34 Yrs Old & 5 Children....much Needed Mommy Makeover - Morris, IL

Just a quick update. I haven't been on for awhile because I've just been trying to let some time go by and let my body heal but I am very unhappy with my surgery and results. It's very upsetting and overwhelming to see how much fat I have in my upper, lower abdomen and love handles. My breasts look ridiculous and lopsided. The left breast is still high up and never dropped and almost 3 months post op. My belly button is huge and ugly. Tomorrow is my appointment with Dr. Burt and I'm not sure where to go at this point because I know I definitely need a complete revision and not sure I want her to do it.

I haven't been on for a few days, just trying to keep busy and let time go. I am trying hard to enjoy the nice weather we've been having but it's hard. I wear my CG 24/7, and it's not easy especially now that it's getting hot. If I don't wear it my "lumps" are noticeable. I look forward to these weeks passing to see my PS. Hopefully with some lipo on these nasty love handles will resolve my problem. I just wanted to post these pictures I just took. As you can see my flabby love handles still look the same. They just hang out so much. I saw my good friend this last weekend who had her mommy makeover in October of last year, (she looks amazing) she showed me her scar and the small scars she got on her lower back (drain holes) from the lipo her PS did with tummy tuck, I didn't have those so I'm pretty sure I didn't get lipo. My left breast hasn't dropped at all and I don't like them, yes they are fuller than before but NOT what I asked for nor wanted. Thank you all for your comments, and you all look good! So happy for all of you that are healed and looking good and for those of you beginning your journey.

Yesterday morning I couldn't believe the huge bruise that showed up on my right side. I feel like my body is just getting worse, its really swollen now. I hate looking at myself now, I'm trying to just be patient and let time heal my body. It's so hard because I've gotten a few comments with my lumps on my side and that's with clothes and CG on. Dr. Burt called me yesterday afternoon and we went over my concerns. She said I have a small pocket of fluid and my body will absorb it, I just have to wait. I go back in 5 weeks and we'll re look at me then. I really believe I didn't have lipo on my flanks done just tummy tuck and now thats why they stick out so much because my stomach is flat. As I told her everyone's body is different and even though I am a thin person I have always had my weight problem in that area. I know that I won't be wearing 2 piece anytime soon. I am happy that Dr. Burt has followed up and she knows how I feel and she's more than willing to revise this situation, we just have to wait. My left breast hasn't dropped either so that looks really weird too. :'(
