Tummy Tuck Question...

Yikes.

It seems as though two pants sizes lost is pretty common, but I don't have two pant sizes to lose. I'm already in a loose 2, and can barely find those. I can't imagine trying to find a 0 or 00.

Seems like such a contradiction to have to gain weight after plastics.

I didn't measure my waist before my plastics, but I was a size 12 going in and now I wear a size 8. I still have about 10-15lbs to lose and I'd like to have some contouring done, so I expect to end up in a size 6/8 when all is said and done. Doc took 13.5lbs of skin off of me

There are two primary choices in life; to accept conditions as they exist, or accept responsibility for changing them.

Dang, I knew I was forgetting something!  I took before pics and weighed myself the morning of my surgery, but I forgot to measure myself!

Oh well, I'm kind of jealous of everyone else - I haven't lost any weight at all.  I weighed 156 the morning of surgery and still weigh the exact same thing this morning (I've checked every day). 

I wore a size 4 jean before surgery.  I was positive with all the swelling they wouldn't even come close to fitting, but I tried anyway and they actually were a little loose even with my compression garment, binder and some tummy swelling still hanging around.  So, I'm thinking I'll end up down size-wise, even if not weight-wise.  Not sure why I haven't lost any weight at all - huge bummer!
