I lost about 25lbs..its the excess skin that is so horrible!...I just turned 38 yestrday,i have four children the 4th child was 9lb 3ozs...about 1 1/2 yr ago i decided to loose weight..did that,but the excess skin was still there? So about 4 weeks ago i decided to have this procedure,i've often looked at my stomach and said if i could just cut this fat off? I work out 5 days a week, when i decided on the procedure i bought a weight bench for my home. I've got 3 days till the procedure,i've got my meds,foods,water,new pjs to change into,books to read...I'm excited and nervous at the same time ( i hate pain)..but as they say (no pain/no gain). My husband gave me the go ahead and do it (suprisingly) he is kinda old fashion...all in all it was MY DECISION!!!...I will share photos of before and after...after my procedure
