Soooo, I just realized that my surgery is at 12 noon on 12/12/12... is that a good omen or a bad one?
Also can't believe it took me this long to get that.

So the other night I had a dream about my procedure... I don't remember it very well but I guess everything went alright, which is surprising considering I'm constantly terrified I'm going to wake up during my anesthesia (or not wake up at all), have urinary retention, not like my results, what have you - I'm a nervous person by disposition. I have to say, though, I'm also getting excited... I keep looking at myself in the mirror and thinking, "Man, I'm gonna look pretty good without this tummy!" Excited to have it done with, can't believe it'll be done in just over a month! For now, immersing myself in my studies. :)

Hi, your scheduled for a TT the day after me... lets be TT buddies.... good luck with your preps. I think you should go for it.... your only young once. I agree with your thought rationale as well. I am a lot older than you and have had two kids (who are now teenagers) but we all come to this big decision for varying reasons, none less important than the others at any age... so I say... go for it. Look forward to speaking with you. Happy prep time (34 days for you ???) ... Suzi

Well, I decided to add before pictures. Hope I don't regret it for any reason... and hope it ends up being helpful to someone else.

Thanks for starting your story and adding pictures! As a woman who at age 23 NEVER wanted children, I would strongly advise against the muscle repair. I have three children now (age 37)...the clock started ringing for me about age 27. Anyway, I'd also ask the doctor whether a later pregnancy is more likely to cause stretchmarks ifyou have the TT now, and whether a pregnancy would affect the scar or skin above the scar adversely (I got stretchmarks around my BB ring scar because scar tissue doesn't stretch the same. Also if things were to get ugly after a pregnancy, would you be eligible for a second TT (including muscle repair) and what kind of results could you expect?

I think I am gonna skip the MR, because my doctor palpated my stomach and said that my diastasis is "mild, if present at all," and only in the lower abdominals. I'm pretty sure I don't want kids, and I know for a FACT that if I do have them, I want to wait until I'm at least thirty. My boyfriend and I have been living together for two years (and I'm pretty sure he's the one), but I want the two of us to be able to have a life together before we settle down and make that kind of commitment. And since I want to wait that time anyhow, it makes sense to me to look great when I'm still really young, as opposed to waiting until I'm in my mid-thirties and being flabby during my twenties!

Your thought process is extremely rational. I do not regret for a second waiting with children so that my husband and I could have many years alone together to live, first! I'd still ask the questions above, but not let it sway me from the TT. You should enjoy your body while it's young, and live with that enhanced self-esteem as long as you can! Good luck :)

Thinking about you this morning and sending hugs your way. 12/12/12 at noon is a very lucky number:) You are all good.
