WORTH IT$18,490
I am a 25 (nearly 26) year old mum of 3 munchkins aged 10,7 and 3. I am 157cm and around 51.5kg. I think that's about 114lbs?. I am hoping to get down to 50kg before my surgery which is scheduled for the 25th of September. I put on nearly 25kg with my first child and my skin has never been the same since. It is stretched and covered in stretch marks and I hate it. I have been for a few consults with different surgeons and have booked in with Dr Martin Rees. I feel really comfortable with him and i'm hoping he will do a good job! I am super nervous, and I think mostly scared about dying! I know that sounds silly but I have never been under anaesthetic or had any type of surgery and I am worried I am not going to wake up. Hopefully this will turn to excitement closer to the time... I will post pics of my horrible belly soon..

Thankyou! Every one on here is so nice, I don't know why I was so worried about putting up a profile! I can't wait to see your post surgery pics just a few weeks before me!

Hi your story and size is very similar to mine and I can completely relate to how you feel about your stretch marks. I am now one week post op and feel relieved that they are finally gone! I am yet to see my results but I feel great that I have done this! Hope everything goes well for you!

I can't wait to see your post TT pics as your tummy is definitely a lot like mine. It makes me feel a bit more positive hearing that you are glad you did it, hopefully I will feel like that in 5 weeks too!

I think you'll get a fantastic result you might end up with the old bellybutton as a s at as you're very petite but I think that's what I'm getting too :) I'm gettin more and more excited now and less worried its actually happening in 2 weeks today :D never been as scared excited nervous worried and ecstatic all at the same time lol

I'm excited for you and can't wait to see your results! I'm not sure what he is going to do, I have a pre-op apt on the 10th of September so I will ask him then :)

Finally told everyone
I have no officially told everyone about my surgery. My dad was the last person I told today and that was only because I was worried about his response so left it as long as possible. He surprised me by just laughing and saying "how do you do a tummy tuck on a straw" this is a compliment coming from my dad... He was very supportive though and said if it makes me happy he will fully support me! It seems my hubby has been the only one really to object to the idea. (it has taken me 3 years to talk him around) I was pleased I had told my mum a few months ago as she passed away on the 3rd of July, so I am glad I got her blessing and support before hand, it means a lot that she was on the same thinking as dad, if it will make me happy and more confident go for it.
So I am feeling really good about my decision today... I'm sure that will change again but for now i'm positive.
On another note my weight was at 50.8kg this morning the lightest I have been in about 7 years so super stoked about that! I'm sure that will change too but taking the win's where I can :)
