I've been every size between 0 and 14...currently about a size 8, 5'0" tall 132 lbs (hit the gym hard the past couple weeks and lost 4lbs / 1.5 inches off the tummy ...wooohooo!!)....and no matter what size I am, I still have a protruding, wrinkly looking belly....even more wrinkly when I lose weight. I've looked into having procedures done in the past, but not nearly as intently as I have these past couple of weeks. This is the first time I've actually gone as far as to have a consultation....which was a bit confusing (and the reason why I have a review for liposuction) but I'll explain in a bit.
So my goal is to have a "Smooth, Flat Hourglass Tummy"....that's its official name!! I have a friend who is really supportive (she's having SmartLipo done soon and she's probably the reason I've gone so far this time....she motivated me instead of hating on the idea of it...I love that....let me do whatever I see fit to make my body look the way I'd like it to...I mean I am the one who has to walk around in it for my entire life!!!) Besides her, I've told my beau....he's somewhat supportive! He feels like I can exercise and eat right (which I've been more consistent with doing over the past couple weeks) and it'll go away. I'll show him...once I lose some inches and the flab is still there, he'll see. All in all he says whatever makes me happy so he'll get with the program in time.
I'm thinking I'll have a tummy tuck with lipo to the flanks and bra roll. I am exercising to lose some weight pre-op because I want the best results ever!! I want to wear whatever I'd like to wear without needing Spanx or holding my stomach in for dear life! To wear a bikini without a coverup is my biggest dream!!! hahaha

Yaaaayyyyy! I chose my plastic surgeon and date!!!
So I've decided to go with Dr. Thomas A. Cochran. I had three consultations and he met both my most important requirements: 1. He does a great job and 2. At a great price. I'm shooting for February and I don't know if I can live with this anxiety for that long, but I'm sure time will fly.
