I have six kids ages 10,12,14,15,17,and 19. I have always had a pouch but after I turned 40 it just got worse. I workout six days a week. We looked into a tummy tuck a few years ago but the kids were still small and we didn't have the extra money. Finally the kids are older and we have the extra money. I do feel extremely guilty sometimes that I am using this money on myself, and not a family vacation. My husband is the best, we are more in love now than when we were married 21 years ago. He has convinced me this is something I should do and deserve. I am very excited but nervous too. My surgery is scheduled for November 6 at 8 am. I am getting a full tummy tuck and lipo of the flanks and saddle bags (saddle bags is such a bad name):)
My PS says plastic surgery is a work of art, so I am hoping I will look great. I am most nervous about recovery, our kids are very active in sports and my friends will wonder why I am not at events for a few weeks. My older kids know and understand, we are not telling extended family or friends although I am sure most would be very supportive. I am just more of a private person. Luckily I am a stay at home mom so I will have all the recovery time I need ....at least during the day while the kids are at school. I have bought most of the supplies my PS office recommended, and most listed on this site. I had my pre op apt last week, now just passing the days waiting. It's funny because some days I am more motivated to eat healthy and work out harder, and some days I have no motivation to work out at all. Did anyone else have that problem? Mostly I am so anxious to see the new me.
