So I've gone to a consultation before and nothing ever came of it. My boyfriend at the time joked about getting it for me. I always figured I'd make vacations and home improvements priority over this. I've never had surgery so this is huge for me. I brag about my surgery free track record. I'm excited!

So this time in 3 weeks I'll be in surgery! Crazy! I am having a Tummy Tuck and Breast Augmentation. I am still in air on what size I am going with. I tried on sizers at first consultation and 450-500 looked like what I wanted to achieve with clothes on. The office called me and said because of muscle pressing some of it down, they have me as 550. I think this might be too much lol for my 5' nothing frame. So I am scheduling my own pre-op appt., since they don't do one past the consultation. So I am thinking more like 475cc possibly but we will see when I go on Dec 6th. Here are some more before pics and side profiles of my tummy.

I don't have any experience with BA. But from what I've read most are happy they go bigger because after swelling goes away and your noobs settle I think they end up looking a bit smaller??? Like I said I have no experience but I have read that quit a bit. But don't take my word for it! I could be totally wrong.

Yeah I've heard that and a few say they were way too big on them and got annoying. I don't want [RS bleep] star look lol. I just want some darn nice cleavage when I wear a bikini this summer! Going from a full A I think anything will feel huge on me. Plus back issues already I'm afraid of too much weight on me. Decisions decisions ;)

Yea don't go too big if you already have back issues! I am naturally a 36F and have back problems! I don't know why anyone would want that, lol!

Yeah I'd cry if I was too big. I live off darn ibuprofen if I'm walking too much or standing around. Can only imagine how it'll be when I'm hunched over for weeks. At least I'll be able to be back on my ibuprofen. I'm off it as of today and we'll see how well Tylenol does for my pain.

Are you getting muscle repair or lipo? So glad to find someone my height so I can see their outcome.

They said lipo of hips are included so love handles but not anything more. No Mr.

Do you not need muscle repair? I was pretty much under the impression that if you have a baby you need it.
November 26, 2013
Lol, I need muscle repair for sure! ! I've read that some girls don't need it and sometimes even opt to not get it

It was never mentioned. I don't think I need it. I can feel my tighter muscles all under the flab. So I'm hoping I don't have much muscle damage under there. I have pretty good ab muscles so I'm hoping the layers uncover some ad definition. ;) let's keep fingers crossed
November 27, 2013
I guess that's great if you don't need it but I'd ask before the procedure if I where you... Just so you make sure you are getting what you want. What did he say about your stretch marks? Can they all be removed? Do you know if they normally lipo the tummy if you have a little extra pudge?

I'd only have the stretch marks right above bb left he said. I will add your questions on to my list ;)
