I am a 33 year old mother of one. My daughter is 9. I don't plan to have any more children. I decided to have a tummy tuck because I have always been unhappy with the way my tummy looks. I had hernia surgery at a young age so I had a tummy before I had a child. I'm 5'4" and weigh 181 lbs. I am happy with my size 12 jeans. I just hate that I have love handles in the front, back and center when I wear them. I don't want to lose weight. I am just looking to have my clothes fit me better. My first appointment for a consultation is December 9th. I wish it was today. I am very excited. I just hope I can afford it!

Not too happy
Darn swelling!!!
Just take this one step at a time and do all of your research. Make sure to have at least 2-3 consults and ask all your questions. Write them down as they come to mind so that you don't forget anything.
Getting rid of the extra skin really helps in how the clothes fit. Focus on being fit and healthy right now. This will help in the recovery process.
