I'm 38 years old and hate my tummy. I have a 12 and 5 year old and have decided that it's time to have my TT done. I have slightly lose skin and stretch mark that goes on forever. I'm would love to get back in a 2 piece swim wear.

My family is not supportive at all and my mom scared that I may not survive it. I am in good health and will be doing the required blood work and for my comfort s EKG. I have recruited my girlfriends to help me out. I will tell my family once everything is done and I am home resting. Glad to have found this site be use I have learnt so much. I'm happy and nervous at the dame time.

My TT is paid in full. Told my doctor how nervous I was and he gave me script for Xanax and all soften if I get nauseous. Loritab for pain. Asked about swelling and pineapple juice and his nurse told me to get arnica and bromine pills to take. Wish I could upload pictures from my iPad. Also looking forward to break from work :).

Great review?

Good luck sweetie ;) I know exactly how you are feeling I though day of surgery I was going to throw up in car on way to hospital but everything went fine I had no problems what so ever. I was going to make a list on my site on things to make sure to have before surgery and I will tell you one right now since I can remember off hand ... get a bottle of stool softner. I took 1 at night and it helped me so much ;) good luck I will be thinking of you sweetie ;) xoxo deb

Welcome to RealSelf!

Oh and you will be in the two piece suit for next summer. Be ready for some fun shopping and new clothes.

I am sorry your family is not supportive but so glad you have your girlfriends to help you out. You will need help the first couple of week for sure. Your kids are at a good age to give you little bits of help as well. November will be here so quickly so get ready!

I would love to hear how you found your doctor and RealSelf.
