I have my pre op appt tomorrow for my tummy tuck on july 28. Im really nervous but also excited. I can't believe its finally here! I had my son when i was 18 and was left with alot of strech marks, then when i was 19 had surgery on my bowel which left a nasty scar. Needless to say iv never worn a bikini again. I had to quit smoking one month before my surgery. Im happy to say im eight days smoke free!!! I wasn't sure if i could do it but i did. Its still hard everyday but im hanging in. I figured id start on of these blogs since im going to be sitting around alot after surgery. Maybe this will help me to get thru it.

How are you feeling with the muscle repair. I am having a lot of tightness. Are you doing anything special to help with the tightness.

Did they tell you how long you will feel the tightness as the days go on you will feel the tightness more and more. As your muscle are waking up.
