I am 37 year old mom of a 7 and 5 yr old. I have totally been thinking of having a tummy tuck for over 2 years. I have been torn with the guilt of spending that much money on myself and for how vain it seems:) I started working out about 2 years ago and my body changed, my measuements got smaller but weight stayed the same. I was discouraged but kept working out. I now love my body.....except for this belly! My legs and butt wear a size 6 but my midsection needs me to wear a size 10:") I want to be comfortable! I started reading the blogs on this site and it has encouraged me to go ahead and just do it! I am excited, nervous, anxious, and scared.....and I still have 7 weeks until surgery:)

I think I am close to 5 weeks away from surgery now and getting excited! Reading the blogs is addictive and great but makes me want August 31st to hurry up and get here! It's nice to see that I am having many of the same feelings as many others. I have bad and good thoughts about the surgery. Bad are probably because I am scared. I sit and imagine what I will look like and cannot wait!
Will post before pics soon! Wish everyone happy healing and luck!

Restylane lift

Ive lost volume in my face in the last few years. I want my face not to be so saggy so I had Restylane Lift done last week. I think it helped a little bit. I couldve done more than 1 syringe per side but wanted not to look puffy. The injectionist was a very experienced nurse who said it could last as long a...

Step 2 of Mommy Makeover - Santa Barbara, CA

Where to start? I have three beautiful girls ranging in ages 28, 22, 15 years. Yes, I did say years. It has taken me this long to get the nerve to have surgery to get my sexy back. Although, if you were to ask my hubby he would say I never lost it. I am just over 5'3 and weigh about 135. I had breast reductio...
