Hello there. I can't wait to schedule my tummy tuck consult!! I've got 14 more lbs to go before I will schedule it. I've lost at least 70 lbs without surgery over the last 2 years with the majority of the loss in the last year. I got up to 320 with my last pregnancy and I'm at 214.1 lbs as of this morning!! I've got a lot of excess skin and fat around my belly, especially my lower abdomen. I can't wait to get it removed so I can wear the clothes I deserve to wear after all my hard work. Plus I would like to try running/jogging but it's uncomfortable right now with the excess flab bouncing around!! I've lost inches all over including my belly but it's not getting much smaller :( I'm so looking forward to being able to see the Dr and discuss the procedure. I may also look into a breast lift but not sure I can afford both procedures right now. I'll update as I go and I plan on posting pics in the future!!

I totally understand! It's a dream of mine too, within the next two years. I'm still on the weight loss journey. Keep posting! The stories in this awesome community are really inspiring me :)

No sucking anything in like I normally do LOL. If I do, I am quite a bit flatter. The more weight I lose, the worse it looks! Have never been self conscious before, even when I was heavier, but now I hate looking at my stomach! I have some flab on my upper arms and inner thighs but that doesn't bother me NEARLY like my belly does! Can't wait til it is gone!!

I can't wait til my consult on June 7th!! I'm sure the PS is going to suggest I lose some more weight but I want a plan in place and hopefully a time frame where I can hopefully schedule the actual procedure. I'm hoping I like the PS because he's only about 20 min from my house. If we don't "click" then I will definitely schedule another consult at a different office. I'm currently 207.2 today so I'm getting closer to my goal weight which is very exciting!! I'll update after my appt!
