Hello All, My Tt with lipo is scheduled for Dec 7th . I am so happy. I hate my tummy. I was a teen aged mom so at 15 my tummy was shot. I am so excited to see the result.I love this site. I feel like I am not going through this alone . Reading others stories helps me prepare for my surgery. My pre op is scheduled for Nov.20th I have so many questions. I will post pictures soon.

Hi lJanna Are you having a standard lower incision TT? I understand your excitement about finding this site. I'm having a fleur de lis TT and I couldn't find any information on it until I found this site and other women who have had it done. I'm scheduled to have my procedure on 12th Dec.

Hi Fedup68, Yes I think I am having a lower incision TT with Lipo to my hips and flanks. As the days go by I keep telling myself in less than a month I will not have this roll.lol

yeh I know at first I was terrified but now I just wish it was happening tomorrow!!

It will be here sooner than later :)

As you think of questions, write them down so you can ask your surgeon. If you don't, there is a good chance you will forget what you wanted to ask. Good luck.

It's exciting isn't it! I can't wait to tuck a t-shirt into my jeans and wear a nice belt.

I know can't wait. My po was okay I only meet with the nurse and she said I will be fine after a week and off meds by day four . I had a concern about being about to walk upstairs after my tt because I live in an upstairs apartment and she was like oh you'll be able to walk upstairs. I am still scared ! Lol

Its day two po and I slept better last night. My back hurts a lot. I took off my binder to lossen it up because it feels so tight and to my surprise its my tummy that is actually tight . My mom and daughter are taking care of me. The night of my surgery my ps called my mom to check on me and yesterday my nurse called and left her personal number in case I had any concerns which was great. I can't really see my tummy yet but what I can see I like. I go back to the dr on Tuesday for my first check up.
