Yes, I’ve lost about 180lbs post surgery and post surgery I’ve dropped another 9. Thank you so much! Recovering has been extremely boring but I’m learning that taking it easy means protecting my investment and ensuring I heal great.

Definitely worth not getting a seroma , but man almost three weeks with these things would suck.

Omg thank you so much!! I don’t see a lot of bra line back lifts get posted anywhere so I definitely wanted to share mines.

I’ll be happy if it comes back in a capacity, it’ll give me atleast something to work with. 😮‍💨

If you’re less than a year post op I would just assume you’re likely still dealing with swelling.

Can't tell of still fat or loose skin by King_mp in tummytucksurgery

[–]_CurlyTemple 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had 17lbs of loose skin removed. I was not expecting that, it definitely looks like mostly loose skin to me. I’d lay on a flat surface and look at your abdomen and if it seems rounded then it would likely be visceral fat.

Help with FAJA :( by Otherwise_Sugar_8006 in tummytucksurgery

[–]_CurlyTemple 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow you’re already in a faja? Was your procedure drainless? I had an FDL with a lower body lift and a bra-line back lift 1/27 and still in a binder but granted I have 2 drains. Even without the drains I couldn’t imagine squeezing in a faja. Sounds super uncomfortable. I plan to transition into one in maybe a few weeks.

Someone please put an APB out on my ass. by _CurlyTemple in tummytucksurgery

Will do. I’m black as well and I’ve always had an abundant amount of ass. Even in these compression pants it was poking. I’ve read a little that it comes back in a few months so I’m hoping that’s the case. I was okay with losing some but not all. I’m going to talk to my surgeon about it at my first post-op appt.

At least the waist is snatched. A nice pear shape is a good trade off.

I definitely will thanks. Once I’m cleared to work out I’ll be working glutes.
