After breastfeeding for a combined 3 years, I had very little breast tissue left. I went with 300cc silicone Mentor Gel implants placed under the muscle. I am so beyond pleased with my results! Recovery was only bad the first week, then just sore with some specific movements. All in all, I would do it again in a heartbeat!
Ok, so I am SUPER nervous, but that's to be expected right? I started out "thinking" I might get a TT about a year ago. I was tired of the "pooch tummy" and exercise wasnt helping. As far as the breast lift? I just looked and felt heavy, even though I BF and had one child. Maybe I was looking for more perkiness but I also knew I didnt want implants and I was happy with my size. Around February of ths year I made up my mind and went on the hunt for a PS. I had three consluts (one referral from my GYN) and ended up with the first, my referral. My experience w/ the last consult was that the PS was cocky and arrogant. DEFENITELY not who I wated to use. The second option didnt sit well w/ the receptionist being the same as the "nurse assistant", maybe it was a slow day, maybe they had a call in. I decided I didnt want to use a "mom and pop" PS. The PS I decided on is Dr. Bowers in Greensboro, NC. From day one I was impressed not only with him, but the stafff as well. He explains things in laymans terms and has excellent people skills. That being said my pre-op appointment was today and last week I paid half down. HOLY COW!!! This is it :) I go in on July 26th! I am super super nervous. Did I mention that? My twin had a TT over a year ago, best experience EVER she said. I figure shes exagerating but ok. She did say it was worth it, money wise she had hers performed with some other procedures so her out of pocket was nothing. ME? Not so much. I know your asking, so heres the final count. $11,520. Thats a whole lotta dough. I think Im worth it. Ive done my research on the procedure, post and pre op, my PS and anastheologist and the surgical center. I decided on the lift only in the past two months or so. I figured get it done and have one recovery time. Ive hired a CNA part time for a few weeks and my 12 yr old son will be witth family then as well. Just me, my squemish hubby, my dog and the CNA. Sounds like a country song I know. Ive got my RX filled, bought Arnica and have TY and tummy stuff in a baggy. I am ready to do this and want it over with. The anxiety gets to me now and then. I guess thats normal right? Im not sure what Im forgetting to say but this is the beginning, per say, of my journey. I have pics but cant post from my Iphone. I'll have to fix that. ANY advice and encouragement would be great. My next update should be the day before my surgery. Wish me luck! Updated on 31 Jul 2012: Recovery is in progress everyone!! Tomorrow I have my first post op appt, hoping these drains come out. If not, its not the end of the world, Ill settle for just being healthy :) Updated on 31 Jul 2012: Got my breast before and after pics! Tomorrow I'll try to add tummy, hoping the drains come out. Updated on 1 Aug 2012: Ive posted my pics of tummy.....what a difference :) Updated on 6 Aug 2012: Had a lovely Sat night w/ hubby. I planned a night at a hotel I w/ chocolate covered strawberries and wine) and dinner. Thank god the restaurant was across the street as I developed horrible horrible stomach cramps after taking my first bite of my entree. I had already eaten a few pieces of bread and salad and some shrimp. Guess I wasnt thinking too far ahead gastro wise! But I muttled my way thru and let hubby enjoy his meal. I was NOT going to let this ruin everything. We were supposed to head to a cigar bar but hubby said nope, lets just chill. Well, my chilling ended up being in the bathroom while he watched TV. About 40mns later I felt fine enough to walk, so we went back out downtown and strolled. I bought a cup of coffee and chewy gas-x. Very romantic I know! Came back to the hotel and watched more TV...then I misbehaved if you know what I mean. LOL, I feel so childish typing this. Anyways, got to bed late, slept in early and spent Sun. aft running errands and making a 1.5 hr drive to airport w/ hubby to get my son. Hes been in FL for 10 days, so talk about major changes. My night ended w/ me biting my hubbies head off b/c I took a comment he said on the ph wrong and b/c I have stopped pain meds, but I found a muscl relx and took half. Needless to say, even after an apology this morn my hubby is still sulking. Oh well....the things we do. I have my 10 day PO appt today. Hope I have no bad news as I feel there should be no bad news. Im ready to start back at the gym, light duty. I still have my CNA coming, but once Im cleared to drive she will only come a few times a week instead of every day. Heres wishing everyone a great Monday and happy healing and recovery :) Updated on 6 Aug 2012: Had my 10 day PO appt. Nurse was amazed at my mobility. She kept saying how good I looked. PS came in and said he was very happy and thought I was past my two wk mark based on my progress...I kindly reminded him