I had had never weight problems in my live....since i got pregnant of my first daughter. I put on 22 kg (48 lbs) I remember looking at myself in the mirror after giving birth and not recognizing myself. So much i had changed. I managed to get most of the weight off with healthy eating and exercise, but the i found out i was pregnant again. verything began again exactly. Though i tried to control wat a ate, i gained around 15 kg (33 lbs) It was very depressing. To make the long story short: pregnancies were not kind on my belly. I had also big bellies, people looked like me and made comments and they thought a had a at least a triplet! lol..
I have been thinking of having the procedure done for at least three years. I just want my body back!
Operation will be on monday june 18th in Sint Lucas Andreas Hospital in Amsterdam. Plastic surgeon is Gijs van Selms, a very good surgeon specialised in reconstructive hand and breast surgery as well as breats augmentations and tummy tucks.
He is performing TT, lipo of the waist/hips and muscle repair. I will stay three nights in the hospital.
I'm really very nervous..... just 17 days to go!!!

I have began to take my two week-food supplement. It's the Pre Op program from Make Me Heal.
It has a lot of Vit C and other important vits. and mins. for fast healing after plastic surgery.
I am also trying to work out now that i can.
Have been very busy tiding up the house etc. Will soon pack my bag to the hospital :-)
I have also bought two sweat pants from Bad Cat :-) I normally only wear sweat pants to work out. But i have read that sweatpants come handy after a TT since one will be swelling and the abdominal area will be very sensitive.
This brand reflects me feeling (hopefully) sexier and more confident with a flat belly ;-) Also, the change i've gone through, not willing to always play nice and being more assertive :-)
