I am 31 years old and I have 3 children (as well as custody of my late husbands other 2 children). I had my first child at 17 yrs old and gained 60lbs. I only put on about 30lbs with my 2 other pregnancies. A little over a year ago, my husband died and I lost 15 lbs in 5 weeks.
Needless to say, my belly is just...ewe...lol.I go to the gym amd eat right (with the exception of the occassional chocolate bar) and I just can't get that saggy skin to tighten. I am scheduled to have a tt, mr, and lipo on my flanks.

Awe...Thank you. I've been growing more anxious and I know its totally normal. There is a level of psychological trauma from watching as he deteriorated. It's def not the same scenario so I try to keep in mind that I will be alright and stay positive. I love this website. Hearing everyone's story and knowing they are ok is really comforting.

Bejewelme- Thank you for your support. No sob story here but I don't have a lot of support going into this. Sometimes the fear creeps up on me and I think about my kids but I REALLY want this for myself. I'm sorry for your loss. When we lose pple we love before we think we should it can be very difficult to deal with.