it was 11 days..hahaha, gotta give credit where and when its due! Scars look nice on tummy and breast and bb. No exercise for 4 weeks, Im bummed cause I thought for sure light walking on treadmill would be ok sooner. Im thinking, what good is a drop dead paid for body If I get fat in the meantime. Yeah, Im whining! I go back in two weeks, hopefully my sticky tape will have rubbed off and I wont feel like a piece of human fleshed velcro. I am backing down on my CNA's help excpet for a few times a week, not daily, as I can drive starting Thur. YIPPEE! My Jeep is in depression for non use. Hope everyone is healing andd tdaking care. Updated on 8 Aug 2012: Found silicone sheets and scar ointment at Walgreens, their brand. I know that palmers is the main one used on this site but I thought I'd try the ointment. My PS doesnt mind the sheets, I didnt know i'd find them local however. Spebt my first night in my own bed lsat night. That was an amazing feeling. Getting back to normal. laying low today as I assisted too much in my garage yesterday, no over doing it too much. As far as TT and BL. My scar is a little sore on the crease at the outer breast. Maybe from my underarm areas rubbing. My TT scar is starting to raise a little. Still have a "mesh" tape on it...looks very horrible combined w/ my stiches. Updated on 8 Aug 2012: added a few photos. Im waering my fav brand jeans but I look SO puffy. Im sure its the lighting LOL. My scar? Like I said, looks like Frankenstein.....not feeling that at all. I know I shouldnt be critical at this time, but I cant help it. Pictures are worth a thousand words and I think I have a gazillion in my mind right now! Updated on 13 Aug 2012: PO day 18. I am feeling a shift in my body. I have more energy and b/c of that cant seem to sleep (always had a sleeping prob but atleast I could channel my energy). I have the 1oo miles an hr feeling, yet I know its unreaalistic to over do it. I am bbummed that I cant exercise, shouldnt but want sex, get tired a little things and question why I did this. My TT scar is healing, but I now have a "shelf" over it. I HATE it. WTH? I look like a mini continental shift LOL. My lift scars are fading nicely and the steri tape is coming off ever so slowly. I have one stitch under my left breast that I thought was a hair...OUCH, yanking that was so not a good idea. Over ll im happy, but depressed I had to take such an extreme measure. I want to show off to my hubby, but that "trade off scar" is worrying me. I keep thinkng frankenstein scar and then the worrying starts all over. Not looking for perfection, just looking to be happy w/ myself. After a few thousand dollars I should be. Am I the only one here walking the line? Updated on 21 Aug 2012: PO 26 day. Im feeling good, but tired. I went to Savannah this weekend. Shopped on Sat. for two weddings I will be attending. Five hrs later I was SO ready for the hotel. The driving the night before pretty much did me in, I mean, driving and stopping for dinner. I went to the beach Sat. eve and saw a good friend...he said I looked "amazing". Hey, a girl needs compliments right? I was bummed b/c it was SO hot, but pool, hottub and ocean were off limits. However, the walk on the beach was relaxing. Came back to the hotel LATE and had to take another musl relx. UGH! Drove Sun. afternoon to Charlotte for the night w/ my son. We had dinner out and then back for me to rest while he played in the pool. Mon. morn I was back up, going to get my stepdaughter at the airport, then a few hrs drive home. I stopped at the outlet mall with the kids and walked more. I sure did a lot of walking and driving LOL. All in all I guess what im feeling is normal. I called my PS and explained I was feeling pulling in my abdomen and pinching on my lift incersions. She said it was normal. Im scheduled to go in next Wed. but if I still feel uncomfortable I can call back. I asked for a refill on Muscl relx as I feel they have helped me. Today I am chilling and trying to relax. Lets see how that goes. Updated on 24 Aug 2012: Just passed 4 weeks PO..WOOHOO! On that note I had a tooth removed today...my whole jaw aches. I was told rest, light diet, and stuff Im already doing LOL. Im getting into the swing of things more. My scar is looking good. Im using Vit E. and the silicone strips. Im still slightly swollen as when I put my jeans on me its a little tight....er tighter. I aim looking foward to wearing a skanky outfit for my husband. Did I mention I was at only 4weeks PO?? Yeah, I thought so. My Breast lift scars are looking good, Ive noticed a reduction in the scar AND my volume. I cant rememebr who on here said they thought their hubby was disappointed in the volume. I understand. I bought two VS swimsuites and neither hid my scar very well, bummed but atleast my stomach isnt all poochy. Updated on 26 Aug 2012: #31 day PO....went to the gym today and walked about 20mns. Kept it at 1.5-2,.0 mph. It was good to get back into moving about. I was already tird from being up early, but I did not nap. School starts here tomorrow, I figure