Well 8 months still happy with things little ring around my belly button is a bit of a bummer but hey I'm not 20 lol!
I've been working out no abs as they seem to swell so will give it a year and really don't need to work them. Feeling in coming back in my tummy and slight ache in my hip is gone. Totally happy and feel so much more confident would do it again !
Scar is also doing great.

Looking awesome, I had mine done by him 3 1/2 months ago, he is wonderful! Do you find any excess skin(rolls) now? I am going to the gym but I still have wrinkling when I sit.(had full time with muscle repair). Thanks

I find my upper skin under my boobs rolls up, not sure what could be done for that as I know he pulled as tight as he could and I have to face I'm 48 and my skins elasticity isn't what it used to be :( are you saggy in lower stomach?

Hmmm ya might be swelling still ? It's early I have loosened up a bit as well and I also go to the gym and have kept my weight consistent. I'm still super happy as stretch marks were my main concern. Happy healing!!!

Thanks! My dr recommended I be at my goal weight less lipo less swelling. Really watch for infection I kept my pets out of my room for a week after surgery cleaned and sanitized it the day before I went in. Washed my hands constantly especially before touching my incision. Keep in touch with your Drs office if you have a questions about how your healing don't wait ask! Eat pineapple for swelling! I recommend increasing your protein before and for atleast 2 months after surgery it helps with healing :) . The first 3 days you need someone around, lots of pillows for your bed a walker for the first fees days really helped to....good luck

Thank you for responding ! I will
Be getting drains but no lipo ! I have been stressed out so eating a lot ! I am 3 weeks before my tt and now eating very healthy and exercising ! They advised me against protein powders 2 weeks before or any vitamins:( they say to wear their binder for 3 weeks after for 24 hrs! I was wondering about wearing another type of garnet afterwards ! Any recommendations! Thank you
G
July 10, 2016
Yes I was told no vitamins as well, I didn't do protein powders but increased my protein intake by eating high protein foods :) I had 2 sets of spanks 1 an little larger and softer for the first 2 weeks 24 hours cut the crotch out for peeing easier then pulling them up and down! Then I went to a smaller one and wore that 24-7 for the next two weeks. After that I still wore mine during the day just didn't sleep in it.

No vitamins?? I was gong to take one a day mulit's, vit C andD....
why no vitamins? I read others saying their doctors recommended they do take them....
G
July 12, 2016
My Dr said nothing two weeks before surgery as many vitamins supplements can be blood thinners so I did take vitamins up to then and started up again after surgery
