WORTH IT$10,000

I have had two kids and the last child was a pretty big baby. I have lost a ton of weight in the past but just this past year I picked up about 20 pounds. I really have not been caring for my diet or anything. I actually still look pretty great to have gained 20 pounds. All my weight tends to go to my stomach and back. I have multiple rolls and my stomach is ridiculous. I figured I would never be able to lose this stomach no matter how many situp I do or how many times I works myself hard at the gym.

I'm soooo READY to do this. June 1st can not get here fast enough. I went to my preop appointment this past Tuesday and all went great. I feel so comfortable with my Dr. I'm having my surgery with Dr. Davoudi at the Atlanta Center for Cosmetic Surgery. His office is great and he is just overall fabolous.

Hi Drea, good luck with your surgery. You have the tailbone curve like me. My back feels so much better after my surgery. Are you doing muscle repair and lipo too?

Drea30

May 26, 2012

Hi Ana, I'm doing lipo of my full back and flanks. He is also going to do lipo of my upper adominal. I don't think the TT alone would do me any justice. I have tons of fat as you can see. It's crazy!! I so cannot wait until next week. I'm getting muscle repair. I didn't even know you could get a TT without MR. Those pics I posted are gross. I can 't wait to post after pics. How did you surgery go Ana?

My surgery went great! I posted pics with my review I am amazed with the results. I really did not expect to see my body transformed this way. I think my before pics are gross too. Just be patient post surgery. The swelling was bad for me. It took me a few weeks to see some results with my TT. The muscle repair is the toughest. But the tighter it feels the better result! I am thrilled now at 9 wks post op.

Hi Drea... I'm new to this site. I read your post. I do wish you all the best. I live in Augusta, Ga. I had my pre-op two days ago and I can't stop thinking about it. I asked my Dr to link me with someone he had conducted a TT on. This young lady told me about this site. I am 41. Married with two beautiful boys (10 & 7) they were 10 and 12 pounds. I had a c-section with both of them. I am 5'7'' and weigh 180. I have gone back and forth about having the TT for years. I have learned that most African American women frown against having a TT (I work in the school system and most of my caucasian co-workers all say "go for it". So I've learned to just stop telling people. My husband and best friend are very supportive. I'm scared and excited all at the same time. Let's stay in touch :)

I have not really told anyone. I just told my daughter. My boyfirend is very supportive thus far. I'm just hoping he continue to support me after the procedure. I'm 5 days pre op. WHOOT WHOOT!!! I'm so excited. I'm addicted to this site. I'm reading different stories all day. Let's definitely keep in touch. What date is your surgery scheduled on? What all are you getting?? I'm sure we both will do just fine. I'm have so many mixed emotions. Just hoping my results are as good as some of the results I see on this site.

Hi Drea.. I'm trying to get use to this site, so much information. I did not realized you responded to me until I check my e-mail... But my day is June 8th. I cant stop thinking about it. How old is your daughter? And why don't you "think" or have doubt that your boy friend wont be supportive after you have it done. (I forgot to mention im a counselor) so forgive me if I'm asking too many question :)

Drea30

May 28, 2012

I think he will but just hoping he is fully supportive after the surgery. Don't want him to get tired of taking care of me. Don't think it will happen but it was just a thought. Girrrrllll, so excited I'm 4 days pre op. So can't wait. My bid day is fastely approaching. June 8th isn't that far away. I'm sure you are pretty excited as well.

Ok @ boyfriend... I think having my list of things to get is kind of exciting. I prob wont go actually shopping till Friday (pay day) LOL. I did get my vitamins today... Krogers had a sale (thank God) buy one get one free. so I got a Kroger brand mulivitamin and 500 mg of vitamin C (my dr suggested it) hope it promots healing. well see :) So your pre-op is Friday? I took my smart phone and my hubby did a short video. (I look at it from time to time) for encouragement. Be ready to sign your life away, and to stand in front of the blue curtain for pics. Dont worry you will be fine. (Look at me.. trying to give advice) LMBO

My pre op was last Tuesday. I actually have my surgery this Friday. I feel a little unprepared. What's on your shopping list? I have plenty water and juice. I'll pick up more this week. Picking up more soup as well. Loving Acrobat yogurt. I've been on a liquid diet since this past Friday. Not too bad hut can wait to get some type of meat after surgery. I have been taking multi vitamins and getting bromelain and arnica Montana. Bromelain helps with swelling and arnica Montana helps with bruising. I'm getting lipo so I will definitely be bruised. Going to get tons of pillows for my recliner and a shower curtain so no blood gets on it. I brought so cute jammies I can wear around the house. Guess I needto pick up some granny panies and some cute ones as well

No PJs get the cheap Kmart dusters. You can pin your drains on in pockets or like I did I put the drain bubbles in my pocket. Get some fruit cups as well. I didn't wear panties my first couple of days. I used an old comforter over the recliner and ONE standard pillow under my knees.

3 days post op. Whoot Whoot. June 1st is almost here. I have so many mixed emotions. I think I'm pretty excited. So can't wait until its all over. Doing pretty well on my liquid diet. It's actually not too bad. Still have more supplies to get and then I will be all set. Not sleeping all that because my nerves are bad. Anxiety is kicking in. Pray for me guys

Drea30May 29, 2012

Very nervous.....I can't wait until this is all over. I never mentioned how this came about. My co-worker and I have been discussing all type of things that I could try to reduce this belly fat. Initially I had made several appointments to get a consultation about smart lipo only. Good thing my co-worker kept talking to me and said I should get the tummy tuck instead. I'm glad I listed to her. Don't think lipo alone or the TT alone would have done me any justice. All of this came about in a months time. Main point here is I never really thought about having a TT. It came across my mind but was always dismissed immediately because I never had the funds to do it. Consultation on 5/10 and on 5/11 I scheduled for surgery on 6/1. Pre op was on 5/22.

This my journey.....It's just about that time. YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS.....

I love the way your tummy looks. He did a fabolous job. I'm confident Davoudi will do a great job on mines. Not looking forward to the swelling but expecting it. Pray for me girl. I'm about 48 hours away from the flat side.

I kind of think I should have went with the mommy make over. I could use a breast lift since I hate wearing bras. I despice them. Anyway.....I'll be happy with the procedures I'm getting done.
