WORTH IT$13,400

What made me want a MM? Well i gained 50 lbs with my little girl 3 years ago. I only lost 20 of it & have a BAD pouch, if i stuck out of stomach enough it would look like i was prego again, I call it my kangaroo pouch. I have dieted & exercised for 3 years & nothing has helped me at all. Plus we have a genetic thing in our family that causes it to be extremely hard for us to lose weight. So that brought me to my MM. I am scheduled for September the 19th of 2011! Only 10 days away! I am getting a full tummy tuck with muscle repair & lipo on the back & sides & a Breast Aug with a lollipop lift. I am VERY excited even though I know im going to be in a world of pain but I know it will be 100% worth it when October gets here & the pain goes away! I will post before & after pictures when they are taken! :)

I'm so glad you get to have this done! Remember that you will still have swelling and soreness in October, but you should be better off than for the remainder of September. You're going to look hot for the holidays! :)

If you get a chance, check out JenBob's 10 Things I Wish I'd Known Before A Mommy Makeover. It's a terrific read.

I've also started a Facebook page called Moms Who Want Their Bodies Back, where we discuss plastic surgery, diet, exercise, and beauty. Come give us a Like if you're on FB.

Looking forward to following along with your journey!

Im so ready! I keep telling everyone that! Im ready to get back to the pre prego body! The dr thinks i will be a little better after the surgery than my pre prego body ever was, which will be a bonus! I added that FB page thank you for telling me about it & i also looked at the 10 things i wish i had known! Thanks a million. Im trying to keep my nerves calm & so far it is working for me. Im ready for October already! lol

Hi PoliceWife07. I'm near Birmingham and having the same surgery the 21st with Dr. Hedden. I'll be thinking of you and being glad my positive thoughts won't have far to travel to reach you. Have a great day tomorrow. Laugh alot, because it's going to hurt to laugh for awhile afterward. And, a good laugh will take your mind off of things. Take care!
