Katie 16 Posted July 14, 2012 I am going to hit my two year mark in January and I am considering doing a Tummy Tuck. I carried my weight all over but definitely in the stomach. It's not bad, but I am still in an L-XL top because of it. I can fit into a Medimum but it doesn't look good lol. Has anyone regretted doing one? 1 MissNikki27 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jenneliza 257 Posted July 14, 2012 One of my friends did it over Xmas vacation and is so proud of her new flat belly! I think you would be too! I say go for it!! 1 one4ozzie reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TinyMamiOf3kids 1,280 Posted July 14, 2012 I say go for it also. I'm also getting mine done in 2 years. My mom had it done years ago. The down side about my mom is that she wants the easy way out,and getting a Tummy Tuck & never exercising & eating out will not keep you in shape so in other words this tummy tuck was a waste of time and money. It has grown back,but not how it was,but it's no longer a flat belly. I exercise before having WLS and I excercise now,and I will continue exercising,but I know the older I get the less I will be able to do,but as long as I exercise I know I will live a longer & healthier life. 1 2bhlthy reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You do it now then you married or have kids your tummy grows again & you will need another Tummy Tuck.< /p> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
