I am a 36 year old mother of two girls. I have wanted a tummy tuck ever since my youngest was born almost 11 years ago and I was left with terrible stretch marks and a muffin top. I'm at my desired weight of around 138, and I work out constantly, but can never see my real results because they are hidden under what looks like 90 year old skin! I've struggled with this decision because I don't want my girls to have body image issues, but I'm finally ready to do something for me for once. Yet I'm still feeling a little guilty and a lot worried about what everyone will think about the boobs. I wish my parents were happy.... They say they are supportive.... At least hubby and close friends are supportive!

Try to think of it as reconstructive surgery...maybe your parents could get behind that more. I know it's a hard decision, but it sounds like you've come to peace with it and that it's the right thing for you to do. Keep your eyes on the prize and update us as your big day gets closer!

I'm going for a preop appointment this Thursday. Starting to really get nervous! I need to remember to do so many things before my surgery on April 4th. I'm so scared I won't get it all done. Dogs need a bath, floor needs to be swept/mopped, bathrooms cleaned, etc, etc. That's what keeps going through my mind. Luckily my girls will be an awesome help I'm sure.

I am a Housewife so I am receiving help from family during this week due to spring break for the kids and Next week I will be on My Own for the most part. I will not be able to lift my baby throughout the day, but other than that I will manage.

Well, I went to my preop appointment today. The countdown has begun! One more week! I need to post my "before" pics now and take my measurements. I have all my prescriptions at the pharmacy, and I have a ton of instructions to read over. They told me to drink lots and lots of water and stay hydrated. She said that was the most important thing. They took pictures from every angle of me in the nude. Awkward!!! Anyways, I'm excited and nervous. Glad they gave me some Xanex to take the night before. They told me to take one that morning too, and to try not to drink anything when I take it, but I can take a sip if I need to.
