On July 25 2012 I will begin my Journey on getting a mommy make over. I am 44 years of age. In fairly good shape. I recently had an Implant deflate doing boot camp work out. That gave me the incentive to do my abdomen and a little lipo on my back.
My Doctor wants to do a reconstructive surgery on my breast on July 25 2012 then wait to heal 10 weeks. ughh.. He wants to take more extra skin off so the new implants wont sag or drop.
Then I wait till October to get the implants put back in and do the Tummy tuck. Im gonna try for September... ILL keep writing on my procedure and healing process. A little anxious.

Today im home just finished having a mastectomy. They cleaned me out... one had ruptured a month and a half ago. Im really happy that that's done. Now I have to wait 10 weeks to have my tt/ lipo and new implants put back in.

I was so nauseated coming out of surgery yesterday/ dizzy. Today is much better. Im taking tylenol and advil for swelling. The doc says Im at a b cup and will be ready to go back to d's later.

Im even more scared now to feel the pain of the surgery for the tt. Yesterday i had my hubby stay home and he had to do everything, i dont know what Im going to feel when i have the tt. O boy.

All is well today. A Little itchy i think Im going to change my bra its to tight around my stitches. When i came out of surgery i was so nauseated for 1 day after that. It took a little longer than expected they said I had a torn pectoral muscle. other than that... smooth sailing. 2nd day i had to move around and keep busy. 3rd day drove my self to Hair dresser. Today a little tired.. I have a check up tomorrow. Lets see the girlz. maybe my TT/ lipo/ implants will go sooner than October. So far they look pretty perky.

@brat I had saline. My doctore is asking if i want gel??? honestly Ive not heard to much on gel. I have another appointment with him next month at that time I will decide what size and what kind of implants are going back inn. Today I got a few stitches out and am pleased with this lift he did. I thought I was going to be completely flat but there is still something there:)) I went from a double 36 dd to maybe a 36 b? I will post pictures soon. So excited i cant think about anything else.. Im obsessing on this October date. My date has now been officially confirmed for October 15 2012. Victoria BC:)))
