2 weeks post op Tummy Tuck

Two weeks since my tummy tuck and all is going good. My belly button is almost completly healed up . I am not taking any pain medications. The binders are a pain in the butt. Sometimes I have to take them off and give myself a break from them, as they are so restrictive.Just 4 more weeks and I will be done with them. I am still off work, gonna try to go back to work on light duty after I see Dr Thomas on 4-11-2005. We have a thing at work called the Transitional Work Center that lets you come back to work and start getting accustomed to working again and gradually transition back into the regular workforce.I find myself just standing naked in front of the mirror in the bathroom and staring at my stomach or lack of stomach I should say ......LOL

Good luck and heal well. You've come a long way!! Congrats. Tooldes, Renee

Congrads Mark, and thank you!! I now know what doctor to go see for a tummy tuck in this area. Im only 4 and a half months post op but will need some tucking when I finish losing the rest of my excess weight. Any information you can send me about this doctor would be appreciated. Thanks again, Shauna

I have recently started looking into this. Did the doctor have any requirements of you? Like did you have to loose any more weight to have the surgery etc. I have lost 160lbs but to be in the normal range I need to loose 20 more pounds. I'm just worried I will go and then they will be like nope come back later. Thanks for your help. And good luck next week at work. I bet you look great!
