Hi I am a 30 yr old mother of 2(boy & girl) can say 3 if you include me husband! Lol
My oldest is 5 youngest is 9 months. My weight went down drastically after the 1st delivery but kicked in overtime a few months later! Well long story short, I lost the weight wonderfully over a long period of 3 years. I went from 179lbs to 140!( go me)
Well not even a year after the weight lose I got preggers with the second! (My husbands fault! He couldn't stand to see me slim!) lol
I gave birth to a double cheese burger deluxe!(aka my baby) he weighed 9lbs.
My  with the last baby was 220lbs!(that's pretty big since I'm only 5'6).  The weight dropped off much faster than it did with my first pregnancy, but not where I would like for it to be. And with the weight lose came the saggy skin and more stretch marks! So a few months ago I began to look into getting a tt.  Had a few consultations, did tons of research! And finally made my mind up to have my work done with Dr. Robles in the Dominican Republic. I'm trying to get things in order I have plenty time, my goal is to have my surgery in March.
This is a huge step for me. I have not felt comfortable in my skin for a really long time! I was one of those people that like to walk around (in my home) naked and free, now I'm uncomfortable undressing in front of my husband! He thinks I'm being extra but I don't like how I look! He was against me having surgery, but now he says he will support my decision. I have my reservations on telling some friends and family members, because not everyone that wishes you well means well. So I oped just to tell my immediate friends and family. I was super happy to find this site I've been hooked ever since. I have learned so much. I and going to try my best to document my journey every step of the way, and give any advice or information that I can. I would greatly appreciate any advice given for post & pre op, or anything! Thanks for reading fellow real selffers.
