Have you pretty much maintained your other lifts? If so, and it's just bench that's down, that's a little weird. How much weight have you lost so far?

It sounds like all of your lifts took a hit strength-wise, which is natural. As you've continued lifting, the strength came back in other lifts, but not the bench? Any shoulder issues now that maybe you didn't have before? I'm clueless "tattoo". Maybe hang in there and keep doing them and perhaps it will just come back slower than the other lifts. I hardly bench press, and when I do, it's usually just with dumbbells and not the bar, so I'm at a loss as to why it's dropped off so much and stayed down. Hopefully it will bounce back....good luck!
