WORTH IT$11,200

I'm 23 years old and have two children. Before I got pregnant i weighed 120,I gave birth at 180. I went down to 165 than got pregnant and went up to 175. I now weigh 150.

I have lots of sagging skin in the front of my stomach and huge love handles. I'm very excited to have this surgery done.

I had kids very young and I have never even been able to wear a bikini if i wanted too :( My daughter just turned a year old so she is still very dependent on me. I just hope I'm making the right desicsion to do it so soon after her first birthday.

Welcome! You will love this site! It was so helpful to me because I had so many doubts. Reading about other ladies's experiences will help you prepare for your big day.(I am 3 weeks post op) Just make sure you are aware you will need help for the first 2 weeks with your little ones and for yourself:)
Best of luck and let us know if you have any questions or concerns.

Thank you, I find this website so helpful and I know I'm not the only one out there.

I do have a question. Did you stay over night or go home the same day?

Some doctors do this in an outpatient surgery center so you will go home he same day.  And then some have you stay over night.  Each MD is different in their approach so just talk to your doctor and ask.

Most go home the same day.

I went to have a second consultation with my PS too ask more questions and see some pictures. I was very impressed. I put down my deposit and have my pre op apt on 08/19. I'm sooo excited. I feel like the days are going to drag!
