three week post op photo
Just adding my three week post op photo I took today. Tried to take my dog for a walk today...probably would have been ok except I live on a hill...attempt flat land instead to keep my heart rate down. Still very swollen, as I will be for a long time. Still seeing great results. Getting anxious to get back to work outs now! talk about motivation!!!
three weeks and 1 day post op
Quick update as I"ve been lagging..I will take a new pic tomorrow, but here's where Im at now otherwise. Im still pretty swollen but the healing has been going great. I measured my incision..24 inches long! I'm healing nicely. I'm just starting to wear my jeans again, just being careful about that button being too tight on my belly. My belly button is looking great..still have a couple scabs inside but thats no biggie. I'm almost sleeping like normal again - still propped up but a lot less. I'm almost to where I can sleep on my side again. I spent 1 week sleeping on my recliner and have been in my bed ever since. I just found the recliner more comfortable and easier to get in and out of on my own. In case you wondering about stairs btw...totally doable. I have a 3 story house and I MUST go up stairs to get to a living area..so I went up the stairs with help from my husband the same day I had surgery. No problem! I know that was a worry for me so hopefully that helps someone else out there. I took all my pain meds but 2 pills...recovery was fairly painful for me but as soon as I got off of them I didn't take anything at all..not even tylenol. Friends who see me instantly say 'OH MY GOD YOU"RE SO SKINNY!!" yeah girl! i better be! this sh*t was tough! One more thing I want to warn others about...I had a pre existing bad back, bad l5-s1. I will say my back pain was worse than my tummy tuck pain. My back pain was much worse than my tummy tuck pain. Now that I"m all fully upright and such my back pain is no longer..but just be aware. Klink tells me tummy tucks often help resolve back pain in pre existing conditions..which makes sense with the abdominal muscle repair. still 100% worth all of it! loving my results!
two days later
This is from my day 2 check up...WOW!! swollen like crazy and still an insane result! not one single stretch mark left on me..and I have a real belllybutton!! I had two drains..one came out on day 4, the other on day 6. The pain was real..i don't think I prepared myself enough for that..especially when i choked on my spit and thought I ripped every stitch inside of me open. Luckily, I didn't..but holy sh&t. Still 100% totally worth it. Dr Klink is great and so are my results!
As I post this I am 3 weeks post op...so i will start another review with those updates and photos next..
