Hi, I am seven weeks post op now. My stomach is much flatter in the front. I seen minimal progress in my back area. I am starting with a Trainer on Monday to work on toning the areas up more. I am going to buy a personal hand massager for some of the few hard spots I do have. I am scheduled for a follow up in April with the Dr. Whom I haven't I seen since my surgery, previous follow up was done with a nurse. I have no major pain or complaints. Just waiting to see more results at the three month mark.

22 Days Post Op: I am feeling really good, results are improving daily. I hae been doing light exercise, watching what I eat and drinking water. My incisions are healing well color starting to come back. My lower abs are really flat. I am waiting for the bra strap area to go down alot more there are hard spots in them. I get a lymphatic massage once a week now that is helping. I am feeling more confident in my clothing especially fitted tops. I try to watch my salt intake to decrease swelling. Overall everything is going well and I am being patient waiting for more great results.

You are looking great girly. your stomach is definitely getting flat....the bra line area will go down in small doses...mines is still going down after 13 weeks, but if it doesn't completely become flat, i'm considering getting my bra line redone when i get my flanks to get rid of residual fat. Keep up the good work!
March 25, 2013
Thanks so much, yes I am hoping it will go down so I can feel completely comfortable in a two piece. I wonder how much a redo cost @ ALC?

Mine is doing do the same, but I just continue to wear the compression corset garment and I don't worry about the rest. It will take 6 months for us to really see the end results, so be patient and all will be well..........

Everyone's body is different, but doesn't mean it's not going to happen. Just make sure you are doing your part. Drink plenty of water, keep sodium intake at a medium, workout, and have realistic expectations, and I promise you will see more than what you expect. You will be fine just give yourself time to heal internally and it will show up physically. Thanks for commenting.....

Post Op Day 5: I had surgery on Friday stopped draining on Saturday. I did get light headed when changing the pads. I have been taking pain med about every 5 hours even though I haven't had hardly any pain the past two days. Taking my antibiotics, my incisions holes are scabbing I am putting Neosporin cream twice a day. My garment is actually not as uncomfortable as I thought it would be. I only wear the binder at night. My results so far I can tell my lower belly is much flatter, my flanks are still swollen, not much change in the bra roll areas as of yet. I can tell my waist is getting smaller through the outline in my clothing. I am having my first lymphatic drainage massage on Thursday to help with swelling. Overall I am just going to be patient with the results. Still believe I made a good decision.

That's good to hear you are not having hardly any pain. I am hurting like crazy, my drainage has stopped as well around the same time. And the garment was just insanely uncomfortable. I ordered a panty spanx, I just really am really to get over this pain or soreness and then I will be good.......
January 30, 2013
Hi,I hope your pain is over very soon. I am now feeling bloated 9:30 pm. What kind of garment do you have? Mine has straps with breast open snaps between legs.
User Avatar

Well, the one the doctor gave me was just a high-waisted girdle with snaps between the legs; which is hard to do on your own because of the soreness, but I bought one with the boning today. I go for a follow-up on Thrusday and we will see what they say........ I bind every so often......... it drives me crazy.
