Was the recovery painful and did it take a long time to get to "normal"

I'm only about 5 weeks out. That picture was taken about 5 days post tummy-tuck/skin removal, so a lot of the swelling still has yet to go down.

As for the pain, for me the majority of active pain was gone in about 48 hours; after that it was just annoying dull pain for another week or so, but I have a high tolerance. He says typically 4 days with the tuck, but to be honest, it was WAY less painful than the laparoscopic type surgery I had with the sleeve.

Other than that, recovery has been good; I was back to my normal routine (just slower and taking frequent breaks) about 6 days post-op.

That's awesome! I'm considering a Tummy Tuck after I lose 50 more pounds, to many issues with skin :(
