Only 2 Days Until My Tummy Tuck!!



Recommended Posts

So excited!!! I'm doing a Tummy Tuck with full muscle repair and a breast lift and augmentation.

My PS does the full muscle repair and then goes back in and sutures the muscles corset style. He said it gives a more defined waist line. He also uses the no drain technique and I'm getting a pain pump.

I've wanted this for so long now! I must admit though, I had to take a deep breath when I went to pay for it all last week.eek.gif I know it will be worth it though.

If I could be so crude to ask.....What is the cost of your procedure? Inquiring minds want to know! :)

So jealous! I think its finally hit me after six years that things aint getting any better, that last few lb is not going to make the difference, lol.

Very best of luck, hope its easy to recover from, and I'm sure you'll be thrilled with the results.

Thanks everyone! I live in a small town. It's only costing me $11,500 total. At the closest BIG city to me it's $10k for JUST a tummy tuck.o__O

I'll update as soon as I can.

Best wishes to you. Hope all goes smoothly (and flatly too - as in tummy flat!).

Let us know how you're doing afterwards.

Take care.

I made it! I got my TT and breast implants yesterday. I was given a lot of Phenergan so I've been really sleepy and that's been the worst of it so far. I got a pain pump for my belly and so far I haven't taken any pain meds at all. Hopefully I can keep that up.

Glad to hear it's going so well. No pain meds - WOW! I hate taking them because of nausea but I was on them for at least a week.

Look forward to seeing updates. Hope you continue to do so well.

Take care.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
