Full Tummy Tuck Fleur De Lis in UK - Birmingham, GB

Today i attended my consultation, can't believe how nervous i was for some reason i expected them to say no, but they went through my medical history and asked .. why do you want this? as i told him, I've been overweight for 15 years ever since my daughter was born by emergency c-section, then when she was 3.5 months old i found out i was pregnant again and due to medical reasons needed another section, depression set in and as the story goes i got bigger and bigger, well after a divorce, and finally meeting my sole mate another baby in and i realised i had to do something about it, I've now lost 4.5 stones and become a gym freak, but i have been left with a horrible apron which hangs, and a tyre around my waist and i was getting so low i spoke to my husband about this treatment and he was 100% behind me, that was until it all became real then he admitted he had fears, but today we spoke to the consultant who put both our minds at rest. when he examined me though he did say the fleur de lis procedure was the best for me due to the tyre around my waist, but would leave me with a vertical scar, as i told him i'm 36 and not doing this to look good naked or walk around in a bikini. i'm doing this to feel good and a vertical scar does not phase me (at the moment) so that is what i'm booked in for :o) i'm expecting a call on Thurs for a pre-op discussion and will be told when i need to arrive etc, so now i'm just counting down the days i feel like a small child near to Christmas again, my only fear is i have booked the recomended time off work ( 2 weeks) but my patient adviser told me in my line of work ( day nursery) she expects i'll need more time off but i will cross that bridge when i get to it. I will take before pictures on the day, hope this week goes quickly.

well i've finally broken up from work, i actually got emotional leaving in the back of my head i keep thinking what if i dont make it back? is it normal to worry about what if's or am i just being silly. i've wrote a letter for hubby just in case which omg talk about emotional. well today i've started scrubbing the house starting at the top and working my way down, as i've been told not to lift a finger for 2 weeks so i want to come back to a nice clean house, plus it helps the day go quicker, i feel like a child waiting for christmas morning and dosent seem to be getting any closer lol. I have taken my before pictures which was the strangest feeling ever. my hubby has seen me at my worst and it never worried me but since i've lost my weight i've never let him see the excess skin and asking him to take some pictures of me was heartbreaking it took me ages to drop the towel and let him take a picture i was nearly in tears. but was fine after a hug x but i've been asked to upload them on here but i seriously don't think i can. i think once the op's been performed and i can see my results i will be able to, but whilst i still look like that i dont want anyone to see them i've not even put them on the pc yet just incase anyone sees them and i've hidden the camera til its been done then i'll be proud the show the world!! i'm so excited as i count down the hours. so the next time i update my profile i will have had it done :o)

hi, well its all done and theres no going back! I remember being fetched from my room and feeling sooooooooo excited, i gave hubby and kiss and a cuddle and practically ran to theatre. i answered all there questions and signed and was asked to follow them to the theatre, as i walked through the door i was hit by the blinding white of everything, walls,clothes, sheets and furniture i took a gulp and climbed onto the table the nerves were here! i had my venflon put into place and a mask placed over me and told to take deep breathes then that was that. next thing i know i'm waking up in a bed next to a strange man, i'm shaking with cold and in agony i remember him asking what your pain between 1-10 and i screamed 11, he gave me some morphine and i went back to sleep. i then awoke in my room with my hubby and i felt ok to be honest and sleep the rest of the evening. through the night i did have lots of pain, i wouldn't say excruciating but it was very uncomfortable i would agree with the comments about keeping up with your pain meds as once the pain does set in its a sod to get rid of. my first time out of bed was like running a marathon i walked up the hospital corridor with hubby and back but then went very lightheaded and nauseous so dont push yourself straight away. came home yesterday done exactly what they've asked which is nothing just little walks around the bed or sofa but i'm getting bored as no one else is here during the day hubby couldent get any time off work but i'm coping so far. i haven't gone down the i feel sorry for myself route yet, but theres still plenty of time i guess. and i still havent seen my stomach yet as its all binded up until next friday, i really wanna undo it for a quick look then fastern it but worried i might end up doing some damage lol but even through the binder i can see some significant changes especially the folds from by my hips that keeps me going
