Tunnel Vision for a Tummy Tuck. New Orleans, La

I am ready for this Fat to go! I work my butt off...
WORTH IT$7,000
I am ready for this Fat to go! I work my butt off at least 5 days a week and I see little to no change in my tummy area. I have a few supporters who understand my pain but I also have those who are totally against having surgery. I have one more consultation to decide who I am going to go with, (depending on the cost) I'm trying to pay 5k or under. I live in Louisiana but I am willing to travel because I travel for a living.

Found a Doctor and Secured A Date!!!
I've had 3 consultations in Georgia, Dr.Curves (TT Muscle Repair w/Lipo Flanks =7,950) Dr.Cochran ( TT muscle repair w/Lipo =5600) and Dr Ruf (TT w/Lipo =9,000) 1 in Destin, Florida Dr.Burden (6900) 1 in Fairhope Alabama Dr.Koehler (5900). I was so determined to find something close to home (Louisiana) at a reasonable cost but I did not mind if I had to drive.... So last weekend as I was scrolling on RealSelf I came across Someone who had their surgery in Biloxi,Ms. I quickly scheduled a consultation (Free) with Dr.Richardson and upon meeting the staff and the Doctor I felt a sense of comfort. I received a quote of 4,880.... And guess what...... I paid my deposit (250) and scheduled my date for April 20, 2016!!! I'm Uber Excited and nervous but determined to get this fat off of me. I wish I would have found him a couple months ago. I would have had my surgery by now.

You will be so happy! I contemplated this procedure for years. I too workout @5 times a week. My belly consumed my thoughts and nothing worked to get rid of it. After meeting a few PS I finally decided to set the date 4/5/16 with a local Doc. The day of there were mixed emotions, but as soon as the dr walked in and marked me, I felt a sense of excitement. Don't listen to the haters. Do this for yourself! Best of luck! So happy I did it (I didn't even see my full results yet as I'm currently healing). It gets easier everyday!!! Go girl!

Thanks and I made it to the flat side on yesterday and surprisingly my family was very supportive. I am happy and just like you I am only at day 1 PO and haven't seen my results. Best of luck to you too! I wish you happy and healthy healing !!

Countdown to 4/20/16
I've been working out more intensely due to my downtime after surgery, missing the gym is like missing a meal to me, but I will be mentally and physically prepared when the time come. I have a friend who had her TT done almost 5 years ago and although she's gain a little weight her tummy is still flat, but I see that there are a lot of TT revisions done due to weight gain..... How can this be prevented?? Seems obvious but I just don't get it
Don't listen to the haters, only share with those who support you 100%. The tummy tuck was the only thing that was going to get rid of my muffin top and I am glad I did it. Update us often and let me know when you have found a doctor.
