Hi ladies! Quick question, I feel great, looking nice, my only gripe...I'm a tummy sleeper and I still can't sleep on my tummy, it's just too uncomfortable! I have been sleeping on my side but I long for the days when I use to sleep in my tummy! Anyone doing it yet? When I lay on my tummy I feel so much pulling that it scares me. I go back to my doctor on the 26th of this month so will discuss with him, and trust me I'm fine sleeping on my side for now, just wondering when it will not feel so weird. My tummy is still quite numb and the area where I had lipo is still sore and sensitive and in my opinion my bothersome then the tummy tuck! I still love life now! This is the best decision I've ever made for myself! Love love love my results! Take care girls!!!!

Hello Ladies! I am 2 months post op (officially as of Monday, May 28th Memorial Day) so I thought it was time that I did another update and post an updated pic. I am feeling pretty normal with the exception of numbness in my belly and I still am not exercising at full throttle capacity out of fear of hurting myself, but I'm sure I probably could. I am thrilled with my results and just don't want to have any setbacks. I truly want to follow doctors orders and take my time with recovering. My scar therapy is coming along very nicely. My scar is healing very nicely and is super thin. I am very very happy with the way Dr. Tattlebaum placed my scar, how thin my scar is and how tight he pulled me. I have no visible stretch marks!!!!! I have been faithfully using the cocoa butter oil and lotion on my skin and applying the silicon sheet to my scar at night for about 12 hours a day (while i sleep works best for me) and then applying the lotion and oil during the day.
My love affair/obsession with my binder has finally been tapering off. I have been trying my best to sleep without it and not wear it for the last 3 weeks. I am only wearing spanx and sometimes not even that. I noticed when I stopped wearing the binder my swelling came full force then subsided. I am very pleased to report also that I can finally wear all of my previous clothing and have even dropped a size! I have lost a total of 19 pounds since the procedure. At 6 weeks post op I began light walking of about 2.5 miles about 4 days a week and now I am back in the gym. I am not doing any serious ab work but am trying to do some light standing ab work, again, very scared to do too much. I go back to Dr. T at the end of June and will see what he thinks then will kick it up another notch if he says go for it. After I work out I am very swollen for about 2 to 3 hours after. It is horrible and very uncomfortable but I think its just going to have to be the way it is. Its funny to lose so much weight in such a short period of time and not have any of it effect the result. None of my weight loss came off of my stomach. It appears to have come off of my face, arms and hips. I need that crap to come off my thighs!!!!!! LOL! Maybe next round! Well, I will post again at 3 months, until then, happy healing to you ladies and good luck to those approaching your surgery!

So far I'm pleased! Dr. Tattlebaum is professional and makes you feel very comfortable. Very pleased in my choice of him. I found him to be very calming and comforting and for me that is so important. Dr. Tattlebaum is a skilled surgeon and explains the risks the benefits and having realistic expectations. I would use Dr. T again and highly recommend him for a tummy tuck!
