So I was scheduled for my surgery for Jan. 25 but i have to reschedule it because I wont have all the funds until the end of the month and now i had to reschedule my pre opt appt due to weather. Is this a sign i shouldnt go thru with this. I have had two csections 13 yrs apart! I completed my first half marathon last year, i try and eat as clean as possible and i have been doing crossfit for 6 months. No matter what that muscle wont come back.

Certainly not, things happen for a reason. Just reschedule when you can. Good luck.

I did my first half last year too and no matter how fit I get my stomach looks awful. My surgery is scheduled wednesday, I'm very nervous. Don't think of it as a sign, I think we could drive ourselves crazy thinking too much. Do it for you and don't look back!

No I don't think its a sign not to do it, I think it's a matter of timing. This isn't an easy surgery in any aspect, emotionally, physically and financially! You can't make this decision without being ready for it! If this is something you really want I say go for it! I wanted to back out so many times but I just knew I wanted this and had wanted it for over ten years. It's a real gift to ourselves.

I just read your story and its just crazy the ups and down you go through for this procedure. But you are looking really good, hope you are feeling good.

All paid up!

gradgirlFebruary 2, 2014

Well surgery is all paid up and I am scheduled for March 1! I am so excited and i cant wait to see results just like I am seeing from everyone else. My only question is for those who have had a TT, how did you feel coming out from recovery? Were you groggy, cranky, nauseaus?

I had mild nausea right after surgery and my face felt very itchy the nurse told me it was a side effect from the anesthesia .

Did the nausea last a long time?

It didn't it pretty much went away maybe after an hour max. But the next day I had terrible nausea and felt super dizzy but it was mainly because my hemoglobin drop to 8.7 after surgery .

I think I remember having that itchiness feeling three years ago when i had my daughter. It took a day or two to go away.
