12 weeks tomorrow!

I am 35 almost 36 years old. I have been married for 11 years and I have 3 children, a 10 year old boy, 7 year old boy and a 4 year old daughter. I have been overweight since middle school! I am 5' short ( hahaha) and I used to weigh 190 pounds. I have lost 70 pounds total since Jan of 2011. I workout 5-6 days a week and eat healthy and have maintained 120 pounds for a year. I have a large pouch of skin on my stomach that will not go away no matter what workouts I do or how I eat. I wear a size 2-4 and I am sick of trying to lose weight ( and tucking my stomach into my pants) just bc I want my stomach gone when I am pretty happy with the rest of my body. My loving husband knows how upset I have been about the way I look, I have worked so hard to lose this weight and I want to be able to be comfortable in tight fitting clothes and he told me to go for it. I originally decided to do just the tummy tuck but after many discussions with my husband and my parents I have decided to get a breast lift and augmentation. I am a small droopy B after losing the weight and I decided if I was going to do the tuck I should do both as it is a little cheaper doing them together than doing them on separate occasions. I am not going huge in size just the sized used to be after losing weight and having kids! I am very nervous but excited and wish the next 5 weeks to go by quickly! I am ready to get this surgery over with and start healing! I will post before pics soon, just trying to get up the nerve! No one but my hubby has seen my stomach:-(
Okay so I ordered all my vitamins for per and post...

Welcome to RealSelf! Think of this as 'reconstructive' surgery. :)
You've worked your rear end off to lose that weight and you deserve to live in a body you're happy with.
Please keep us posted!
