Hi Flab U less,
Our stories are very similar. I'm 48 with two kids via c-section. All my weight is in my tummy and 3 consultations later, I am going for a 4th...crazy I know! Even our thoughts are similar. Hubby says it's elective surgery but now he's ok with it. I think of it like another c-section but with different results...one a beautiful baby, two, a beautiful belly! I will follow your journey. Hearing from others really motivates me to get this done once and for all! After 15 years of thinking of it...I need the courage to just DO it! Wishing you all the best and do keep us updated!
You look great RAD! I have had a consultation with the same surgeon. I'm ready financially...just not mentally.
It will only get better for you from here. ..:) Enjoy your new body!
From what I've read here, it is normal to have those thoughts. God knows I've had those thoughts everyday for years and now within literally minutes of scheduling my surgery....STILL hesitating...ahhhh!!
You have put so much thought into this and just think ahead of how great you will look and feel in your clothes. We're all here for you and this site is a great way to give each other confidence. You can do this!...:)
Another Texas mom here...:)
Keep up the great job TexasMom! I have been on an emotional rollercoaster myself and debating like a crazy woman to get a tummy tuck. I have always been petite with a sagging stomach after 2 kids and 2 caesareans. I am ready financially and physically but can't bring myself mentally to do this. I love reading your posts and you give me courage. You are doing great!
