Before & After TT Pics--8 days post-op

Today is 8 days post-op since my tummy tuck & flank liposuction.  I have added my photos to my profile.  In order to view them, you will need the following password:  newbelly

I have to say that I am really surprised at how little I have hurt with this surgery.  I think the worst part has been the liposuction on my sides.  I stopped taking the Vicodin 3 days ago because I just couldn't deal with sleeping all day and being constipated.  I am taking one Aleve every 12 hours instead.

There is still quite a bit of swelling, but to date, I've lost 4 lbs since the TT.  The nurse estimated they took 5-8 lbs off.  We'll see!

That's great that your pain has been so minimal; it makes the recover so much easier.  For 8 days out, you have a great shape.  Congrats!

wow Hun ,great job ...thanks for sharing yr pics ...

Wow!  What an awesome difference!  You look amazing~
I have heard the TT is painful, its nice to hear it isn't going to be unbearable.

Glad you are doing so well.. hang in there.. the lipo does cause some discomfort additionally from what I have read.  Wait till the swelling goes down you will just be in awe.... its awesome!

Girl, you look fabulous!  What a difference, and you have such a lovely shape.  I can't wait!!!  Here's wishing smooth sailing for the rest of your journey.  Diane.
