WORTH IT$8,500

I am a 29 year old mother of three ages 8, 7, and 11 months. I weight 170lbs. Like many of you ladies pregnancy has ruined my lovely body!! I have disliked my body since after the birth of my oldest son after I gave birth to him I was left with a lot of weight to lose and soon after his birth I was pregnant again

yes that's right I was one of the people that you hear about going in for their 6 week check up and find out they are in fact again pregnant so to say the least the 60lbs I gained with him remained with me and somehow I managed to gain another 10lbs so now you can really imagine what my belly looked like. After her delivery I managed to lose 60lbs and keep it off.

Seven years later I was pregnant again with what I call my birthday present. Last year I gave birth on my birthday to my last child and with that pregnancy I didn't gain any weight but that's how I was left with this terrible skin fold that isn't going anywhere despite all of the excersie I do hence my decision to have a tummy tuck.

Im tired of being self concisous in clothing and having a butt in the front and in the back. I have stalked realself for about a year now and enjoyed following many of you ladies on your tummy tuck journeys and now it is my turn. I struggled with wanting to write my review because I didn't want to open up about this but considering the fact that I really have no one else to talk to about it I have chosen to open up.I figured what better present can I give myself for my 30th birthday than to go into it with a new body so instead of being in pain on my birthday for two years in a row I'm going in 19 days before so by my birthday I will not be in as much pain and I can give my son an enjoyable 1st birthday and so today March 9th I am deciding to join many others on waking up from the flat side side!!!

I will add before and after photos later!! Wish me luck!!!!

Hi Shaizdaiz, How are you feeling today?
March 14, 2013
Today I feel really good. I feel better once I take this binder off but I know I need it with all of this swelling I'm having. I don't even realize it until the binder is back on though.

Well today is post op day 5 and I feel pretty good. So far dealing with the constipation and swelling has been the worst but I am taking it one day at a time and glad I had the courage to follow through!!
