nice to get real information from people who have been through. You look great!

Would you say the Lipo was more painful/uncomfortable than the TT itself? Lipo comes with my TT but I really don't want to get it if I don't really need it.

Randimud, I don't feel that the Lipo is MORE painful than the TT, it just adds more recovery and discomfort with the TT. Unless your are already pretty lean you will want lipo to help balance the effects of a TT. Otherwise any excess fat in that area will appear even larger since the belly area will now be flatter. Hope that helps answer your questions. =)

Thank you, that puts things into prospective perfectly.
Are you satisfied with yourBB now?

My BB is doing pretty well, the infection and allergic reaction all healed now just waiting for the scarring to lighten. I need to take the time and do an update. =) Life as been CRAZY!
