Tummy tucks shouldn't even be considered a "vanity" or "aesthetic" procedure. If men were the ones who got pregnant and had their abdominal muscles ripped apart then society would take it seriously but because it's women the procedure is considered more frivolous and vain. Your abdominal muscles are crucial to having healthy posture and they help support your entire torso! Not only does it negatively impact your confidence but it messes with your health and wellbeing long-term!

There is nothing more beautiful than when you prove to yourself just how strong you are.

Thank you for taking us on this journey! Not only did I learn a bit on tummy tucks (which I knew next to nothing about), but seeing your journey over the years come full circle with your body changing to grow and hold two humans to now seeing it shrink again is incredible. It’s like a sign of how your body reflects parts of your life’s journey.

I always tell my hubby, before having kids we not only have to save money for the kids stuff but also for my tummy tuck 😂😂

I’m so excited that we can leave comments! You’re looking so vibrant, Lindy!

It's looking great so far, girl. You are looking very similar to what I looked like after my tummy tuck!

Already a month! Time flies. Looking great! And you are always looking gorgeous 💖

I'm so proud of you bubz. I've been following and watching every single one of your videos since I was maybe 9 or 10 and now I'm 19. I've learnt so much from you and I feel like I've genuinely implemented a lot of values from you into my life. You've been such a great role model. I'm so glad you're teaching your kids to be grateful, kind, humble, selfless, fierce, and themselves! Sending lots of love from Australia

I had my first baby 9 months ago. It's been such a long process trying to love my new body. I also had polyhydramnios plus a 10lb baby and I honestly go each day despising my new body. I'm seriously considering getting a tummy tuck once I'm done having kids. I'm excited BUT not excited to wait a couple years until I finally feel good again :'( Also, Thank you for sharing your story! I remember when I found out I had polyhydramnios, I did some research on it and your videos came up! It had been ages since I last seen any of your videos. Nonethesless I'm back and watching your videos everytime you post something new

Thank you talking about your recovery period with honesty and showing your scar. The human body has an amazing ability to heal. I hope your continued healing goes well and your future is blessed.

Thank you Lindy, you inspire me to be a better person for myself and my daughter.. Been watching you since 2010.

I never fast forward in any of your videos Bubz!!! Even the part where you were taking off the tape kind of frightened me but I still didn’t skip it because I love seeing your journey and what you’ve been through. So proud of you and you definitely look so much better! Not only your tummy but you yourself are just glowing brighter these days 💖 Take care, love you xoxo

I think everybody watching your videos is in love with you because you are such a nice and sweet girl!! The operation went really well 👍🏻

I have watched you for years first via beauty videos and so so proud of how you continue to grow each day through every difficulty bubz you feel like family ❤️❤️❤️ the babies I call them my niece and nephew when I show them to my friends and family hehe . Lots of love ❤️

First, can I just say that you are an inspiration to your subscribers and you always had integrity and honesty ❤️❤️

Happy to know your ok and everything went well!

My stomach is just like how yours was. Now that I see all the work that they did on you, I don’t want it. That’s too much work and I scar easy. Thank you for sharing your results.

Hey I hope this message finds you well. I had a tummy tuck about two years ago due to massive weight loss. It was a difficult decision and the road to recovery was long. It took about a year for my swelling to go down, but by far the best decision I ever made! People talk about the aesthetic side, but rarely do they talk about the health aspect. My breathing is so much better, I feel like I have more circulation and over all feel healthier. Keep using the tape, I used 6 in tape by mm, and even use some silicon tape after 2 months, and use cocobutter for your skin around it to avoid stretch marks. Take it easy with the workout. I would definitely wait until 6 months if not longer. Everyone heals at their own pace.

So happy the op worked out for you! I would suggest putting an update in the description of the “miracle serum” video you posted a few years back and link this video. Many people still are viewing it (including my best friend who is dealing with this)

You look very happy, and at the end of the day that's the most important thing. Keep taking care of yourself and I wish you a speedy recovery.

You look great ! You’re beautiful !

I'm so glad your surgery went well! we all deserve to feel good about ourselves and I'm happy you made this decision regardless of what strangers online may have said. I hope your recovery continues to go well bubz!! ❤️

Your roller vid showed up in my feed and I watched. Then the "tuck" showed up. Looks like you made a well informed choice while dealing with other personal stuff and got a very nice result. Congrats on the outcome as of this clip and I wish you continued success on your path. You seem to make well thought out choices. Stay healthy and happy.

