I will be having a Mommy Makeover on December 1st, 2016. I went to multiple surgeons and decided on Dr Steely. He was great from the first time I met him. No other doctor that I met even compared to him. I just had my last pre op appt last week. So excited to get this all done. We decided on a lower body lift (belt lipectomy), lipo of flanks, stomach, lower back and saddlebag area, as well as breast lift and silicone implants. Current weight around 185. Highest weight was around 272 back in 2010. I lost the weight with diet and exercise over a few years and have maintained over the last year and a half. I'm at the point that I need my body to look as good as I feel. I'm tired of grabbing my stomach everyday in the shower and wishing it wasn't there. It's time for me now....

Good luck! Having this all done at once sounds tuff! What does a LBL include? Is that like having a tummy tuck butt lift and thigh lift together? What are your thoughts on the chances of capsular contracture with th BA/BL? What did your doc say about it? Did he say if there is a better way to do BA to lessen chances? Also what type of BL is he doing and did he discuss nipple sensation? I know these are a lot if questions. Did you decide on size and type for BA? Your so close!

I've been trying to not be nervous but I think it's getting the best of me. I had a very emotional day and it seemed nothing could go right. I am trying to finish everything I need to wrap up before going out of work and I also still have to deal with being a single mom of 3 kids. I think reality is hitting that I am going to need help (which I hate asking for). The anticipation is killing me. I just want the surgery to happen.

Thank you!! Don't get discouraged, I was very upset my first week. I looked like a project of dr. Frankenstein ... but within a few weeks I quickly started to take on a normal shape. I hope you do too, even better!!
