See Updated Review Below- Seattle, WA

I have been wanting a TT since 2006. I have had two children, one by C-section. I am a 45 YOF that has fluctuated between being very fit to about 20lbs over MY ideal weight the past few years. I am basically happy with my body except for my stomach. I don't mind being a little curvier. In fact, my boyfriend loves it. What I don't like is my stomach! Everything hangs, dimples or bulges. My clothes are uncomfortable and I feel frumpy because of it most of the time. I want the excess skin removed, muscles tightened and some of the excess fat cells removed so that I can go back to concentrating on things that matter and not on how I look. Wish me luck!

I'm so bummed I have to go out of town over the time that I had my consult scheduled. So... Now I am scheduled for Oct 30th. I have decided to get a second consultation too but, haven't heard back on what date they can get me in. If all goes well. I will be going in for my surgery over christmas break! I do have some pictures to upload and will do that now.

2 weeks pre
I just paid for my surgeries which will take place on November 29th at Newvue Plastic Surgery in Bellevue. I am over the moon excited and I think just as nervous! As you can see from my previous review I have been wanting a tummy tuck for years and I feel so fortunate to finally be getting it done! 5-years ago I never would have thought that I would be at all interested in a facelift... but... here we are... LOL!

When I read the review I started 5-years ago it makes me laugh and want to cry a little bit because I feel all the same things now that I did 5-years ago! But... I'm not gonna dwell on that! Instead, I will stay focused on how I am going to feel for the next 5 years to help get me through these next two weeks!

I think I seriously freaked out my Facial Plastic Surgeon. He has known me for years (he's been doing my injectables) and has never seen me as nervous as I was yesterday. Of course, he was amazing, listened to all my concerns, addressed them, asked me questions about my expectations to make sure that we were on the same page and then assured me that my expectations were reasonable and that I was going to have a beautiful outcome. Being in this industry I was surprised at how many questions I had for him. Some of them I already knew the answer to I just needed to hear him say the words to make sure I was thinking straight.

Dr. James Ridgeway (face) and Dr. George Min (body) will be performing the surgeries in their office's surgical center at the same time which will cut down on the operating time and provide a more soothing and private environment.

I will post some before's in the coming weeks... I just needed to get my review going again before I exploded with nervous energy! Looking forward to the flat side!
