Well here is my story...I am 29 and I have 6 children and out of the 6 children I have a set of twins.I've been wanting a tummy tuck since I had the twins,Which was almost 3 years ago. I won't blame it all on the twins but they definitely did a number on my stomach.

I have a small support system and reason being I did not let alot of people know that I have made the decision to have this surgery because people can be very judgemental. I am not nervous at all. I am super excited and so ready to be on the road to recovery! I would like to be more confident in my body and look better in my clothes! This is also an early birthday present for me!

Yes girl you are so right, it is good to have someone from the same place to go through the surgery with. I did reschedule for February 22. We can definitely go thru this process together.

Today I paid my PS his fee of $4600.00 and last Friday I had paid my Hospital fee of $1650.00. The last fee I will have to pay is the anesthesia fee of 937.50 later this week. That is the total break down of the surgery fee. I feel like a little kid in a candy store, very anxious and excited!!! I am so ready!!! I haven't started to get my post op items yet. My plan is to do later on in the week or this weekend..Along with making sure my house is in tip top shape. If anyone have any suggestions please feel to share them with me..

Hey Kimmers,
I am so excited too!!! It's funny cause I am doing the count down now!!! lol Maybe in the middle of next week sometime may start flying cause the days seem longer then usual....I guess that happens when you looking foward to something that you really want so bad...
February 19, 2012

Yes that is true!!  The days will creep along until you get to 3 days before surgery.  Then suddenly you realize you have little time to get everything done.  Then freak out mode will set in..LOL    At least that's what happened for me.
