Tummy tuck update
WORTH IT$43,122
9 months post op results. I'm up to 153 ???? So I'm trying to lose but I can't! I was 147 when I had surgery in July. The healing process has been tuff. I still have odd pulling or busting feeling in the lower middle area under belly button. But I'm still doing ab exercises at the gym. I just can't seem to lose any I'm def holding on to fluid and still swell every day. Trying to jump start my metabolism n get back to where I want to be in the 140's.

Breast Implant Update
I'm currently in the process of getting a loan to pay for my implants. I was quoted already for a lift and silicon for $8500. I'd prefer not to have a lift. So I'm going with 400-500cc silicon under the muscle. Hopeing by choosing a larger implant will help fill out the loose skin I have from my weight loss. My stats is 30 years old, 143 pounds, 5'5 with 2 kids. Currently wearing a 36A/B cup.

Would like to see some results from someone who was told they needed a lift, but chose not to get one.

I think you look fantastic. I also think that you will be fine without a lift. I thought I needed a lift but my doctor said my nipples are where they should be and just an implant was needed. Best of luck. I'm getting the tummy tuck and implant together because it was so much cheaper to do it together and only once for anesthesia

Thank you :) I wish I could have done both but financially I couldn't. I wish you the best and I can't wait to see your results if you post them here.

Hi there! Congrats on your weight loss journey, it's especially inspiring that you have accomplished this while being a mother of two! You look amazing! Did you get your augmentation? If not, I wanted to share that I have a dear friend that also lifts and she found that under the muscle caused the implant pocket to stretch out resulting in lateral displacement of the implant. She had a revision and went above the muscle and is much happier. Just something to consider. Best of luck to you!

6 WEEKS POST OP
YESTERDAY 9/1/15 I WENT FOR MY 6 WEEKS POST OP APPOITMENT WITH DR. GRUBB. HE RELEASED ME TO START LIFTING AND RETURN TO WORK. HE SAID WITH LIFTING JUST TAKE IT SLOW GRADUALLY MOVING YOUR WAY BACK UP IN WEIGHT. I ALSO HAD HIM QUOTE ME FOR BREAST IMPLANTS AND LIFT. IT WILL COST ME $8500. I PLAN ON HAVING THEM PROBABLY IN THE NEXT YEAR. THAT WILL GIVE ME TIME TO SAVE UP MONEY. AS OF RIGHT NOW IM HAVING NO ISSUES OTHER THAN STITCHES POPPING THROUGH HERE AND THERE. I STILL HAVE SOME TIGHTENING AND PULLING IN MY STERNUM AREA.

I applaud you. You look fabulous! After losing 150 lbs. down to 145 I have my TT scheduled for Nov. I am weight lifting and toning, and the down time from surgery is a concern for me. Goals!
