I've never had a flat stomach and I swear to God I've ben wearing girlies since I was 13. I've gone and lost 200 pounds in the last 12 years. I'm at the point in my life where I'm okay with the rest of my body. I JUST WANT THIS MASSIVE STOMACH GONE! I want to be more than the girl with the pretty face!

I one up at the crack of dawn to see that RealSelf approved my profile and that it's now live. I looked at my pictures and was more down about my body than ever. I can't believe I look like that - especially because that's not how I feel inside. I just feel like my stomach is this alien thing attaché to my body. I want it gone. Even when I was 40lbs lighter it was the same shape, just slightly smaller. Still had the soon.

On another note, I was doing some more reading in RS and I'm going to reach out to Dr. Bootstaylor for a consult. She has some experience with BBW TT's. I just hope she's in my price range. Wish me luck! Here's some pics of me with clothes on. I needs to add them as a pick me up. I'm feeling too depressed about my naked ones.

Good luck and keep us posted. My tt was scheduled for this Dec with Dr. Cochran. Like you, I'm back at the drawing board. I've been stalking this site again trying to figure out what I'm going to do. I know my weight may be an issue for some. I haven't found a doctor with the great work for a great price like Dr. Cochran. I'm looking at Dr. Song in Deluth, GA which is actually closer to me. I was artery planning to lose about 20 lbs. I just don't know what to do.

I'm glad I'm not the only one in this predicament! We can support each other. I actually received a call from Dr. Bootstaylor' office and the patient coordinator Kinyana was SUPER nice. I have a consultation with her at her Conyers location on August 2nd. I'm hopeful about her in terms of skill (she has worked on plenty of us BBWs) but sill concerned about what her price will be.

Where is she located? I have a consultation with Dr. Song out of Duluth, GA next month.

I feel the same way you do. This stomach just depresses me, seriously. I too was scheduled with Dr Cochran for next month. I'm looking into Dr Song and also even considering Dr Pagadala. I just don't know what to do. Continue to keep us posted. You're not alone in this thing!

I'm going through this now as well. Dr. Cochran was my PS so I thinking between Dr. Bootstaylor and Dr. Song and my budget is tight as well...Dr. Cochran had quoted me $5700 that was for TT lipo to my bra line, stomach and flanks I just hope either of them can quote me close to that price range

With a tight budget you have to focus on the doctor's that have an operating room on the premises. Those are the ones that will have more reasonable prices because they won't have the to pay the fee for using a hospital's OR. Your just paying PS fee Ms anesthesiologist fee. My TT and lipo with Dr Song came to around $4600 and $2500 in anesthesiologist fees.
