So here we go. I'm 34 and have 2 kids. A daughter this is 6 and my son is almost 3. After my first pregnacy, I bounced back pretty well. I gained about 50-60 lbs. Six months after I had her I was smaller than I had probably ever been.. Tummy was a little saggy if I bent over but It didn't bother me much. But then my second pregnancy ruined it all.. Well most of it is my own fault... I ate like I was never going to get to eat again... ALL DAY EVER DAY! I gained 80-90 lbs.. and it was in the middle of a very hot Ga summer so I retained tons of fluid... i was HUGE!!!!! It has taken me almost 3 years to lose it but I have finally done it. PROBLEM---- apparently myskin was never meant to be streched that much. I now need a TT and not only a breast lift but augmentation also due to the fact that my size D breast now have no density anymore...I'm very anxious to talk with my PS about my options. I don't really want to be any larger than a DD but I know I want implant to give me back the fullness. I'm also nervous about recovery time.. I don't do a lot of exercising...I'm trying really hard to make myself do some cardio and really work my legs between now a nd surgery time. From other Ladies on here I hear it can really help... Any advice would be greatly appriciated...

I have heard that stepping up the exercise can really help with recovery, too! Congrats on losing that baby weight. I sure know it's not easy.

You should check out JenBob's article about her mommy makeover. It's a great read.

Yay!!! I schduled today!! May 31st can't get here fast enough.. I guess it gives me a little time to get all my supplies and everything in order. It's all I can think or talk about though. My husband said he was beginning to wonder about me looking at boobs online so much..LOL...
