37 Years Old Looking for the Overhaul. TT, LBL, BA, BBL, lipo. Houston, TX

I am 37, 5'6" and currently 187 pounds and a deflated sad 38C. Spanning the last 20 years, I have been as high as 250 (the day I gave birth) and as low as 147 (the day of my senior prom). I spent most of that time in between 180-200. I have gained and lost the same 50-60 pounds many, many times over. I've had the "apron" since I was 19 (after gaining and losing a freshman forty - yes, 4-0). The flat butt and apron run in the family, unfortunately for my sweet mama. Of course, she never had the opportunity to do anything about it, but I just can't go on this way. I used to "at least" have really great boobs. Firm and perky and fantastic cleavage. But after nursing my son for 31 months (!!!), they are sad versions of what they used to be. I have been dieting and exercising like crazy since November and have lost about 45 pounds. Hopefully I can lose another 10 in the next month. I have chosen to go with Dr. Patronella for the complete overhaul. It will be a lower body lift with liposuction to the axilla, lateral chest, back, braline, flanks, hips, supragluts, fat grafting to the buttocks and lateral gluts and breast augmentation (without lift) with Inspira moderate profile 350cc on the right and Inspira full profile 400 on the left. I have a son that will be three in August. My mother is my nanny and lives about 2 miles away. My husband is very supportive, although, in practice, he is quite terrible with anything medical or being a "nurse." Other members of my family live in town and will be helping with my son. I am SO excited and so nervous, as well. Of course, I'm sure as many here, the most terrible thought in the back of my head is what is something happens to me and I can not be here for my son all because I was being vain! I am trying to remember that many, many people have successful surgeries every day and I trust Dr. Patronella and his team whole-heartedly.

Looking forward to my pre-op appointment tomorrow. My husband is coming with me and this will be the first time he is meeting Dr. P. Getting excited and nervous! A few more pictures. Will use those undies as a before and after reference. Will be so nice not to have them get "lost" under the flap whenever I move around! :/ Ugh.

Well, I'm all set! Have my vitamins, prescriptions, bra, supplies; hemoglobin levels and BP checked out perfectly. The next time I set foot there, will be the morning of surgery! I added lipo to the knees to the scope of the surgery. Might as well go for it all at once.
My husband met the doctor and liked his demeanor. My husband saw that I was getting nervous and quiet. In an effort to lighten the mood (he has a sarcastic sense of humor), after he heard all of the procedures he commented that "seems like this is taking a Volkswagen and turning it into a Ferrari!" It worked -- I was cracking up laughing. I told him too bad I'll still have the VW engine ;) haha.

So excited and nervous. We are headed on vacation in the interim and I have another quick business trip, so actually I think the time will go really quickly! I know if I was sitting at home, it would CREEP by, so I'm thankful to be staying busy.
