Im a 27 year old mother of two beautiful daughters that are 7 and 4. I love all my curves that they have bestowed upon me except my stomach: its giggly, saggy, and riddled with stretchmarks. No matter how much I work out or how much weight i loose my little pooch goes nowhere. Im very healthy at 5'8 165lbs, but i need a new stomach.



I will upload before and after photos

p.o day#4 i finally got out the house.. saw my m.d . all is well and he will remove the drain next week. On a scale of 1-10 my pain has been a 3, i expected more pain. It feel like i just did 1000 sit ups. My lower back is killing me from walking hunched over, my md said i can straighten up but im so tight and im nervous about doing it. I have been walking like the hunch back of notre dame.. me and my fiance went to bennihanas for lunch and hung out at his moms house for her bday. by 2pm i was so exahuasted.

Congrats on your decision to go through with the surgery! My big day is March 4th and I can hardly contain myself. Im just beyond ready to get it over with. Curves are great! Saggy belly, not so much and Im ready to never have to look at mine again. Good luck, I hope you have a speedy recovery!

13 DAYS AND COUNTING.... i hope my expectations arent to high..im just praying that i wake up after the surgery. I have been having anxiety about that.

You will be fine waking up! I had worried about that too. I am most worried about the scar popping open because I am doing too much with the kids during my recovery.
I can't wait to follow along with your journey. Mine is scheduled for Monday March 28th at 8am. The silly thing is my mind has gone nuts thinking that Monday is a bad day to do it. Why would I be applying car buying dos and don'ts to a TT? Yours is on Monday, did that crazy thought ever cross your mind?
Mscherryberry 16 Feb 2011
No, I was never supersticious about the date..Infact, i would have had it sooner, but was trying to wait til after a friends party...lol.. i just cant wait to get the healing process on the road.

remember what you eat you will have to poop out! Be careful. You are going to do just fine. I'm praying for you as your day get closer ;)

Enjoy your cookies and pie! If you want to keep your taut belly, though, you'll have to tone it down a bit after your TT. If you haven't already, check out Kimmers' Tummy Tuck Survival Guide. It's chock full of great info.

You'll wake up and you'll have a hot bod. Can't wait to see your after pics. Thanks so much for being part of our wonderful tummy tuck community!
