π Welcome to The Tummy Tuck Club β I'm so glad you're here. If you found your way here, you're probably in one of four places: πΈ You're thinking about a tummy tuck/muscle repair surgery but you're not sure you're ready, and the internet searches and groups are hard to follow and offering conflicting info πΈ You've booked your date (or very nearly have) and your brain is spinning with questions you're too embarrassed to ask your surgeon - OR you are worried you don't even know what questions to ask! πΈ You're in the thick of recovery β drains, fajas, pain meds, tears; when will it end and will I be OK on the other side of thisβ and you need someone who gets it πΈ You're weeks or months out and realizing recovery is way longer and weirder than anyone warned you Wherever you are β you belong here. I'm Martina. I'm 44, a mom of three (an 8-year-old and 5-year-old twins), and I own a CrossFit gym. I had a full tummy tuck with muscle repair in November 2025. I'm about 5 months out as I write this, and I'm rebuilding in real time β scar, core, confidence, all of it. I built this club because I spent months scrolling Facebook groups getting contradictory advice, aesthetic-only before-and-afters that didn't answer my real questions, and zero content from women who actually looked like me β moms who work out, who want their strength back, who aren't here for a Barbie body but for a real one that works. This is a space for real questions and honest answers. No judgment. No shame. No surgeon ads. π THREE THINGS TO DO RIGHT NOW π 1οΈβ£ Introduce yourself in the comments. Tell us: where are you in your journey (thinking about it / booked / recovering / months out), and what's the one question on your mind today? I read and reply to every intro personally. 2οΈβ£ Head to the Classroom tab and start with "What to know before you even look for a surgeon." Even if you've already picked yours, it's worth a read. 3οΈβ£ Turn on notifications for this community. I post 3x a week β Monday check-ins, Wednesday deep-dives, Friday knowledge drops and wins. Miss those and you miss the best parts.
