I am a 31 year old mother of 5. After five pregnancys and several years of breastfeeding my body is so worn out!! It needs a lift to say the least. I have decided to have a breast lift with implants and a tummy tuck. I had never been one to care about saggy breasts/skin but over the past year I have really become a fitness fanatic and started bodybuilding and would love to see all my hard work show through. I would also love one day to actually compete on stage.

I had my firs pre-op appt. today. My surgery was moved up to October 3rd I am getting nervous. I have to get my blood work done today. I guess I just have a fear of them putting me to sleep and me not waking up. I don't mind the pain afterwards just don't like being put to sleep:( Starting to feel the guilt come on that I am being selfish and vain. I have the most wonderful husband in the world he keeps reassuring me everything will be ok. He rather me not have the surgery because he doesn't like seeing me in pain, but he knows how bad I want it so he is being so supportive.

Wow, u should read my journal entries on here they r identical. I felt so scared. I barely slept 3hrs before mine. Day of surgery I cried like a baby in my car until I could finally just go in w my hubby. And then seriously, it was over before I even knew it started. Woke up, never got sick at all and was really alert. U will be fine. And as far as guilt, vainity..I felt the same but uknow...we need to love ourselves and take care of ourselves. Its just a brief moment that we go throught this process and then it's back to momma quality time and its a plus because u feel so beautiful.

Wow!!!! I can't believe how inexpensive PS's are in LA. Just went to a PS in San Francisco and the same procedure I got a quote for $26,500 . I may have to look into your Dr. please post pics when you get your makeover... Best of luck for a fast recovery. :-)
