53 Years Young and Happily Anticipating my TT with MR, BL w/o Implants

I am a month out today!!!! I am getting a tummy...
WORTH IT$15,600
I am a month out today!!!! I am getting a tummy tuck with muscle repair, breast lift without implants, lipo on sides of breast and love handles. I have been debating whether or not to write a review of my experience. Reading other experiences has helped me in my preparation. I decided to ditch my semi shyness and hopefully help someone else. I have watched so many videos, read numerous blogs, and received advice from friends who have had this procedure. I am so excited.
My surgeon, Dr. Bundrick, suggested I lose 20-30 pounds before the procedure. I will have better results. I tried to lose it the old fashion way but knew I would need help. I decided to go with HCG. It has been great. After less than 3 weeks, I have lost 13 pounds. I am not hungry. I plan and prepare my meals a couple of days out so I am not caught unprepared. I have not hidden myself from the world. Temptation has been all around me. I just remember my goal and that birthday cake has been easy to resist. I feel like with some modification, I can continue with this menu even after my plan and surgery have been completed.
I will post pictures later (once I get the nerve up).

Surgery date moved up!
Went for my 2 week pre-op appointment today. Well, I was not prepared for my nurse Bonnie's request to possibly move my date up by one week. My wheels starting turning over the advantages and disadvantages of the shift. I said YES and would work out the details.
I was mentally ready. I knew my rides would be easy to rearrange. My wonderful sister will be traveling to take care of me for 2 weeks. I asked her would she come earlier and being the wonderful sister that she is, she said, of course! Thank god I didn't buy her ticket yet. As soon as I got back to the office, I booked her flight!
Now I am beyond excited. I have so many things to do in such a short time. My boyfriend will not be in town for the first 4 days. I see that as a bonus; I don't want him to see me during the hopefully worst days.
I have lost 25 pounds since my first consultation- 5 before hcg and 20 with Hcg. I am quite sure I will lose a few more pounds in the next week. It was quite easy. I know having a big goal at the end helped my progress.
I am adding a few before pictures. Too shy to post the sans close pictures yet.
