Victoria can't keep my Secret any longer! TT, BL w/ implants, lipo--TX

I. Am. So. Excited.

I'm the mother of one child--a teenager--and since he was born, I've wanted this! Just to feel sexy and not have to always hide my tummy and overall sagginess will be such an amazing feeling. I hate that "OH NO!" moment when you think your shirt may have come up a little too high and your tummy might have made an appearance. I'm saying goodbye to those feelings and to my belly and boobies. My bellybutton waved goodbye to me long ago...all that's left in its place is a big fat wrinkle.

My procedure is a little more expensive b/c I'm having a full tummy tuck (which includes lipo of flanks and hips), a breast lift w/ silicone implants under the muscle (hope to be a D cup), plus lipo--inner thighs and axillary--that "baby fat" area under my arms that I have had all my life.

I love this site and seeing and hearing everyone's experiences are so encouraging. Thanks ladies!

Oh, I should add that I was also a teen parent, like several on here. We never had those 20-something bodies, so now in our 30's, we're getting them back, right girls???

Good lord. My pictures are terrible. Do I look that bad??? Eek!

I never realized how uneven my breasts are until I saw these pictures!!! I've just seen em every day of my life, so you just get kind of used to it, you know? I asked my 3 sisters on Easter--can you tell that one of my boobs is bigger than the other? They all immediately responded 'yes'. Gee, thanks. I thought Victoria was keeping that secret pretty well.

Guess not!

I never realized my boobs were "mismatched" until a PS pointed it out at a consult. My husband was with me. How embarassing. Now I see it, but never did before! Then, looking at so many before and afters, I see that's really the norm for most women.

I am having almost the same work done, FTT, MR, BR. My doctor estimates I will be under for about 6 hours. I'm wondering how long your estimate is...?

Ughhhhh every time I see that picture with my one big boob and my one small boob, I want to cry! :( I never noticed such a difference until seeing that. Now I see it in all my clothes and when just looking down at my chest or in the mirror. Ick! I am sooooooo glad I'm doing this!!!!!

I'm a mother of ONLY one child too. Glad I'm not alone! He's 13! If I decide to have another child in the deep future...I'll just get a mini-tummy tuck if I need it.

But all I'm doing right now is concentrating on my upcoming surgery in 10 DAYS!!! I'm getting a full TT, lipo of my back, flanks, & inner thighs, and high profile saline breast implants. I'm gonna post some before pics this weekend! We're gonna look great :)
Bye-bye Belly 1 May 2011
Woo! 10 days! Those high profile saline implants are gonna look great!

No more kids for me...only a couple years til I'm "done" with the care-taking of this one. :( I can't imagine starting over!

You're going to love your results! Thanks so much for sharing your photos and story here on RealSelf. Less than two months until you get a new bod. Looking forward to following along as you get closer.

you are funny about us never having bodies to begin with since we had our babies so young. my son is a preteen now and now that I think of it you are right. I have the same belly button issue, mine is non existent :( But soon I will have one!!! I havent posted my pics yet. Very nervous too but it will be a big step in the right direction. Thanks for sharing, can't wait to hear all about your journey!!!
