I'm not sure what to expect really. I've googled and googled things and still don't know. My husband isn't exactly thrilled about this. He thinks I'm just going to cheat. My friend thinks I should wait until I'm 50 and sees the BA as stupid. My other friend is jealous because she can't afford to do this so she has said I'll look like a [RS bleep]. I'm tired of no one understading that I'm tired of looking in a mirror & not liking what I see. I won't wait until I'm 50 and I shouldn't feel guilty for someone else's money problems/issues. If cheating is continued to be brought up maybe I will dam it.

Hi Becky! Everyone has an opinion, but the only one that matters is your own. You have to love your body. You're doing this for you, not your friends or your husband. I'm getting a full mommy makeover (tummy tuck, lipo, breast lift and implants) and I could care less what anyone thinks because I know how happy I'm going to be afterwards. A happier me = a happier wife, mom and friend. Hopefully your husband will come to understand that you want to feel good about yourself and want to feel sexy which will in turn benefit HIM. I'm sorry that no one is supporting you. Just keep your head up and remember that this is your body and your decision. My surgery is in two days! YAY! Good luck!

Thanks so much. After the 3D he was way more onboard. My friends will either come around or not. Having their support would be nice but not absolutely necessary.

wow I just read your post! I know it's a year later crazy but I'm so sorry I wish I knew then I would say join real self then I would've still been supportive for you. These journeys that we choose to do sometimes people respond in such a nasty way regardless of how they feel... it's just not about them! It is so important to go through this journey no added stress which means people need to keep their emotions and their thoughts at bay. You can only have positive around you it's hard enough when everybody's applauding and being there for you to go through this never mind having other people's anxieties self judging pushed on you. Looks like you went to a struggle with your wound opening, you look amazing in the after photos you were beautiful before those photos but you stay strong stay true to who you are when you decide you want to do something sometimes telling less people and not involving them in your journey is best. i'm 47 years old, I'm not Miss America but I am the most important women in my family's life. I just wanted to look in the Mirror and be pleased. I love myself enough to have done this journey myself. my oldest is 27 years old I've been really blessed that she stayed home a whole week to care of me my husband rearranged his schedule as well and that is all I told. I am the youngest of nine children and when I tell you nobody knows nobody knows . I just want you to know even though I do not know you I'm proud that you decided to do something beautiful for yourself. As a wife and a mom we tend to give 98% of us away every day. I'm glad that you commented on my journey I'm really glad I read yours.

Sorry about the last post and thanks for the kindness. I went to my ps a few days ago and got a look at a 3D image :) that's nuts if you guys get a chance to see that ever its totally awesome. Glad I did. I so don't want to go thru the bigger wish after its done. I'm sorta freaking out about the results though. I kinda have the habit of sucking in my stomach all the time. Anyone have that issue? I really don't even notice when I do it anymore. :/ I just hope that I get the results that I want and didn't hurt my possible outcome by sucking in when I was examined.

I'm sorry you're not getting more support from your husband and friends. I'm glad you're doing what YOU want to do, though. This is your life and your body. Here's a list of supplies for recovery. Please keep us posted. We will definitely give you support. :)

Just paid for the procedures today getting closer & becoming way more nervous. I'm just scared about possible outcomes. But I'm really thinking its going to be wonderful. :D I can do this. My husband has totally come around. So has a friend :) it makes it easier. I'm just feeling guilty for spending so much $ :( and nothing to show for it. That and really scared of the anesthetic :/ I think I'll finally post before pics too.
