Abdomen Sculpting...Nervous...Excited...Mostly Nervous - California, CA

WORTH IT$2,200

I am 5'8" and about 150 lbs, I don't weight myself much. I am 36 years old. I am a fitness instructor and I can NOT get rid of my tummy! I work out in all different ways and nothing takes down my tummy. I am a mom of two boys, youngest being 7 and a step mom to two boys, 4 boys all together. I eat very healthy and have a glass of wine maybe 5 - 6 times a month. My mom works out with me most of the time and she too has a tummy, just a little larger. Hereditary!

I am nervous because I know my tummy isn't that bad but it is something that makes me self conscious. I wonder if I should just knock it off and love me just the way God made me, but then God made surgeons talented enough to get this kind of stuff done and it bugs me bad and I'm done whining about it...... soooo here we go with a little sculpting!

How do you feel? I can't be down long! I have a high tolerance for pain (2 babies, 9 1/2 lbs drug free, broken bones, no meds, and breast augmentation with Tylenol alternating with Tylenol Codine) so I hoping I can be up and about and taking care of my kids! I am scheduled for December 20th so I want to be a good feeling mama for Christmas!

Oh I think you will be just fine with that tolerance lol! I am a weenie and I am just sore. The hardest part is bending especially with the girdle. I would definitely say (if your the kind of mom to sit on the floor and wrap presents) have them all wrapped before your procedure. Try not to bend a lot the first few days and you will be fine. I was only nauseous the first time I took the garment off for a shower.

Getting nervous. I naturally hold my stomach in all the time and then I think if I really need to have this done. Then I get naked in front of the mirror and start laughing.... DUH! Do it! So I just moved my appt. up to December 13th because I don't want to be down for Christmas at all! I am buying my boys motorcycles for Christmas and I know they are going to want to ride them and I want to be somewhat healed to help them so I am going in a week earlier! I can't wait! My results may not be dramatic because I don't have alot to take away but I hope to just take that "pudge" out of my front! Whoop whoop!

Good luck on your upcoming surgery. I would tell anyone getting lipo that you would need about a week off before you start feeling better. I had abs, bra roll, and flanks done. You will have soreness and difficulty bending and getting in and out of bed the first few days. But day by day it gets better.

I am sooooooo nervous! I don't want to mess up my belly! I have seen some botched up jobs and begin to worry! I know my doctor is good but everyone's body is different. I want next Thursday to just get here so I can get it over with. I also want to be up and running quick! I don't sit well! I want to not have to take down time. I am having my fitness classes covered for 3 weeks during the holidays and I will miss it! Lets get this over with!
