These aren't the best. I'm going to take more after my shower today and make sure my camera flash is off first.

Despite all the bruising I'm post op day 4 today and I still haven't needed any Vicodin at all. I'm very happy with my results. I had the no drain method Tummy tuck.

Thanks everyone! I still haven't had any pain. My biggest complaint is that I cant sleep in my bed. I don't sleep good at night anyway and this recliner isn't helping that. I had everything do.e at once and my boobs are no problem. I can lay on my side and they never bother me but I wake up with my hips hurting and sort of stiff. I just want my bed back.

I haven't had the lap band surgery yet, but I will. This is one of my concerns...the excess skin after the surgery. You look great by the way and it's great to know you did not have much pain. I wouldn't mind having the tummy tuck but I don't think I'd be able to afford it. I have medicaid and medicare and I am pretty sure it's not covered being that it is a cosmetic procedure. How much is it if you don't mind me asking? Also, what are good places in NYC to have it done? I want to be prepared. Thanks

Spoiltmom....any newer pix for us?

Oh and still, no pain:) I had a drain free yummy tuck. That may be why I have less pain and swelling,not sure though.

You look great! Congrats on the progress!

I'm hoping to take some in the next couple of days and post them. I feel so AWESOME!! Seriously. This was nothing like what I thought it would be, it's so much easier.

Wow, you look awesome-all that work and no real pain?? What a blessing. I hope you are able to post more pics soon. Ignore the negative people who commented. Keep up the good work. I am five months out from my LB surgery, have lost 30 pounds, and hoping my skin will rebound enuf to avoid TT. My body doesn't do well with anesthesia so don't want to go there again. Healthywoman

I had my TT done 2 weeks ago. Had a pain pump so that helped a lot. I have not thought the recovery was a breeze. Hard to sleep at night, can't walk around to much. Am hoping the results are worth all of this. No more cosmetic surgery for me. Mine cost $7,000 in upper Midwest.

Excited to see updated pics!

These are at 7.5 weeks:

These are a bit blurry but they are at 8 weeks in lowrise jeans:)

My PS will take more next month and then give me a copy of his before and afters. I will post them when I get them.

Thanks for all the well wishes guys! I'm back to full activity now. Even jogging again:) I still have some swelling but it should subside in a few more weeks.

You look great! I need to post my before and after pictures too. I am only 2 weeks post op but like you, recovery has been much easier then I had thought it would be.
