2 Years and 1 Month Post Op

I am now 2 years and 1 month post op from my Mommy Makeover. Overall I am pleased with my results. I LOVE my tummy, but my breasts are still uneven and my left one has started to droop. I will have to keep an eye on it. They look fine in clothes and my husband doesn't care, so I'm living with it for now.

I let my weight creep up over the holidays and gained 20 pounds. I've worked hard and gotten back down to where I was pre-op. I weight 141 (I'm 5'6") and wear a 2/4 in pants, but need a size 10 on top if there is no stretch. Needless to say, the tailor at the dry cleaner near my house knows me well.

My scars continue to fade, especially on the sides. I think in a few years they will be fairly invisible. I still wake up incredibly flat and puff out a little during the day (I think this happens to everyone though). The pictures I posted are after lunch.

Thank you for the updates and being so detailed! You look absolutely stunning and you've healed beautifully. I agree that something is going on with the boobs but if it doesn't bother you or your hubby then leave them be!

I have been waiting to update because I got really sloppy and gained 20 pounds. A lot of life events and holidays and not paying attention like I should. Anyway, it's been almost 2 months and I'm down 15 pounds. I'm working on the last 5 and will get there before swimsuit season. I love my breasts and tummy but can't stand my butt and thighs now. I'm going to address this when I make my appointment for my annual check of my implants. I feel like the tummy looks so good that I want it all to match. We'll see. Hope you are all doing well. I am almost 21 months post op.

Amazing. What did you use on your scar? Also where did you get all your bikinis?

My one year anniversary was on 6/20/14. Things are going well. I'm happy with my body and have decided to accept it as it is now. I still have thigh skin and a saggy butt, but if it really bugs me then I can wear board shorts over my swim suit.

I've settled into a size 6 on the bottom and a size 10 on top. I was a 4 going into the surgery, but I feel like this is a weight that I can maintain with a reasonable amount of work for the rest f my life. I;m done beating myself up over my body.

You went through a lot of changes in the past year. You are a very strong woman and instead of keeping your flat tummy from the TT, you went to the gym! I see a big difference and your looking good#!! Not every result may seem perfect but trust me, you look amazing! I can't wait to see more of your abs coming in. How long did it take until you started seeing definition in your tummy?

Thank you for posting your journey! I was awesome to read and to know that it is possible to get back into lifting at a somewhat reasonable time frame. You look beautiful~
