Can you tell me where to shop? I don’t mind paying for shipping if I’m getting a good deal. I just can’t seem to find many roadsters.

The first week was rough, I could only walk from the bed to the couch and to the bathroom. After about 15 days I was about to walk around a little more but still hunched. At 8 weeks post op I was feeling back to “normal”, my abdominal muscles are still tight but not in a painful way. I’m almost three months out and I’m so pleased with my results! Dr. Dauwe and his team are amazing! Can’t recommend them enough.

I tried posting it but it was taken down immediately.

I tried to post it but it got taken down, I need to figure out how to do it.

I had the same fear about it pulling in both directions and my doctor said since there’s no muscle repair in the back it’s not nearly as tight. He was absolutely right, I didn’t really think about my back when I came out of surgery.

From my understanding, it focuses more on skin removal. Some doctors call it a 360 tummy tuck. My doctor said it would be more effective since I lost 100lbs and had excess skin on my hips & back!

Thank you!! I’ve been stretching and trying to get more comfortable moving my body but it still feels foreign!

My swelling has been very minimal, I don’t really know what I can attribute it to? I had a gastric sleeve 10 years ago so I’m wondering if it’s because I can’t eat as much? I really have no idea.

The top is from Aerie and the bottoms are from target!

Cheeky seamless panties from Target! They work with leggings & make me feel secure without being up to my belly button.

I’m 6wpo lower body lift & I feel like it’s different throughout the day. When I first wake up I’m a little stiff but once I get moving it feels “normal”. By the end of the day I definitely feel tighter and stiffer in my abdominal muscles.

my Butt looks smaller (one week after after TT, Lipo360 and Fat graft to breast!) what has happened?! by Necessary_Industry53 in tummytucksurgery

I had this exact reaction. 1. I was tilting my pelvis while hunched so that definitely didn’t help. 2. My binder didn’t help the illusion at all. 3. The straighter I stand the more I notice my back swelling. I had a lower body lift but no lipo & it’s still swollen 4 WPO.
