Before and after pics!!!!

Options
Ok guys, I wasn't going to do it but I trust you guys so here it goes. I posted 2 before pics of my ugly disgusting belly and one pic taken today, 6 days post tummy tuck. I am so excited with the results. I am still VERY swollen. I am actually 20 pounds heavier today than I was the day I went into surgery. It is just fluids but I can already tell that It is going to look great. I just wanted to share my excitement with you guys. The pics are kinda graphic so don't look if you don't want too. By the way I get those horrible looking drains out tomorrow!!! YEAH!!!!

    Hi

    Holy crud..you have done a fantastic job and you are going to look AMAZING when everything is healed (you can so see a difference already!)
    I'm thinking of getting this done myself next year if these darn crunches I'm doing don't help

    Wow! You hide that well, cause your face is sooooo thin?! (I hope that doesn't sound rude, cause it's not meant to be!) Who would have thunk that tummy was hiding in there! (That is exactly what my stomach looks like but way more wrinkly from ALL the stretch marks!) I think I would get one in the future.
    How is the recovery going? That's my only problem. I work from home, so trying to figure out when the time would be best and I suppose you can't "sit" , right? Since I work on the computer?
    Inquiring minds!

    Wow you look great! I've dreamed of doing that for the longest time. Maybe some day I'll be able to afford it. I won't hold my breath though. I'm so jealous. Congratulations. :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou:

    You look great, but I have to admit this kind of scared me. Does this mean I will never lose my big fat belly even if I lose all my weight?? Because your before pic looks just like the shape of my stomach now, with that nice little pooch on the bottom. You've lost just about what I need to lose. Is it hopeless??? :sad: :sad:

    Oh My God Amber...you look Fantastic:bigsmile: You've earned it. I can't believe how fast you've come along in such a short amount of time. I can't wait to see how the healing goes in another week or so. Keep us all posted. I didn't know you then but we could have gotten a "package deal" if we all went in together:laugh: Happy Recovery:flowerforyou:

    Thanks guys, I was sooooooo scared going into it. I was worried about the pain ant the recovery but, now that's it's over with I would do it again in a heartbeat. For as extensive a surgery it is, it was not that bad at all.

    Now that the weight is off I am still going to continue to log all my meals so I can maintain and not have to spend that kind of money ever again. This site helped so much and I feel that it will be just as good of a maintenence tool as it was a weight loss tool.
