“upper and lower abdomen...”

Hi guys!I have been reading these reviews for months. I have a consultation tomorrow 01-31-12 at 2:45. I am very nervous and excited at the same time. My boyfriend doesn't approve of it, but he also doesn't understand that he is part of the reason I am doing this! Long story short, his ex wife is a knockout, and I found he was keeping pictures of her! What a blow to the self esteem huh?

Anyway, I can remember the only time I was EVER happy with my body was after basic trainning. My body was perfect... I don't know where I went wrong. I think it migh have been because in basic they starve you. so I came home and enjoyed the simple things in life.. ie soda, fatty cakes, SLEEP! I just got back from a deployment 6 months ago. I thought that being out there would help me lose the weight I did gain. We were active everyday! That was a no go. Come to find out I have a thyroid disease and the damn doctor told me at best, I would lose 5 pounds!! pfft

So here I am, Im ready to make a change! and who knows, maybe after all this, I won't have to be with the man that makes me feel yucky! I need to get my upper and lower abs done for sure! and for some reason my pubic area is now a FUPA... so discusting.I dont want my guy down there! for those of you that dont know what a FUPA is, please forgive me... i've lived with army guys for years. It the Fatty Upper Pu**y Area. UGH! I would love to get my flanks and my bra rolls done, but I don't have enough saved up for that. Maybe the doctor might take pity on me haha.

Any advice for me? I've done my research, practically consumed by it. How long, on average, does someone see results? I will keep you guys posted. Thanks for listening, I have no one else that really knows or approves of my decision!

I have my procedure scheduled for Feb21. I am so nervous. I have read so many reviews and have done so much research... but I still feel unorganized. Maybe its just all this excitment building up. does anyone have any tips or advice before going in?
I have read some people are taking anrica pills and the ointment... also the bromelain.
Does anyone know about the benifits? does it really help?

I'm kinda of surprised and a little disappointed. No one here seems to want to or care to help out and give advice.
I think I'm a little bit more nervous about this than I was going into Iraq. I'm saddend that no one really seems to want to give advice or help.
