I'm starting my 3rd week post-op and I still can't suck in my tummy. My jeans still feel snug around it even though I've lost like 25lbs. How long does this last? I know my muscles are still healing. Also, when's it safe to wear shape wear again?

I'm going through the same thing. My muscles are definitely still healing and I can't wait for the pain to stop and I can wear jeans that don't dig into my incisions.

Glad to know I'm not alone!

I never even thought about sucking in my tummy so I didn't know I wasn't able to do it ? But no issues four months post I just tried lol