Bubz, so happy to see that you look happier and more confident about your body

Yay! This makes me so happy Bubz! The scars will heal. You have your waist/tummy back. I'm glad you believe in self love and accepting and loving your body and also got the surgery to fix something that you could and wanted to. I'm sure it must feel great. Always wish you and your family the best.

Hi Lindy! I just want to drop a anti-scar product recommendation that I used for my acne scars when I was in my twenties. It's a Swedish correcting gel called *Cicamed Scar Treatment* that works for all types of active scars, no matter where on your face or body (C-sections, surgical scars in general etc.). Using it consistently for 2-3 months helps fade and improve scars beautifully.

If your scar doesn't fade with time there are camouflage treatments that will give the scar a pigment identical to your skin so the scar basically becomes invisible. They are used for stretchmarks, scars and under eye dark circles and i've seen amazing results.

First of all, congratulations on doing it! Insecurities can take the best of us and sometimes, opting for surgery is the only thing that'll solve that. In an era of self acceptance, it feels almost like having procedures like this one are shamed but I think it's perfectly legit if done safely and for good reasons (an example of plastic surgery I don't agree with is when the patient literally wants to deform themselves to the point it's dangerous). I wish you a great recovery, babe! Live your best life.

That’s insane can’t believe it’s been a month already!! You look amazing, so glad you decided to do this for yourself!💜

You are glowing Lindy ♥️♥️ I love seeing you like this! Stay strong, stay you, always! 🥰

omg i could never be a doctor, i nearly fainted when you showed your scar especially when you took off that micropore tape :'D. But I'm glad everything is healing as planned and hopefully you will be fully recovered soon! :) Greetings and best wishes from Austria

Bubz, you have no idea how much I appreciate you sharing your journey with us. ❤️🥺

Budz is so emotional for me to watch this video as mom with 3 kids and I had my tummy tuck done too. Looking at ur before belly made me cry a lot. We sacrificed a lot for happiness family at the end this is what we got. I really hope you find a person that make you and kids happy. No more sadness no worries just live happily.

Thank you for bringing us with you on your journey! I’ve watched your channel for years and I truly think you are an amazing, brave, powerful woman. You so so deserve happiness!

So happy you’ve opened your comments; lovely to see you getting back to yourself ; love from toronto, canada

This morning earlier I was talking about a tummy tuck and dermal roller skin that made me want to think about seriously. You came up today and Im really inspired your challenge. It looks like you have maybe about a year to heal the line part, You look really great!

You're getting on rather famously... recovery-wise! . . . Congratulations on your ongoing & successful convalescence. Yes, you should be proud. Continues success, beautiful! . . . Live long & prosper; you & the wee ones! ♥

You are absolutely glowing Bubz

I never clicked a video so FASTTT I'm excited

This is such an amazing update. Thank you so much for sharing your journey it is so informative

Looking great Bubz! The scar length scares me but it's so reassuring to hear that your recovery says better, and painless! Except for sneezing heh. And please, who would fast-forward, it's just as nice to hear your story than to simply see a tummy pic 😊

This was one of the best TT updates and very informational. I’ve bought the bad board and micropore tape. Thanks ☺️🙌🏽🙏🏾

I’m so happy for you! I’ve been watching your channel for seven years (wow, where did the time go?!) and I love that no matter what, you help others realize we are all human and it is okay to be human. This means so much to me, more than words can say. I look forward to more on your healing journey! Much love from the states ♥️

Bubz: Starts video in glam Me: Oh snap, hold up, okay then girl, YES MAAM Any chance we could get a tutorial on your look Bubz? I love it! Hope you continue to heal beautifully 😊

You are incredible Bubz. You deserve everything good. I hope your recovery continues well. 😊

Omg finally...I've wanted to tell u this for MONTHS but your children are soooooo adorable

Remarkable results! And your cheerful, but realistic attitude is equally as beautiful. Thank you, for sharing your experience with us!

Can I just say how proud I am about you bubz! I'm very happy you made the decision to do the tummy tuck, it's such an amazing and fascinating process so far! I Will always support you!

