I am 31 years old. I am a size 10 and weigh 170 lbs. I have been working out since I was a teenager. I was a size 4/5 before I had my two children. During my early twenties I was a dedicated gym member and weight lifted and did cardio exercise. After I had my first child I continued to do the same type of training. I never went back to a size 5! I remained a size 10 regardless of what I did. I had my second child and now I am back on the same boat...a size 10. I am scheduled for a tummy tuck and a breast lift on May 27.

I am excited, nervous, terrified, and everything in between! I was wondering if anyone has had the two surgeries together? I am afraid of the pain, but I had a c-section with my second child. I hope I will be fine. I am taking my vitamins that were given to me by my doctor, and I will begin taking bromelin 3 days before surgery. I hope all these little things help me to heal. They were all prescribed by my PS.

It's four days until the big day! I am still very nervous. I am trying to tie up any loose ends here at hope. I've made arrangements for family members to assist me with my children. I am a grad student too, and I'm trying to read ahead for my summer course. I'm sure the first five days will be a blur. I hope I can recover smoothly because I want to be fine for my son's 1st birthday party on June 25th. In the meantime, I dream about being pretty again! lol

You are going to do beautifully!   Your day is almost here so hang tight and you will have the flat tummy in no time at all. 

Those babies do a number on our bodies:)   Well now it is time for mom!

I am told that the surgery will take 7 hours! Is this normal? Has anyone else had such a long procedure?

Well it's two days until my procedure and I still do not have a time. I want to plan the day for my kids. I need the information. Other than that I'm excited about it, and nervous about the outcome and recovery.
