“Surgery Scheduled! Counting Down! -...”
The surgery date is just around the corner... 10 days and counting. This is something I've wanted for a very long time! I had my first child at 16 - prior to that I was physically fit (ran distance in track) but the toll on my body was life changing to say the least. My daughter was born at a whopping 9lbs 12 oz and I went from 115 to 184lbs during that pregnancy. Since then I've had 3... more
“Mommy Makeover Feb 2013 - Northbrook, IL”
I am so pleased with my results so far. I've done my research for a year before my surgery, and consulted with 6 surgeons in the North suburbs. I chose Dr. Gutowski for the following reasons: 1) NO DRAINS! He's one of very few surgeons in IL that uses a technique that doesn't require drains. 2) COST. He is very comparable, and he advertises on this website so he does offer some great deals... more
I'm 8-days post surgery... Full tummy tuck, breast lift and augmentation, liposuction of lateral breast and upper inner thighs on 01/09/2013. Despite not experiencing the full final result as I am still healing and have mild swelling, i don't have the words to describe how happy I am with my new self! Dr. Ross is an amazing surgeon and did an astounding job on what I thought was a lost... more
“I Couldn't Have Asked for Any Better...”
I had 2 C sects over 27 years ago and spent most of the years since overweight. I finally lost over 125 lbs but the little skin left has always made me feel 'fat." I didn't have much extra skin, but what I did have just wouldn't go away with just excercise. I told my Doctor by the time I hit age 50 I was having a tummy tuck. So, the day after my 50th birthday, I was getting my tummy tuck and a... more
“I Cannot Take This Belly Any Longer!...”
I've always had a cute figure..natural large breasts, thick body and a booty. All that changed after my child. I use to have a TINY waist, very tight and like a six pack. I have yet to see that again. Everytime I lose weight, I lose it in places that I don't want to and notice things start to sag(breasts). When I was pregnant, I was probably an H, so I do not want to deflat my boobs... more

I am 32 years old and I have 4 beautiful babies. My oldest is 7 and my youngest is 2. I breastfed all four of them so with them being so close together that kept me breastfeeding for 7 years strait!

I am the mother of 2 kids ages 4 and 2. After my daughter was born, I was diagnosed with severe hypothyroid. I already struggled with my weight as a child/young adult...winning the weight battle at 23 when I lost 25 pounds and was 150 pounds. Once my thyroid stopped working, it became IMPOSSIBLE to lose weight. I was 165 when I became pregnant with my son. I went up to 183 and 6 months after I... more
“Over the Muscle? Ready to Do It!...”

“My Mommy Makeover Transformation -...”