Bubz, I haven't watched you in years, though it's so good to see how you're doing! You've always been an inspiration to me. I've been trying to set my goal of getting a breast augmentation & I've been seeing so many women being inspiring & uplifting about achieving a goal. I've watched other other videos about your procedure as well. Coming here seeing yet another woman being so positive about a transformation that will make them happy is even more inspiring. My aunt wants a tummy tuck, having lupus, she was put on steroids & they make her gain weight. Though the weight, 'tis in her belly. Though she's also on blood thinners, so she can't have any surgeries. She couldn't even have her tattoo finished because of her skin. She's started doing crunches in the morning before she heads off to work. I'm definitely going to share your experience with her. 'Tis good to see you're doing well & happy! You look absolutely wonderful & so does your new tummy! Stay bubtiful!

I had a scar revision surgery with a long scar above my belly button. It started out much like yours: swollen and very dark. It will DEFINITELY lighten and smooth out. Mine is still getting lighter and its been two years!

Bubz, you are really killing it out here. Praying for you! May you only continue to flourish queennnnnn 💕🌟

Ugh breaks my heart for you girl, to have all that stress, so glad you’re doing good and praying you get well soon!

I'm glad that the results turns out well for you! It's nice to watch your updates no matter how long the duration of your video is. Jia you gal!

Happy to see your recovery and your glow moving forward. ☺

I’m a 20 year old guy but this is very interesting hahahaha, glad to see your progress ^_^ God Bless you

You look like you’re glowing. I’m so happy to see you again. ❤️ hang in there, don’t rush to heal. ❤️❤️❤️

First of all, beautiful makeup! Second of all, I think you are very brave sharing your story about your tummy tuck. It can be very daunting and make you feel vulnerable. It has been so interesting to see you prepare for the surgery then the aftermath. I wish all the best for your recovery :).

It has been so uplifting to see you share your journey with us all, you are an inspiration! ❤️

“I’m so pleased with myself as well 💪” Omg, yes girl!!! ❤️

I did not have a tummy tuck, but I had to have a full blown hysterectomy. They cut me from side to side and slipped in a type of tube that held the whole area open so that they could work, and I was kept 'open' like that for 2.5 hours. The hysterectomy was seriously needed, and long story short, cysts had to be 'scraped' off all the intestines, so it took a while. So I totally understand what she is talking about in reference to sneezing. You do not realize just how much you use your stomach muscles until you get cut in the abdomen area. Sneezing, coughing, laughing, picking things up; getting up from sitting; bending over and straightening back up. Even reaching up with an arm. All of the body works as a unit and a lot of our physical mobility depends on the abdomen. I do not even know if I would be eligible for a tummy tuck since I was cut open before, but I certainly do not criticize anyone who has one done. I am lucky in that I have been married for 41 yeas, and the baby belly never really was an issue for me, as the spouse had not problem with it. He knew that belly existed because of the two wonderful kids I gave him. But, if I was younger, and single, and wanted to date, I would absolutely get a tuck. Our society makes us so conscientious about our looks. When everywhere you look you see these picture perfect women slapping you in the face and men 'drooling' over them, how can you not develop a low self-esteem? People do not feel they need to make excuses for getting their boobs enlarged, why would you need an excuse for a tummy tuck? Go for it, if you can afford it. Do what ever it takes to make you feel good. Life is short -- soon you will be too old to care and then you will be dead.

SNEEZING! For real, I am 11 days PO and sneezing is the worst!! It’s so uncomfortable, I feel like my new belly button is gonna get sucked in lol. Thanks for your courage to talk about and show your experience.

Bubz I've been watching you since you first started your channel and what's weird is you got your tummy tuck the same time I got my nose job. I found out that my nose which I tried so hard to accept as a "Palestinian feature" was actually broken for ages! I had a Palestinian nose, but the part that I didn't like was actually a result of a fracture! I'm so happy for you and proud of you. You did this for yourself and it had a huge impact on your self-esteem and your health. You deserve the absolute best, especially after what you've been through. Diana xoxox

This looks like great progress! I’m barren 🤣🤣 just watching this video because I’m just glad you’re back 🥰🥰 much love to all the moms watching ❤️❤️

I’m sooooo happy for you and your road to recovery! Watching this brings back memories on both of my c-section recoveries. I did consider getting my be too but I don’t know if I can handle another surgery! I’m proud of you!! Stay positive and well!

safe to say your healthy lifestyle took a great deal off the recovery weight off your head. your exercise routine and overall wellness contributed to your great speedy recovery 💗🤙🏽

Thanks for pointing out that being bigger makes recovery more difficult.

