I am at the 6 month mark. I still swell up and I can feel it! I have gained 10 pounds and it pulls near my hips and legs. I have to get the 10 off! My weight goes up and down and drives me insane! I had my check up he says everything looks great and he's happy with my healing. I ended up getting a "dog ear" on my left side I'm okay with that I don't want anymore surgery to fix something my panties can cover. I am not doing my legs or arms....I just bought a bikini with a skirt. He was telling me things about both of those and he agreed with me it's just not worth it! The scars on my body to me just isn't worth it nor the amount of pain involved with it. I did ask him about a boob lift. I have an appointment in October to just discuss it. I don't have $6,600.00 to do a lift. No implants. I am not a candidate for those I am a 38DD as it is. He will discuss more in depth in October. So there you have it! That's where I am at in this adventure have a good one!

Before photos and after
I finally got my photos from my PS It's hard to believe this is where I started to where I am now. I see a HUGE improvement now. I lost 175 pounds naturally and this was what I was left with...BLAH!!! This is 6 weeks after, Im more like 9 now. I need to do updated photos, however I have gained 9 pounds and I can feel it pulling around the incision....I couldn't figure out what was wrong until I got on the scale....WOW!!! I'll be taking off this 8 pounds that's for sure! I am back to wearing my binder 24/7 for a bit too. I noticed I was looking heavy at the top under my boobs and thought it might be swelling or it could be my 8 pounds :-(
Not sure which but i am taking my precautions! Have questions just ask!

Thanks! So I'm not the only one gaining??? Cause nobody else has posted the truth about their recovery and I'm trying to be HONEST about mine. I didn't honestly see a difference in my body until I saw those pics this morning

I know! My family keeps telling me you look really thin but i just don't see it! Of course all i see is the rest of my flabby body parts;( I am seriously considering having my back fat side boob done next.

See same thing here. My bf keeps telling me it's a huge difference and I told him today I'm not sure how to take that! Im considering cool sculpturing for the side boobs no more knife cuts and scars this was enough

I have fat and skin to be removed so i've gotta have surgery... he will just work off my breast reduction scars. I'm not sure i can afford it....getting an estimate in a few weeks....we'll see. If i can survive tt i can make it thru that!

Oh my bat wings and extra thighs need to be removed but I've seen the pics and I'll pass!!! But my extra size b side boobs need to go and I don't want the knife so...either I deal with it or save some money when I see him in May I'm gonna inquire about the cool sculpting

How are things now! Hope you are through the worst of it now and enjoying that flat tummy!

Hi! I was just wondering, is this dr going to do anything for your mons area? How can he give you a nice flat tummy and then leave that behind and expect you to be completely happy? He wouldn't be if it were him, I bet! He ought to...and for free or a VERY low cost, even! He should've thrown it in with your tuck or at least addressed it at your consultation so you had the option to have it done or not while he was doing your tuck. I know what it's like to have a mons that hangs. It messes with your mind and you feel like the whole world see's it right through your clothes! I'm sure they don't but you feel like it!....Not Fun!!! Well, congrats on your weight loss and new flat tummy! Best wishes to you! : )
