Okay I'm sure some of you might think this is absurd but maybe after sitting home for 3 weeks my stir craziness is just getting the best of me. I had my tummy tuck 2 1/2 weeks ago and just last week I had my arms and boobs done, so obviously 2 MAJOR surgeries w/in 2 weeks. My question is and maybe its more needing reassurance but my stomach isn't small at all. I mean Yes the (SORRY I KNOW) the extra skin is gone but my stomach doesn't "go in" at all its just no more hanging skin, how long does it take to really take shape?

i'm wondering if that's from swelling from the surgery?  that may go away fairly quick I would think once you become totally healed.

I had a LBL 6 weeks ago and my stomach is flat but it is still swollen, I was told we could swell for months after the surgery.  Do you still wear your binder it really does help with the swelling snd drink lots of water that helps also and I am sure it will eventually go down