I better get on a schedule. Im feeling more and more strong.Im also getting used to my new body Last night, I showed my hubby my new Breasts, He said "OH CUTE" LOL, Men. I was pretty nervous about it, but he calmed my nerves. Lets see how tonight goes :) hope everyone is doing well !! Updated on 27 Aug 2012: Added new pics. Second day of treadmill at a slow pace. Nice and easy, I have that covered :) Updated on 29 Aug 2012: Im rambling today, dont mind me. I Just reached 5 wks and had my PO appt. PS is really happy w/ my results. So much so he did some PO pics and said to come back in Oct. I can get in a pool, the ocean and exercise in a week. I guess when he said 4 wks he meant 4 wks from the date he said it...LOL. So I started "late" on Sun. OOPS! But Im not pushing it and wont go back till Thur/. Fri. He cut my poking sutures at each tip of my TT scar and on each breast..not a bad feeling more like a really big pinch. Then he said I had to massage my bbelly buton "like this"...and dug his finger right in....OUCH OUCH and hell that hurts. Atleast he asked if it really hurt, yeah, so I can feel there. So today I begin massaging my BB scar circle. Just the outer part. Drink please. I bought ANOTHER bikini..geez, its like a small obsession. But im worried about my skin as it wlll be sensitive. Oh and the VS chick had a breast red, so she totally got what I was saying as far as scars and hiding and what not. WHEW..So, ill post the two and maybe you guys can give me an opinion. I look very boxy now, it really bothers me. My twin, she had a TT too, looks boxy just like me. Another "dang" moment. Cant get no satisfaction but I can get a bikini LOL.....Hope you all are healing, living life and counting the days till you have your new you! Updated on 4 Sep 2012: Im just shy of 6 weeks and feeling good. Ive been cleared to exercise and stop wearing my CG now (as well as get in a pool and have sex..ahh, life is good!). Ill probably still wear my CG at night and when I feel kinda crappy. I have to rub my belly button scar every day and it seems to be coming down good. My scars are flattning on my TT and lift as well, although I wish they were gone entirely. Im going to a Kelly Clarkson concert next Wed. and then Fri. im off to beach wedding....I hope to be feeling much better by then. I havent seen many updates so I guess you all are doing ok. Updated on 9 Sep 2012: Im just past 6 weeks PO. Feeling great! Im back to a regular routine of exercise, eating and sex LOL. My scars are healing nicely however I have that same nagging pulling sensation in my TT area. Guess thats normal. Im headed to a wedding this coming weekend and then the week after beach vacay for a week, Cant wait to show my new self off :) Hope everyone is doing ok. Updated on 5 Oct 2012: Hard to believe its been 10 weeks! Time has gone by SO fast. I am back to a regular 4-5 days a week workout and my scars are healing nicely except for one spot on my breast. I think its a stitch but dunno. My 3 mth PO is in a few weeks and hopefully it wont be anything I have to go in earlier for. My clothes (jeans) are a bit tight in the scar abdominal area, and the inner thighs...boy they def need more time...sitting still for so many weeks worked a number on them AND my weigh. Im really happy w/ my perky breasts and dont regret not aving implants at all. Ive had friends comment that at times I look like ive had them, fine by me. I like not having to wear a bra either, cheesy but its so sexy and uplifting. My hubby is totally into my new breast, course he didnt mind my bigger ones but these are more compacted. Im still looking at coolsculpting for my flanks and my underarms, but not regular lipo. Hope everyone is healing and doing nicely. Ive posted a few comments to you guys, but I see some have not made it. Im still thinking about all of you :) Hopefully i'll have a few pics to update in the next week. Take care all! Updated on 5 Oct 2012: I added new pics....yikes! Updated on 30 Nov 2012: So. Its been just over four months and im moving right along. I'm still swollen in my belly button area. My breasts are FINALLY looking normal, you know, no swelling or vein stuff. The scars are fading nicely on my nipple area, under in the crease area they are bit red. Thats to be expected. My TT scar is flatening out more but its still very obvious. My BB scar is harder than I'd like but should settle. All in all I am happy with my results. My hubby is over the moon about my new "girls" and said they are perfect! In fact, I had a friend say that my boobs were huge...PERKY!! I said "why thank you, of course they are new and improved" :) Actually, I dont think they are huge, just lifted and more obvious. Still glad I didnt get implants as the lift was enough. I'm still looking at CoolSculpting for my love handles and arms. I swear i'm looking for perfection but IDK. Hope everyone had a good Thanksgiving. Its a great time to have a new body :) Updated on 11 Jan 2013: new pics, Almost at the six month mark, and I'm a little discouraged. I seem to have gained weight and