Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.
How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

On Friday I went to the surgeon for my "pre-op"...
On Friday I went to the surgeon for my "pre-op" instructions and kit. I had to laugh when I tried on the compression garment they gave me to make sure it fit. I wear a size 12 so the nurse said that should be a medium and as soon as she took it out of the package I knew it was way too tiny! I ended up with the extra large lol and I was wondering how many people wold actually fit into a small and if they did, just how much of a tummy tuck they might actually need!
I had a few "before" pictures taken and the nurse shared some other "before" shots (no faces of course) to compare what my stomach looked like to theirs and then how much better their "after" shots looked. I thought they looked better in terms of the extra skin flaps being gone but I thought the stomachs and abs still seemed quite bloated or fatty and wonder if I am just expecting too much. Perhaps all those six pack abs photos I see in the mags are photoshopped - I have been working out hard for a year and don't even have "one pack"!! Thought with the skin removed somehow the muscles would ripple!! You will have to stay tuned for that lol...
Anyway I went to the lab and got my blood work done and an ECG and signed all the consent forms so now its a waiting game. One month to go and I am so glad to have this nice place to drop by and visit and to read and share all your journeys!

The countdown has begun! Sept 27th I am going to get this THING removed from my stomach and abdomen. One year of hard work, pounding the gym 6 days/week and watching my nutrition has not budged one single bit of my stomach flab. I have lost 45 pounds, lost 40 inches total around my body, and 12% body fat. I am a 53 year-old fitness machine! And yet - got this spare tire permanently attached to my middle! I am excited to get going and hope those of you that are going through post-op recovery or yet to begin your personal journey will join me in discussions, support and advice!
