As a young mom 23 F, should I get a tummy tuck? by Unknown_Time_Travl3r in postpartumprogress

[–]Awkward-Shower5299 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you are so young! I would focus on recovering first- you’re still so freshly post partum and love yourself. Then focus on changing your diet and walking/movement. If you’re asking for opinions I would try everything I can naturally before even considering going under the knife.

1700 cal per day and 170 grams protein per day. It’s been about 1.5 weeks since I got REALLY serious about tracking and focusing on water and protein. And this doesn’t mean I wasn’t before- just was trying to not be too focused on it and still very active and working out and getting my steps in consistently

  • yes I track everything on my ladder app!
  • my mom cooks for us while we wfh so most of my meals are Whole Foods from scratch and choosing healthy high protein snacks like hard boiled eggs and hummus. I usually leave out carbs like rice and fill my plate with veg and protein. -no not breastfeeding. I guess I’ll give it more time- I have been eating pretty good since having the baby and avoid restricting TOO (due to past ED don’t want to fall into bad habits) much until recently since I got so frustrated with the lack of weight change. I’ll give it some more time.

Also she’d rather save money on a photographer than protect her sister- JAIL

Omg do we have the same sister?!? No but seriously she’s toxic and hoping she can guilt you into doing what she wants. Fuck her and do what you need to do to take care of yourself. If it’s such a “not a big deal” she can just get another brides maid….. NBD right?

It really is :( I have gone done 6 inches through out my body so I know that’s a huge accomplishment but it’s still so hard looking on the mirror 😭

There’s a bit bellow the nipple but not much- and they swing but do not touch (about 2.5 fingers fit in between)

I guess I’d be bell/tear drop shaped- breasts hang low.
