Asked By:Hrnl2014

I'm 195. I do hot yoga 3-5 times a week and I walk 3 to 4 miles a day. I've lost 70 pounds in the last 3 years. I wang to lose 30 more bit I think getting a tummy tuck would help encourage me to progress in my weight loss and yoga practice. From June to July I'm doing 40 days if hot yoga and a strict diet. I assume I'll lose 10-15 pound in the process. I'm hoping to get a tummy tuck after I'm done with the 40 days. So possibly late July or early August.