borderline another size. I keep thinking it will get better...but I guess I lost a little when I was recuperating, maybe I should just give my body the time it needs. I am working out daily, on the treamill and weight s2x a week. Sometimes I go twice....just irritated. My scars on my breast are healing nicely, no bumps per say, the midle of my TT scar has some roughness to it, the sides seem to be smooth. I have a patch of fat on either side, my love handle area. I think its more obvious now that I have a flat stomach. I have to admit I like what I see compared to what I had before, but just as someone else noted, the elation has gone away. If I were perfect, I would be a barbie doll. I dont have an appt w/ my PS for my 6 mth PO visit, so I suppose I'll be making one. I have tightness and swelling, numbness and pulling. Guess its normal. Just wanna be able to look at myself and think " all that hard work and money paid off", but I cant. I've had better updates than this one, I'm sure I'll have better ones again. Hope everyone is doing well. Updated on 4 Nov 2013: Wow..what a year it has been. I have struggled with this TT girls. My scar is still very raised and I have had pain behind my belly button area for quite some time. I do not have a hernia. I have had unexplained weird "feelings" that amount to pain. I keep being told it cant be from my TT (muscle, seroma, scar tissue buildup, nerve endings etc). I had an apt w/ my PS but xx due to other apt to narrow down the problem. I was determined not to have lipo on my hips/love handles but now as I wear things I look bigger and I feel more tightness. Cant win for losing! At the end of each scar I can grab a small sandwich size amount of fat..but its not dog ears....what?????? OMG. So, the BA? Well, my breasts have settled but now I want more perkiness, and I wish I had gone w/ small implants cause the scaring might have been less, oh the scars. I think if my TT issue would settle I might be less inclined to complain. However, that being said I look better, I just don't feel better. Anyone follow that? I'll try to add pics later but I have not taken any in a while. PS follow up to be resch. Hope everyone is well. Updated on 4 Nov 2013: Here are pics from July, almost an exact year, I have some recent ones I'll post tomorrow hopefully.
It'S actually going to happen... that's what I keep telling myself. In 36 days I will have a tummy tuck, breast lift and lipo in my hips and flanks. I am a 40 year old mother of 2 boys (5 and 8). My story sounds like most others... After getting married and having children, I put on the pounds and weighed in at 175 (maybe a few pounds over at some point). I am 5'4' and and I now weigh about 140. I was in a size 14 at my largest and now I wear an 8 and sometimes a 6. My weight was always in my belly, even when I was skinny, before marriage. The "pooch" was always my problem but that is very easy to cover up with big shirts and tight pants. I became very skilled at covering it all up! Well, after the kids, my "girls" started to droop and now they rest somewhere mid-belly (without my size 34DD bra). I finally feel good about how I look in my clothes and I am ready to feel good about how I look out of my clothes. I want to wear a nightgown without a bra... actually I want to wear those really cute and sexy nighties with out a bra. I also want to wear strapless tops but haven't found a strapless bra that can hold my babies up. Long story short, I have always wanted to do this and never thought it would actually happen. I have read so many other reviews and I am inspired by the stories and bravery of all the other women out there. I almost backed out of the surgery after watching a few videos on YouTube... you know, the one where they show the actual procedure. It was so frightening to me that I almost backed out. Then I discovered this website. All the women seemed so brave and I thought that if everyone else could do it, so can I. I do not handle pain very well and I have also been told that I can be a little "dramatic" at times. Well, I admit that I am a little drama queen but I this could set me into a whole new realm of drama. My poor husband is more worried about how I will react to the pain rather than will I actually wake up from the surgery. Needless to say he is ready for the worst. I am a pharma sales rep during the day and I teach Zumba at night. My husband is a stay-at-home father (ie: unemployed at the moment) and I have no worries about him taking care of the boys and my house while I am laid up. I am just worried that I am going to go out of my mind with boredom and feeling worthless. I usually dont sit very long before I find something to do and I am rarely home before 7pm every day. On the other hand, I am so looking forward to just being to chill with a few books and spend some time with my boys. I will be taking 3 weeks off from work (so afraid that it is not going to be enough time). I hope to get back to teaching Zumba in about 3 months. I wanted to get my review started and I will post some before and