WORTH IT$7,000
So I wanted to have kids early in life so I had three kids by the time I was 30? After I had my last child I weight 240. Carried around the "baby" weight (lol) for about 8 years and then decided to go to the doc and found out I was a walking heart attack. I lost 75 pounds by changing my diet and exercised my butt off and kept it off for the past year and a half. I have wanted a TT for about a year but was concerned with cost and time off of work. Now I am just sick of looking at my loose skin on my stomach and said forget it!!! I am doin this NOW with the help of my dad and family and friends!! I am scared and excited allllll at the same time! I will post some pics way back from 2009 until recent, I hope this story helps one person out, it will make this all the more worth it :)

My surgery is in like a week!!!!! Sooo excited!!!! My hubby took me out to eat today because he says I won't be able to eat a lot next weekend and for two weeks after that lol. Paid bills for April, have to rearrange furniture so I can make myself a comfy spot but will probly do that next weekend. Bought a whole bunch of food to cook next weekend so all the familia has to do is go in the fridge and grab it!! I guess it's comin together!!!!!

I have a question.....some of the chicks on this site say recovery is not that bad but most say it is brutal. I took 2 weeks off of work and thinking it may not be enough. I really cannot afford to take 3 weeks off. What to do?? I am usually a quick healer but this surgery sounds like it can even be worse than a csection recovery. Advice please!! :)

I think your results will be amazing! I know for myself I finally feel like I have the body I've been working out so hard for :). It is a long recovery, but so very worth it. I am 14 weeks PO and just ran my second half marathon post surgery (#11 total). Cardio does come back! I started running again at about 8 weeks PO. Good luck to you!

That is amazing! I love to run and so does my daughter. We had jto put off a race so I could get this done and she was quite mad lol. She will be happy when I can run again. And so will IIII!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have to check out your blog!!! Thanks!!!!!!

Now that our surgeries are a week away, I wonder if this week well drag or get here quickly.
March 25, 2013
I think it will get here quickly!!! Kids are on spring break to keep me busy and work is always there lol. Have lots of stuff to do around the house too!!! Keep busy and time will fly. One of the chicks on here said not to eat alot the day before surgery so lets keep that in mind too:) Its a holiday so that is gonna be hard!

Wow girl, congrats on your weight loss you look fantastic & after u get rid of Freddy you are going to look Amazing!! Your hubby is right, it is a cruel joke. I guess just more punishment thanks to Eve & her stupid apple! FYI- I had a super easy recovery, no harder than a C-section. Only difference was my abs sore all the way to my boobs. It was a piece of cake. I did expect it to be a lot worse, not pain wise but just physically in the since I would not be up & about for a while. So just think the worst, then u'll come out all wow this is not that bad, lol!

I am just now returning to work this week. (Wednesday will be a month post op) but I will say, I could have gone back a week ago, but before that, I don't know. I drive a school bus so, I just wanted to be safe and take more time if needed because of my reaction time and having 38 little kids on my bus that were relying on me to get them to and from school safely. Their safety is my main concern. I say 3 weeks is best. (and again, depending on what you do)

I hear ya! I am a nurse so there is lifting and stuff. Maybe I will talk to my boss lady and ask for a few more days off.
