Im 41 years old, I have 3 kids. 17, 7 and 2 years old. I hate my hanging belly and my love handles are huge! I haven't bought me clothes for so long, I hate to even go shopping because you can see my "fanny pack " in everything I wear! I have been planning on a tummy tuck for over a year and I am less than a month away from it really happening. I'm very nervous, not to sure how I'm going to handle the pain. And I'm not looking forward to having those train tubes hanging out of me! I think that's what freaks me out the most.
I will also be having liposuction on my flanks.

I am so ready for this new change in me, I am scared there wont be a noticeable change because i am heavy, but i guess i will have to wait and see. My doctor said I am a good candidate.
I am nervous don't know what to expect, I'm hoping I have got every thing I need to get for after the surgery.
If anyone has any encouraging words I sure could use some!

I was nervous too about the pain, and I am doing great, 7 days post op. Remember to be patient with yourself and remember to love yourself no matter what.... That is where the true beauty comes from... And in my opinion, you are already there! We are there for you, cyber tummy sisters unite!

I've been battling the nerves this week for sure....I'm 11 days away from my surgery. I think its really normal to be nervous...this is a big deal! I'm worried about the results, if I'll be ready to take care of my house and family when my help leaves (11 days post op), and I'm really nervous about the swelling and if I'm going to look bigger instead of smaller. Hang in there!

Neen1971, I did my Tt,mr and lipo of flanks on April 5. My pain was more just discomfort from the muscle repair which feels like a tight corset on you that you can't untie lol. But it's not excruciating okay . You just have to stay focus and hydrated and walk around as much as you can okay because everyday you will feel such a difference in your body . Any questions you have this is certainly the place to ask everyone has been thru something and have a answer for any of your recovery questions okay. Don't worry :)
