I wanted to post a few more pictures of my body changes before the Tummy Tuck on March 17. This is me about a week ago, I am still loosing a bit but this will be closer to my weight prior to surgery. I lost around 30lbs from consult to surgery.

I am all SET! Two Weeks Out!
I had my pre-op appointment yesterday and I got all my prescriptions and ordered my vitamins off of Amazon. I decided NOT to go with additional liposuction of my lower hips in the back. He said he will do his damndest to lipo them from the front and he doesn't see them being a big issue and said I can always do CoolSculpting easily sometime if I choose.
I am getting nervous when I think about it! The recovery doesnt scare me too much or the procedure. Right now, I am just nervous about being happy with my results. I hope I will be happy and didn't go through the pain and the money for nothing. I have been eating my feelings lately and gained a few pounds back, must be nerves. I am working on healthy eating until surgery date. I am SO excited. I just need to get my house cleaned and organized and pre-op clothes all cleaned and ready. :)
How is everyone else feeling??

I almost threw the diet out the window the week before too. I figured it was so close and I had already lost 23 pounds so why not indulgr!

Oops hit post prematurely
I ate for 2 days then got back on it. Really glad I did. The mindset I went into surgery with is the mindset I came out with. We deserve beautiful bodies to go with our beautiful souls :-) we are putting so much energy, time and $ into this why give up now. Trust me IT'S WORTH IT!
Keep up the good work

That is so FUNNY because I DID THE EXACT SAME THING! I just gained probably 5-6lbs because I was like...why not! LOL But I am doing 6 days of NOTHING but smoothies prior to surgery, so I know that I will lose that weight really easily anyway. :) Can't wait to get to the FLAT side!

NEED ADVICE on LIPO with Tummy Tuck or NOT?
I am getting a tummy tuck on March 17th which I can afford and is paid for. I cannot afford the extra $2000 for liposuction on my back though that my surgeon recommended. They do lipo on flanks and stomach which is included.. I have pics posted of my back and I do have a lot of excess fat on my upper hip area. I can pay a little extra to do the EXTENDED tummy tuck but not sure about that either? The scars seem a little extensive.
I am desperate for advice!! I have pre surgical visit in a week and I am now thinking of rescheduling the entire thing in order to save up for the lipo on the back...
Does ANYONE have any experience with Tummy Tuck with and without back lipo?? It's a LOT of money and I do not want to be unhappy with the results. Thank yoU!!

My problem as well, I decided to wait on my back. If it's too bad I'll go back, but I don't want to put my surgery off.

So you are not going with the additional LIPO? I have my pre-surgical appt. in a week from today so I will go over all of that with him I guess and get his opinion?
