I'm scheduled 12/16 for a tummy tuck, core lipo, and BA. Going with 400cc silicone. Tummy tuck is my priority, but I'm getting a little something for the hubs:). No, really I am afraid I'll regret not doing the BA now with 1 recovery and 1 surgical center fee. It's my chance!
Ive been reading on RS for years and talked about a TT as long as I can remember. My story is that I was a very overweight kid. Everyone in my family was. As I was getting ready for college I realized this is not the way it has to be. I've been a chronic dieter ever since. I've done a lot of trendy diets both healthy and not. I've lived and learned and am now living a healthy lifestyle as far as food goes.I love to exercise but haven't a lot in the last couple of months because I was taking care of my mom before she died. Terrible excuse, but I didn't have the mental energy to be intentional as I need. I was running 5k's in the spring and doing spin through the summer. I was more toned, but my size rarely changes. Around 170 is my landing spot. With all that said, I'm not looking for a pre baby body. I want something I've never had! My PS says I will be wearing a 2 piece after this. Say what?! I've never. I've had stretch marks and a flabby belly my entire adult life. I can't blame any of it on pregnancy!
I'm feeling a ton of emotions. I've gone through cycles of guilt (cost), shame (why do I feel like I even need this) excitement, etc. It's been weird. Im just a normal, happy mom from the burbs.

Almost a year out, I’m very pleased. He’s a talented surgeon. He recently did my scar revision.
I had a friend have a TT over the last few weeks with another office. Her recovery has been easier, but I can see it’s only because of Dr. Deal’s attention to detail that her Doctor did not have. He did a lot of sculpting that she didn’t get. Good luck!