after weight loss pics as well as pics of the belly and the girls. I have to admit that I am so afraid that I will be "caught" by a co-worker or neighbor and that they will have pictures and evidence of my nasty belly. I have them all so fooled with my strategic attire and I just don't want my little secret to get out. Thank you all for going on this journey with me and I look forward to following your journey as well. Updated on 23 Nov 2010: Added some before and after weight loss photos. Before surgery pictures of the tummy is on its way... Updated on 24 Nov 2010: Yucky belly pictures before TT... Updated on 24 Nov 2010: more pics... Updated on 13 Dec 2010: PRE-OP APPOINTMENT TODAY... and now I have a few questions for everyone. First, was anyone out there given Dilaudid for pain? I was expecting Percocet or Vicodin but I hear Dilaudid is a little stronger. I say bring it on but I was hoping to get some feedback. Also, my doc was a little hesitant in doing the lipo because of the increased risk of a blood clots so he is giving me a blood thinner the morning of the surgery and I will need to give myself a shot everyday for 5 days after the surgery. Anyone know anything about this? Overall, I am still really excited about my surgery but my PS is so conservative and refuses to paint a pretty picture for me. He spent a lot of time answering my questions and I feel very safe in his hands... that is the most important thing. Updated on 22 Dec 2010: Only 6 days away and starting to freak a little. I have read that a calm comes about you prior to surgery but when exactly does that happen? A FEW NEW QUESTIONS.... First, did any of ladies have those awful fatalistic thoughts prior to surgery? This morning I started thinking about the worst case scenario like what happens if I don't wake up? What will my friends and family think if something happens to me on the table? Will they think I was being selfish and risked my life over vanity? I know these are crazy thoughts but I just can't stop them! Also, I was under the impression that most people are given a pain pump. My PS told me that he no longer uses the pump because of some issues with the med releasing too fast. How many of you ladies used a pain pump and if not, was the pain bearable? Thanks so much for all your insight. I don't think I would be handling this so well if it weren't for all of you ladies! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!! Updated on 27 Dec 2010: Well, its the night before surgery. Actually, my surgery is only 11 hours away - WOW! I would be lying if I said that I wasn't petrified because I am. I took a Xanax and now I;m starting to chill a little. Went out to dinner with the family tonight and now I am getting ready to talk with my husband about the possible outcomes. I hate to bring it up but what if, by the slightest chance, something did happen to me, I want him to know what my wishes are. Did anyone else do this? You just never know... I am also so worried about this nasty cough and drainage I have right now. It's constant and I am so congested. We shall see... only the PS can tell me what to do. Well, off to sleep and I will post as soon as I can. Of course, I will have my laptop with me in recovery because I just can;t go anywhere without it! I will post as soon as I can. Thanks again to all the wonderful ladies on this site for helping me get to this point. Night ya'all..... Updated on 10 Jan 2011: 2 weeks PO - Feeling so much better at 2 weeks its incredible! So here's whats happened it the past week. On day 7 I went back to my PS and had my drains removed. Talk about relief!!! The pain of the drains was so much worse than any of the other pain that I was experiencing at the time. My skin was red and it burned like the dickens every time I moved. The drains made sleeping so much worse and I can't begin to tell you how much better you feel when they are out. I was so afraid of the pain I would experience when they removed the drains but it didn't hurt at all. My husband, on the the other hand, didn't handle things as well as I did. He couldn't believe how much drain was actually inside my body. His face turned white and he was reallly woozy at the sight of them being removed. Men....they are weak!! ha! I had a major breakthrough this morning. I have been a little disappointed that my stomach is not completely flat. I have a lot of swelling above the incision line and it just looks like another fat roll. A smaller fat roll. I didn;t have any lipo so I have been really worried. Well, this morning I decided to "inspect" things a little before getting into the shower and I couldn't believe how good my belly looked for the first time. My binder was tight last night and I think that all the swelling was gone for a short time this morning. I actually had that really sexy vertical line running down my belly and everything was really really flat. I had tears in my eye and my husband was so so so so happy for me. Of course, I was back to my old swollen self by the time i got out of the shower but I at least had the