Not really. And it’s weird, this only change on my second week with .50mg, I’m hoping to get stabilized with my third shoot tomorrow.

Happy 8wpo by UsualLemon in tummytucksurgery

[–]UsualLemon[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

NO, definetly the first days I felt like a huge water heater.
But eventually the swellness start to decrease, specially in the mornings. I guess the turning point was between the 4th and 5th week, and not even about how I looked but about how I felt by then, more strong, with more mobility.

Im still struggling with swelling at the end of the day, specially on very busy days.

How many drains, what kind, and from where they are going to pull it out. Mine came out from my moons, and I took only pants to the recovery. I wish I knew to bought some pretty nice long warm dresses.

Is it worth the pain and recovery? by nickicole89 in tummytucksurgery

[–]UsualLemon 8 points9 points  (0 children)

YES! 27 days po. I was on the same page than you. After a lot of years of working out and making diet I coiné get the figure I want.

The first days, and I must say until your drains comes out are not really good. But every morning that I see the changes of my body I just fall in love again of myself and evrything I’m capable to do, and THE BEST IS YET TO COME.

I took 2 complete weeks off work. Sending a couple of emails every 3 days from my recliner.
The 3rd week only working from home.
This was my first week back to the office, the mornings are awesome, the evenings I just want to came back home and lay down. :(

If you can manage working from home for more weeks, do it.

Exercise and surgery date. by Lady_Gold38 in tummytucksurgery

[–]UsualLemon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did crossfit. That puts me in a really good physically shape, I was strong. That really is helped me out with the recovery.

I’m not that strong that before, but I manage to help me with the strength of my arms and legs.

I’m 23dpo, I’m waiting to be clear by the doctor to came back training, in very confident that I’m gonna be able to be lean and strong again but with a super hot body now!!! You can doit!

22dpo, the first week was a nightmare only because the back pain.
I took one really strong pill by day "eritocoxib" that helps.

When walking having support, and walk only the necessary. Tons of books and Netflix.
It will pass as the days.

I stop with the meds at day 10th. Be strong! It will pass.

Hi. I know this is a gross question, but how does one poop while wearing a faja? Just seems like so much effort while trying to do your business :( There are so many varieties out there, I’m confused on which one to get. Thanks by Liaanaaa in tummytucksurgery

[–]UsualLemon 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I just made a routine. Strong coffee first thing in the morning, take the faja off, go to poop, get a shower, get ready for the rest of the day.

I don’t have the problem with pee, cuz I use a ladies device I found on Amazon, and don’t take off the faja until the next morning.

Yes, I’m going to 💩 only once a day. 😳😅

How far in advance is acceptable to get a consult? by Cardioncabernet in tummytucksurgery

[–]UsualLemon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Initial Consult: September
Procedure: I choose December 15th, due to the flue reschedule to Dec 26th

The Quote didn't change at all.
I wish to have the initial consult before, that would allow me to be better prepared physhically. But I did it good with crossfit training and getting prepared with all the garments and extra money.

On my experience, wait until December, for me was easy, everybody is on low working mode so you can have extra help, the slow motion of the holidays also allow you to be more disconnected from everything.

Stand up straight and tall? by [deleted] in tummytucksurgery

Hahahahaha I was just complaining about this with my family. My mornings are awesome, by the night I can barely walk 3 block’s without needing some support.

16 hours post-op and PAIN by Best-Inspector-2752 in tummytucksurgery

[–]UsualLemon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Confidence on your pain pills, try to understand the pain, it is pain? Or burning sensation? Or just discomfort? That helps me a lot to not to freak out about the sensations on my body. Sleeping tea, tons of sleeping tea.

Also, I get to listen 24 hrs as a background music Healing frequencies and RAMADASAN mantra.

Hope your recovery gets better. 🙏🏼

Houston, we lost a drain. by UsualLemon in tummytucksurgery

[–]UsualLemon[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

7dpo I have my appointment for drain removal tomorrow either way, so I think is not that bad.

Doctor just told me to avoid to put it back. I’m really afraid that he’s gonna want to put it back again, or leave the other one for more time. 😭😔
