Journey to a Much Needed Transformation, Tummy Tuck, BBL and Liposuction, Dr. Yager! - New York, NY

First I want to say how happy I am to have found this website, and I want to thank all the brave sister that have had the courage to share their journey to allow us to make a much more informative decision in such a delicate matter. Am 36 years old, 5'7", 195 lbs, mother of 7 ( ages 15, 12, 9, 7, 5, 4, and 3) .

After 8 pregnancies (7 live 1 twin still birth) I like many women , started to see my body like the aftermath of a natural disaster . Before babies I was never bigger than a size 6' and now I am close to a 14-16' I hate shopping for cloth , I look like am 5 months pregnant, it is starting to affect my self esteem so I decided to do something about it while am still in my 30's. I first consulted dr. Yager in 2002, I was very at ease with him, he was very professional and his staff was really attentive , he suggested a lipo of full back, fat transfer to the buttocks and a tummy tuck.... I agreed 100%, only the price was a little out of my reach then, (7000 abdominoplasty, 4000 lipo, 2500 fat transfer= 13,500 total), so I was sad I could not afforded then, but I decided to postpone it and start saving. Last Saturday feb 22, 2014 I saw him again and we decided to go ahead with the original plan. He explained that the full back includes the flanks and love handles, I asked him if we could lipo my upper abdomen too because I wanted better results with the tummy tuck and he told me not to worry that he would do it no extra charge, I was so happy!!!!!!, so I paid my deposit and we set the dates.... April 18 I'll get the lipo and buttocks , and may 2nd tummy tuck....

I can honestly say am not scare, I know I might seem odd, but am not afraid "yet", maybe is because I want this so bad, or maybe as time comes closer I will start to, but so far all I feel is a lot of anxiety , can't wait to be done.... I find myself thinking about it many times daily....I'll try upload some picture and keep this blog updated, please keep me in your prayers ....
