Going back under!
WORTH IT
Once again, I’m back on the RS community, I love being able to go back and see my journey in one place so I’m documenting for myself again! After my previous TT I had my BA and lift, it went amazing and they are still amazing. However, I ended up having two more kids, the last one being a complete but very excited surprise. So now mom of four, and 2 more c sections, my body needs a revision. This time I’m basically doing skin removal, no muscle tightening, they surprisingly are doing great even after two pregnancies. I am doing lower skin removal to correct and indent from the first TT and and a vertical incision as well, the scar outweighs the wrinkly saggy skin. Once again Dr. Mark Clayman will be preforming the surgery, he was just as amazing for my second consult as my first and I know I’m in great hands!

3.5 weeks post op
So I am about 3.5 weeks post op before surgery I had been so hesitant to buy clothes knowing my apron was rather large. I had a 75lb weight loss and two kids. Since the weather is getting warmer I needed new clothes especially shorts so off to the mall I went only to try on shorts and realize I went from a size 12 pre surgery to a six 6! Also, I'm still pretty swollen like a good bit so I'm hoping once I'm released to exercising and more swelling goes down I can eventually squeeze into a size 4! :)

Yay! Good for you!! I'm glad you're doing so well. I've been buying little bits of clothes here and there but not much. It's mostly just been tops. I'm holding off on buying any jeans or shorts. I'm trying to wait and see if I shrink anymore. I only lost 10 lbs and I've been at the same weight since. 20 more lbs to go. :-) Keep up the good work.

Thank you! I haven't weighed myself really but I was so shocked when I kept having to try on the smaller size :) my BA and lift is tomorrow no one really knows. My husband is taking me and my best friend is coming to stay with my kids. Only a few of my family members know. I didn't want to hear any negativity so I only told family I knew would be supportive lol! I feel so much more un prepared for this. dr. c keeps telling me it's an easy and quick recovery and surgery so I pray it is! :)

So this morning I kept feeling these rolls on my side, finally I decided to go really look at my tummy and I really am in love. Just emotional this morning. I have a definition line even with all the swelling.

I feel rolls too but when I look at everything, it still looks great. It still can be discouraging. Hang in there hun. It's only going to get better.

I know, I will say I truly trust Dr. Clayman and while other drs. May would have pulled me a little tighter for more instant results I think he knows in a few months when the swelling goes down I'm gonna have exactly what I want. Or at least super close and the best he can do. My rolls are also more upper back which isn't too affected by the TT and he still lipo'ed them for me without me asking in consult he just saw it and told me he would. He's been very upfront about everything and I love that. Also, i find it so crazy how little pain I am in. Other than being tighter I have pretty much had zero pain even my drain site never bothers me. It's crazy and yet I still love my results so far
