Happy after five months

I am very happy I did it. Now I just look good in all clothes- I’m not bluffing ????. Recently I have been wearing just sports bras to work out(such a show off!), and I get lot of envy looks from other ladies. I still have some fat around my waist/flank area though (love handles), but I’m very happy and confident. Other updates:
????Able to do all kinds of exercises now. I found that I’m much better at balancing yoga poses now, that’s a plus.
????Can go all day without compression garments but can feel a little uncomfortable at the end of the day. I would still reach out to a sport binder for immediate relief
????Still numb below belly button. When I scratch the area, I feel some sensation to my right side, kin of weird.
????Still using silicone sheets helping the scar. Scar is not very pretty(pink), but it is OK.

Happy with my tummy :-)

I’m 4 months past operation now, and as the weather gets warmer, I can enjoy more of my new flat tummy. Now clothes just look great on the front, no longer need to worry about a bulge. Sneezing or coughing no longer hurts. I hardly have any swelling these days, but sometimes at the end of the day I notice a little but it doesn’t feel uncomfortable for me to reach out for my binder like before . I don’t wear a binder or compression garments during exercises (still wear a compression garment during the day. might stop that when the weather is hot) , and it is OK. I have resumed all my gym workouts, which is awesome! It feels all normal now but still tight at the cobra position during Yoga. Also when they do crunches or engage really hard ab workouts, I try to modify it so that I don’t use my abs too hard- what I have may look like a hardcore ab, but I know it was damaged, repaired with scar tissue. I want to be careful. It is interesting now that I’m on the other side, I notice people’s abdomen more often and know who has diastasis recti. I think a lot of people do. They are working hard on their abs but they will not be able to get back to that place just with exercises. I know it because I was there. I’m really glad that I did this! Hope you are all doing great and enjoying your results!

Three months- nerves are being repairied

Today marks exactly three months for me. Feeling better each week, but still feel kind of weak in the abs(even though it looks like I have been working my abs hard haha), and I’m not yet back to my pre-surgery workout intensity level. I noticed some soreness since last week around the muscles. After the soreness subsided I gained some feelings in that area. Interesting. Recently have been into buying two- piece swimsuits. Who isn’t?! lol. Trying the latest addition here it your references. Best!
