32 Years Old; 5'2, 155 Lbs, Cellulite for Days - Greenbrae, CA

OK....well I scheduled my liposuction for Feb 26th 2015! Starting to get excited! I went to this same Dr about 10 years ago for a complete body makeover. I was short and fat (like 5'2 200lbs) from 5th grade and when I turned 21 I got a mini tt, chin implant/chin lipo, and lipo from waist down, a breast lift and silicone implants under the muscle. The recovery time was awful but I've since blocked most of it out....So...this feels all new to me again! Pre op consultation is on Monday. I have arranged for a good friend (like a mother to me) to pick me up from surgery and take care of me for at least a week. She took care of me during my last bout of surgery so she know's what she's in for. My first surgery really was a life changer. The tummy tuck was especially painful and I couldn't stand up straight for several days. I thought I would never stand straight again! My boobs were saggy and deflated from gaining and losing 50 lbs 3 times...my thighs have always been cellulite ridden and giant. I was also extremely self conscious of my double chin, so we put a silicone implant at the end of it and lipo'd it to contour my face. I am so happy I did all this when I did...It really helped me feel a little more secure in my body throughout my 20s when we are all so insecure anyway. My face shape really made a huge difference. Everything I did then, despite the terrible recovery, I am totally happy with. Since I turned 30, I have gotten a little pooch above my lower abdomen. This is because the tummy tuck really flattened me up and it's hard for my lower stomach to get fat (not a complaint btw) so it goes to the upper abs now. I have still struggled with weight since my first surgery and I've gained about 20 lbs in the last few years. I work out, am doing crossfit 3 days/week. Spin class once a week and other gym activity... I'm active but still plagued by a sugar addiction and bad genes. I have terrible cellulite on my thighs and butt. I've been feeling like I'm wearing a fat suit lately....I hate feeling so loose and heavy and just want to shape up with a bit of a touch up this year. I am going to be liposuctioning my upper abs, back rolls, hips, circumferential thighs and knees. I'm nervous this time because I'm older and not as resilient as 21 years old and I also now am living with a boyfriend, and I was single when i did my first surgery. I mention this because my boyfriend is freaked out by my eagerness to do plastic surgery and I'm also worried about leaking onto our bed and such when I come back from my friend's house. Hopefully I will be done with that when I come home. Since my boyfriend is so weirded out by all this, I haven't spoken to him much about it other than it is happening soon. SO...realself will be my confidant through this journey. Thanks for listening everyone and I 'll let you know how Monday goes soon.

Forgot to add that they recommended I get 8 sessions of a Venus freeze afterthought lipo... Haven't decided about that yet since it's an extra $1800 and few people seem to think its worth it on real self. Thoughts?

I decided what the hell....I don't want to tone up everything but the arms and then focus on how fat they are....so I added those in too. It's still $9000 total...I'm still deciding about the Venus freeze. I will probably see how the lipo comes out and then decide later. Today is one week and now I just want to; get it over with. The anticipation is making me crazy!
