I have set my surgery date! I am in Charlotte, NC and have a date set on December 27th. The perfect Christmas present for myself! I am excited and will upload pre pics soon. I started seeing a new guy about two months ago and have not told him about the procedure. I'm not sure how he will react. But I want this for me, to feel more confident in myself! I am worried about recovery time and something going wrong, so I try not to read too many reviews. I have a pretty high pain tolerance, so I'm not sure what to expect!

Hey Chica, I recently moved in with my fiancé and was worried about what he would think as well. I actually hid the surgery from him until the week of LOL. I think you should do what's best for you and what will make you happy and everything else will fall in line. We have about the same physique so your results will be amazing.

Thank you!! It is totally for me and I've told a few close friends. I think I'm just worried because I am small, a size four, but obviously you can see in the pics my problem areas and some people don't get that being small doesn't mean I'm happy with my body completely! Or that I'm toned the way I want. It all started coming on after I started taking birth control

I'm totally understand my friends couldn't understand why I wanted it either. Best decision I've ever made though. You will look great.

Hi! I had a consult and scheduled a surgery a week later. I scheduled the surgery date for a few months out, although they had openings the following month. It just worked better with my schedule

Moved up the surgery date
I moved up my surgery date almost s whole month. It is only about a month away now! Still waiting to hear from my friend if she is able to take off work to spend the first 24 hours with me. If not, I am looking into an in home service for the first day. I'd rather have someone I know, but I do not live close to family.

Pre op is on Monday!
I'm so excited but so nervous. I've arranged for a stay at home nurse to pick me up from surgery and stay with me until my friend gets off work to take care of me. My pre op is on Monday. I'll get my prescriptions and have blood work done. I'm only nervous about having to take antibiotics. They always seem to make me sick. Here are finally some before pics! I'll be having smart lipo on my upper and lower abdomen. The pic is making me wonder if I should also do my back.
