Was just wondering how long did you have to or want to walk bent over. I know my Dr will instruct me as to what to do but, just wanted to know the average. I have my TT tomorrow morning.

Thanks

It took me a while to straighten up after sitting, but maybe a week bent over a little, then I really tried to walk straight up, and I did.

I had a tummy tuck w/anchor cut 16 days ago...I was completely upright within the first week.

Although, I still feel very tight and stiff after sitting for too long...it takes a bit of effort to stretch it out and stand up straight. Perhaps it will be slightly easier with only a standard tummy tuck.

I am suppose to have the "inverted T" with anchor. So, much more than standard TT. Thanks so much for your response.

my dr. told me to stay bent over for a week and then I could try and straighten. I was able to with no problem at a week.
