I'm a 46 year old mother of 4 and I hate my stomach. I'm currently weighing 170 lbs, weighing 175 lbs at my heaviest. I don't like looking at myself naked and prefer my husband not see me since I've put on more weight. He says I look fine, but when I look in the mirror I feel so ashamed of my body. I had my consultation in July, 2015 and I have scheduled my TT for March. I can't wait. I just wanna be able to wear my shirt tucked in for a change and wear a pair of pants that don't choke my stomach all day. It'll be such a relief to get off work and not have to unbutton my pants as soon as I get in the car. I also hate the pouch that makes it seem as if I have 2 stomachs. I'm just ready for my TT day. I will post pics later, just gotta get up the nerve.

Husbands don't understand what we go through with the post-pregnancy body stuff.  Keep us posted on everything!  You can crop your head out of your pics if it makes you feel better about posting them- you will definitely want to take before pics and then progress/healing pics so you can see the change.

Thanks Jill! You are so right about husbands not understanding. I'm just glad that he's supporting me on this. I will post pics soon.

My post-op date is March 2, 2016 and my TT/Lipo date is March 11,2016. I'm very anxious and nervous. I just want to get to the flat side again. Can anyone give me any tips on items I should go ahead and get? Thanks in advance!

Hey there. I am also a mom of 4 and scheduled same day as you for same surgery, TT WITH muscle repair and no lipo unless needed. I am very nervous but excited as well. My doc isn't one for me needing a lot, just the garment I will be leaving surgery with. I don't have a review on here but will follow you so we can discuss our progress together, although I may decide to post pics and reviews after surgery. Good luck and I'll be praying for the both of us.

Hey, I'm also getting muscle repair and I had forgot to mention it in my previous posts. Good luck to you also.

Time for my TT is approaching fast. My appointment date has been changed to March 11, 2016. I'm so excited and nervous at the same time. I'm posting pics finally. Does anyone have any suggestions on things I should start purchasing and what I need to do to prepare?
