WORTH IT$11,200
It has been 3 years since I had my Mommy Makeover. If I had it to do all over again, I would go bigger on my breasts. I am still wearing padded bras! There is on place around my tummy tuck scar that sticks out a little more than I think it should but it isn't noticeable in clothing. Overall, I am pleased with the results. Again, I wish I had gone bigger on my breasts. They just don't seem as full as I would like. I have talked to my doctor about it and he said the results look so natural he would not suggest another surgery. They do look very natural. No one I've met after the surgery has suspected I had a breast augmentation. The scars look pretty good too.
As for the liposuction, I had a month before this surgery, I would not do it again on my thighs. My skin looks very saggy on my legs (I am happy with the liposuction on my flanks) and there is a line or indentation across both thighs that wasn't there before.
Below is a picture from today 5/24/2014. My stats are: 5' 7.5" 145 pounds. Age 45.

Post Op Day 11
This week has been a busy week! I got my stitches out on Tuesday and then went shopping for a new sports bra. Yesterday I returned the new sport bras because they were too big by Thursday! I am now about a C cup which is fine. To tell the truth I really liked the D cup look I had with the swelling. My husband did not though.
My left breast is still slightly larger than the right. I contribute this to two factors: 1. My left breast is still slightly swollen; and 2. My left breast was slightly bigger than my right breast to begin with. Overall, I am happy with them! I tried on some of my clothes pre-Emma (our 3 year old daughter) and was delighted to be fitting into them and filling out the top WITHOUT a padded bra!
The tummy tuck incision is looking great. I still have bruising around the ends and that makes it a little ouchy to massage but it is really nothing.
I have been walking a lot this week. It is really wonderful to be standing straight up! I am hoping to be able to start running again soon. No marathons, just some nice jogs.
I am having one problem: I am so used to buying Mom-Panties and padded bras I don't know if I can buy HotMama-Panties and feel comfortable!
I am posting some after pictures with this post.

Hi! Congratulations on the new you! I was wondering how you feel about the size boobs you got? This sounds weird to say, but your pre-surgery boobs look like mine. My PS said implants should look great to fill mine up and get the look I want. Basically I want what I used to have- a full C/D. My PS uses Natrelle silicone too. He thinks 300 to 350cc under the muscle. I'm supposed t take in photos of how I want them to look. Ha! If only it were that easy! "I'll take a set of a Heidi Klum's please, to go." Anyway, I'm thinking I might need a lift. Did you have one and why or why not? Thx!

Hey there UGAgirl! That doesn't sound weird at all about the boobs thing! I looked at several pairs on many websites. I looked at your post and I think we have/had very similar breasts. I think your thighs and hips are in way better shape than mine were when I started all this though!
First, I did not have a lift. My PS said it wasn't necessary because my nipple was above the bottom curve of my breasts. In my non-professional opinion, I think you should be fine without a lift. But listen to what your PS thinks you should do.
Second, I am happy with the size of my breast. I have Natrelle silicone moderate plus profile 339cc under the muscle. The projection (how much they stick out) is 4cm. I love the way I look in the mirror now. As far as bra size I am measuring a 34C/D. I am still wearing a full body compression garment and will be for another week so no bras yet.
I hope this information helped. If you have any other questions feel free to contact me. I hope your surgery goes well and you get the body you deserve! Keep me posted!

Post Op Day 6
I am feeling pretty great. The only issue I am having is I cannot stand up straight and it is really hurting my back. I would appreciate any suggestions on this.
Tomorrow I get my sutures out and I will post pictures then. I will warn you that I am pasty white so wear sunglasses to view the pictures or the glare may blind you!
