Just figured I would give a lil update to ladies that have gone before me and ladies still waiting to have theirs done. I love love love my results, even 2 years later!!! Having a tummy tuck done really helped me out with my motivation and drive to lose the weight I needed to lose. I was as big as I had ever been (besides being pregnant) and was completely miserable. Even when I was small I had the dreaded c-section over hang and it always bothered me and made wearing the cute low rise jeans impossible for me.
Having this done really drove me to the fear of losing my results that cost me a lot of money and I wasn't and still am not willing to let that happen. I am happy to say that after recovering and that long process (it was rough for me) that the last year and a half I have made fitness a top priority. Working out regularly 5-6 days a week and watching what I put into my body. I'm down 40 pounds and feel great. I enjoy running, which is something I never thought I'd do or love. And I love lifting heavy which has really helped the process. I'm not where I want to be yet, but oh boy am I ever so happy I'm not where I was.
My husband was deployed while I started my journey to weightloss and getting into shape. He was pleasantly surprised when he returned. :-) of course tho I put back on some weight when he came back from enjoying nights out and indulging in the bad food, but I never gave up working out and once I got back on track with the eating the weight I did gain came right back off. Weightloss is a weird long journey with ups and downs of the scale not just a straight shot to the goal. Which when I accepted that and accepted it wouldn't happen over night the journey seemed do able for once.
Anyways I'm babbling, hopefully someone is inspired by this post and hopefully someone still to come will read this and see that it is possible :-) I'm going to add a few pictures as well.
Enjoy :-)

Wow, your transformation is KA-RAZY! Crazy amazing. You look so good. I don't even have to tell you. You worked really hard before and after which must be like the cherry on top. Kudos to you, really. OMG i read abt that receptionist who left you on hold. I had a phone call like that today when calling my OB Gyn regarding if his office can give me a referral for a mammo. I can't even begin to tell you how bad she was at comprehending why I was even calling. I think she was asleep bc of a late Friday night. I gave her all the information as to why I was calling and she kept asking me "wait. have you been here before?" meanwhile I said that the doc running the practice had delivered my two babies (now 8 and 10) but that I was seeing the Nurse Practioner over the last few years for my check ups. She literally put me on hold for EVER. I hung up. She called my cell and her message was "call us back. you wanted to make an appointment."
um. no i didn't want an appt.... Sigh......