Not every surgeon recommends wearing boards after surgery, and some surgeons remove the drainage tube the day after the procedure. I underwent a mini TT with lipo five days ago. I experienced significant pain on the first day and nearly passed out. My stomach feels too large and hard. Today, I scheduled a lymphatic massage with my physiotherapist to see if it helps. Overall, I'm uncertain if I made the right choice by undergoing this procedure, especially as an active and athletic person. Slowing down my life drives me insane. To anyone considering this procedure, please be mentally prepared as well as physically prepared, it is a difficult process not easy at all.

I barely follow anyone on KZfaq but i really love ur videos and very inspiring and you seem a genuine person ,thanks

Hey Bubz, so glad to see you are doing things that make you happy! You look great!!

You got the surgery, you are so brave! Congrats, it looks great!

I am so pleased your healing is going so well. Its great you see you excited about reclaiming your body. Sending lots of love ❤️

This is such a great reference video for anyone going to have a tummy tuck themselves. You really cover everything, thank you. It looks soo, soo great and I am so over the moon for you! You deserve this and worked hard on your fitness too! Good on you! Go girl! We are all rooting for you! Love your vlogs 💖

Beautiful recovery 🥰 physically and emotionally

Youre looking great and your confidence is really shining through! Thank u for sharing ur journey with us after all the years!

A month has flown by!! Good to see ur healing well and feeling amazing 💓💓💓

I really thank you for posting these videos with the process you are following, you have always talked in a way that is so soothing and happy that it calms me. I have considered doing surgery for removing excess skin due to weight loss and I'm still afraid to decide to do it, also I still want to lose some weight so I'm not ready yet. Anyway, the fact that you are so open with the information helps me understand everything that goes with it, even if I'd had to do more than just a tummy tuck, you're helping me a lot. Thanks again, you're amazing. :)

Nice Bubz! Always be positive and stay safe! Was worried but so happy the result is satisfactory!

That's awesome. It looks so good Bubz! So happy for you!!! As always you look great!!!

I was very surprised to learn that Asians’ scars don’t heal as well (or scar more easily??)?? is it really a thing? Most of my own surgery scars have healed really weirdly and slowly so this would make so much more sense... 😅 Glad to see yours is healing well though! keep going, bubz’s body!!!💪🏻

You are SO STRONG LINDY! It’s looking amazing so far!

I am so so happy for you, and also glad that the healing process has been so smooth.

I love your energy and positivity! Your belly looks so good already! Congrats 🎉

So incredibly happy for you!!!! Can’t wait for the next update! Happy healing 💕

Its been 1 month already?! I swear it was just last week you were vlogging the days leading up to the surgery!!

I'm so happy for you Bubz❤️ thank you for taking us in your journey.🥰

I was told by my Auntie that she had to be hunched over for six weeks when she had her tummy tuck and that's it was very painful. Your video gives me hope. Thank you for sharing and praying for your speedy recovery.

So nice to see you confident again and wearing crop tops! The confidence boost is really noticeable! So pleased you’ve done something big like this for yourself, good luck with recovery 🖤

Fantastic! Looking absolutely fab girl! incredible difference! Well done! 🙌 😃 Super proud of you! Big love! Kyle ❤💪

I only know you through your videos but seeing you happy makes me sooo happy ❤❤❤

I've been binge watching all of your old bubzbeauty videos ❤️ haven't done that in years ❤️ brought back so many memories

I think it's really cool that you're doing this. It's been very informative.

Wow you are so brave for going through such a process, you are a strong strong woman

Hey bubs!

im happy for you bubz! i hope you have fast recovery!

So glad your recovery is going smoothly!! Hope it continues to do so!

I usually cant stand these type of views, cause I get so, weak in the knees. But I was determined to because I too am goibg through this, and want a tummy tuck for myself. Thank you for sharing this Bubs! If ever that day comes, I'll make sure Im as prepared as you

I am so happy for you. You will be out of scars very soon. All the best ❤️

So happy for you Lindy! 🤗 all the best recovering !

Very good video! Thank you for sharing your experience in this very nice way.

Gosh pregnancy does some insane things to the body!! That’s nuts how it didn’t just change you cosmetically, it literally caused muscle damage that gave you back pain for years. OMG I’m so thankful that we have the science to fix things like that. It’s great to feel better about the way you look, but it must feel even better to be rid of back pain and to have stronger, healthier muscles again!
