I'm excited, nerves and scared all at the same time. I've been viewing this sight for months now and have been wanting a tummy tuck for the pass 19years. I'm 42 years old with 2 kids, 22 and 18years. Looking forward to having my surgery done, Dr Salama it is! TT sisters please help me through this process!!!!

Great choice in doctors. I considered him but hubby didn't want me to travel.

@solesister our surgeries are a few days apart. I'm wishing you all the best. How long have you wanted this and are the nerves?

My date is tentative. I won't have a definitive date until next week. I have only wanted this for a few years because I was over weight and did not want to waste the money. I am super excited and eagerly staring at the phone waiting for my surgery scheduler to call me back with a final date. Can't wait to see your Salama curves!

@ Solesister I can't wait either. I'm on a diet now, as I have to lose another 16lbs before surgery date. I presently weigh 190lbs and losing weight is though when it's being done naturally.

You can do it. I started using MyFitnesspal app in February at 211 lbs and I'm now down to 179. Aiming for @ 165 for surgery so I'm trying to get the last 14 off too.

Today I told my mom about my surgery, it felt like I was 16 and telling her I just lost my virginity LOL! Surprisingly she says she'll support me if this is what I really want but she's not a fan of the idea . I understand her concern, as she's 67YO and had a stroke 15years ago and I'm her sole provider. I'm so excited and ready for this but still have my fears. Thank God I have her support as she means the world to me.

Nervous? Thats understandable, but if you have wanted this procedure now for 19 years, theres no reason to be nervous. Just be happy, that your able to do this! I wanted this for the last three years, I wanted it soo bad i was not nervous at all, even when I laid on the operating table. I was so tired of people thinking I was pregnant, and everytime I go around certain people in my life them always saying something about my mid section. Anyways, this site is perfect for communicating about your feeling through this journey. If you take your pain meds around the clock the first week, and rest you will be just fine!!! Also I almost didnt tell my mom, but I did and i was surprised when she was supportive because in the past she has not wanted me to have the surgery. So anyways I am happy for you! You will be happy too and as my surgeon said before, your old tummy will fade in your mind!!!
