Ready to Go to the Flat Side After Kids

Finally getting the surgery I have been waiting...

Finally getting the surgery I have been waiting years for! Have four gorgeous babies which has taken a toll on my mid-section and at a stand still with all this flabby skin. It's so stressful when I work out to have my belly slamming up and down as I do a burpee or constantly tucking it into pants and still feel that dangle as I do a push-up. Would love to just feel beautiful and wear a swimsuit with no worries again and feel comfortable. Extremely anxious about the recovery I guess but trying to trump that with the positivity of getting to the flat side. This site has been phenomenal for helping ease my fears so thanks to you all out there taking the time to help others through their questions. Some pics of me from a few days ago. Taking a lot out of me to even post them but can't wait to see my after pics! Praying for a healthy, safe and speedy recovery.

Response from Dr. Rex:
You are very kind to share your experience with others. I hope you look back at these first difficult weeks as a good trade-off for a nice, new physique.

The countdown is on...six days and counting. Nerves definitely in full effect! Can't wait to see those results. Keep reminding myself to not be too horrified right after and know that I WILL get there in time. Worried about not being able to workout at all for two weeks at least... not sure how I can stand that. Although my surgeon does say that I won't want to do anything right after. Wooosahhh...

I will write more about my experience once my vision. Is not blurry due to the anti-nausea patch on my ear has come off which should be tomorrow. Just had a bad episode where I almost passed out going into bed so hubby and children. Assisted me to lay down and raise feet. I can't believe I can see my vagina!!!! Tmi I know but it is what it is... looks so good right now even though I'm majorly swollen so I can't wait to see the final result.
