tummy tuck info

Hi
looking for information from all you girls who had tummy tucks...
have you been able to keep the weight off so that all your efforts weren't in
vain? that's one of the things I'm concerned about...
was it worth it?
can you maintain the work that was done without constant exercise?

thanks in advance

Karrie
