Most Recent Tummy Tuck Before/Afters



Recommended Posts

Hey Robin ... thanks for sharing the Tummy Tuck pictures! That is next on my "body & fender" agenda once I reach my goal weight. I am familiar with your website and it was an inspiration to me while I was doing my research before being banded. Thank you for sharing your story and I can't wait to be looking as great as you.

I'm SO glad there are so many bandsters who aren't afraid to share the nitty-gritty. What's the scar like? I'm hoping that I won't have to have plastic surgery for anything other than a breast lift, but you look MARVELOUS!!! I'm counting down to August 5th and am just in a fog with the idea that I could ACTUALLY be average sized again. It just seems like it's too good to be true. I could ramble on this, but I'll spare everyone. THANK YOU FOR SHARING THE PHOTOS!!!! I wish you'd post some new ones on your homepage as well. What's the scar like?

You are my new hero.. that is on my todo list after I get to goal. I have so many scars on my tummy now that are so ugly. I figure that one is better then 6. How long were you off on this one? I know that this is much more of a major surgery.

Great job - you look great!

Now I know that I am not the only one that sees that tummy in the mirror(your before pic). I call it the c-section hang over.. YUK!!:(

So that's what they call it ... a C-Section Hang Over??? Well my HANGOVER has now lasted for 23 long years!!! I can relate all too well since I survived two stem to stern c-sections. My tummy has never been the same since. However ... Robin's pics give me hope that I too will be proud to sport around in purple one day!

I'll be a prancin' pony!

Hi

Well I've also had my TT done and I must say I am very happy with it, they couldn't do a full TT on me because I had an Open Band repair and they where worried about blood flow to the skin had they gone up under the scared area.

My pictures are on my website under the TT section also my photo section has my photo story of the past 4 years as I lost almost 300 pounds.

My TT was done early due to a port problem and they wanted the TT done to solve this problem.

Anyway Robin you have done very well and hope you can continue do so well always as all of us want to.

Robin,

My jaw is still dropped. Your doc did an awesome job.

Was the TT covered by insurance ? How much was the procedure ?

Also, thanks for linking to our site from your web page ;-) .

I have a question ...

Will everyone need a Tummy Tuck after the weightloss??

My skin is very sensitive, Even the bandaid that I put on the incision caused my skin to flare up. I don't think I could recover from a tummy tuck....

Hi Robin,

You don't know me...but I have been following your progress on your websight for months now! I started out around the same weight as you and your story gave me a lot of motivation to go for the surgery for myself! I am so glad I did! Thanks for posting your story and pictures! You are an inspiration!

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
