I had 3 c/s and my tummy tuck was much better as far as pain goes. I had horrible muscle spasms though from sleeping upright for so many days and I actually had 2 massages about 4 weeks out that helped a lot.

I had one done on June 27th. Best decision I've ever made other than to finally get healthy and lose weight! www.erinstummytuckjourney.wordpress.com

I have before/after pics of just my body in clothing in general on my blog. Once I get my official pics from my PS I'll update! www.erinstummytuckjourney.wordpress.com

I want to be clear I didn't do this for weight loss. I was expecting maybe a few pounds of skin so this was a shock to me. I'm in Michigan.

Holy crap those drains coming out were the WORST part of the whole thing. I'm still really swollen too and now down 15 pounds. It really is life changing emotionally and physically.

I just wanted to add that I am one week post-op today and I am feeling great. My only complaint is the drains and they come out tomorrow. I've had 3 c-sections and they were so much more pain than any of this for the tummy tuck. I'm just so excited to see the end result when all the swelling goes down finally!! But I'm…

I love yoga! Started in January with almost no flexibility or balance and now I can see such a difference!! Not only is it great for relieving stress but a good calorie burner when you do power yoga!

Way to go girl!! Proud to say that I personally know you and have been following your journey!!

Starting weight was 282. Current weight is 236. Goal weight is 180.

I was just on a plateau for the last 3 weeks. I had lost 1.5 lbs the week after I was on vacation and then gained 3 back. Stayed at that wait for 3 LONG weeks no matter how much exercise and staying under my calorie goal I did. You can do it.

That was me in high school!! I think when I was down to 200 I was a 16?

Way to go! What a great feeling!!

Seeing pictures like yours make me feel like this is totally worth it! Keep up the great work!

I am a mom to 3 kids who are all in activities just about every day of the week...so we are on the run a lot. I haven't spent any more on my grocery bill to buy special foods. I'm just watching what amounts of food I'm taking in. It makes a big difference. I menu plan the week ahead based on who is where, when, and what…