opportunity to see what the end result is going to be!!!!! My PS removed most of my steri strips today and my scar is really raised and funky looking. He tells me that it will all heal flat and straight. My PS is also very much against using any creams or oil at this point. He said maybe at 8 weeks. His reasoning was because while the scar is flattening the rubbing makes the scar wider. I am a little hesitant to follow his direction but I am gong to. His staff says he is very serious about his scars and he has a great success rate! I was told that I can drive now and most importantly, I can have ALCOHOL!! YEY! That Cosmo is calling my name!!!! I have one more week before I need to go back to work and I hope that I can get my energy back. That is the one thing that get me down right now. I know I am only 13 days PO but I get sudden bouts of exhaustion throughout the day. I hope this subsides soon. Updated on 22 Jan 2011: 25 Days PO - I have been MIA for a few days because I started back to work this week and boy was I ambitious. I was absolutely exhausted every night when I got home and didn't even open the computer. I can hardly keep up with the 97 posts that showed up when I finally looked. Going back to work was both wonderful and painful. First of all, it was great to get those brain cells moving again. I felt like my brain was mush but that's getting better each day. I laugh at myself when I thought my swelling was bad before going back to work because at the end of every day I looked AND felt like the Goodyear blimp!!!!!! One night my husband even said that I looked like my old self (pre-surgery) again (he has a way with words, huh?). My swelling around the belly button area and above the incision line is not getting any better and it actually looks even worse. I am starting to sorry so much that it's never going to go away. I normally need to workout very very hard to keep the weight off and I haven't worked out now in 4 weeks. I can't wait to get going again. I am thinking about going to another PS just for another opinion. Worst case scenario I will probably need to get a little lipo around that area :-( Updated on 28 Jan 2011: Posted oOne Month PO pictures today. I am still extremely swollen, I think (hope actually). I took the pictures first thing out of bed because the swelling is usually at its lowest but today was exceptionally good. I have been drinking so much water in the hopes that it will go down. I've decided that if it will make the swelling go down faster than I don't mind getting up 5 times in the middle of the night to pee. PS told me I still need to wait 2 more weeks to exercise and I just can't wait!! I'm not sure where the energy is going to come from but I will find a way. Exercise is what keeps me from blowing up so now I am just really watching what I eat. I find that high fiber foods make me bloat really bad in the upper stomach area. It's funny how after a TT you know EXACTLY where your stomach is because it wants to come on out and show you!! I realize that I have such a short mid-section that everything shows. My scar is healing but I still have a lot of puckering. I can see an improvement since last week so it's all about patience now. Based on my doctor's recommendation, I am not using anything on the scar until he says so. He showed me pictures of a few scars of his patients and I swear they are very hard to see after just one year. He says it's because too much rubbing in the beginning can make the scar wider than it has to be so he waits for it to settle down before applying anything. In contrast to my TT, I am very very happy with my "girls". I have had so much fun wearing tank tops and trying on shirts without a bra, just to see how good they look!! I have had to eliminate so many cute outfits in my previous life because there was never a strapless bra suitable to hold these babies up. Overall, I am still happy that I did this and I would definitely do it all over again regardless of the pain and $$. I am a very non-patient person and this is truly a test in patience for me!!! The swelling is so bad at the end of the day that my pants are screaming to come off!! I start the day with about 1 inch of give in the waistline and end the day testing the strength of the button and fabric. I am also expecting my period to yesterday I seriously looked about 3 months pregnant when I got home from work. SOOOOOOOO frustrating!! My energy level is getting much better as well and I look forward to seeing what the next month will bring to my new body! I also want to apologize to all my cyber friends out there that I haven't been on here much! I spend most of my day driving and while it's easy to read the posts it is really dangerous for me to respond and make comments. By the time I get home, get dinner on the table, put the kids down and finish my work I am too tired to type anything. I am sure you can all relate!! Just know that I am reading everything and keeping up with all of you and thinking of you guys everyday!!! Thanks for keeping up with my journey as well!!!!!!!!!!
