I'm excited & nervous. And I've spent the last 4 years considering a t-tuck. I lost 80 lbs 5 years ago & I've already had liposuction. I'm hoping to remove stretch marks & tighten loose skin. I believe a t-tuck will be the final phase in a long personal journey & I'm looking forward to a new lease on life!

So, today I had my medical history taken and I paid for my procedure. I am really nervous, but not necessarily excited. I am dreading the anesthesia and the recovery. And I also am afraid that I will make the wrong decision about having this done. Maybe I am just skeptical because I have cold feet about all of this? I am going to keep my fingers crossed and hope for the best--the two week count down has begun.

Today I had my procedure and it is not nearly as bad as I thought it would be. I did have quite a bit of anxiety about the surgery itself. And I started crying as soon as I walked into the OR... I believe that I was pretty overwhelmed by the whole experience... it was incredibly surreal.
I have no idea how long I spent in the recovery room. I believe that the anesthetist put me under almost immediately because I was crying and having some anxiety. The last thing I remember was asking the nurse if everything was going to be okay. and the next thing I remember was being wheeled out to my car. There is a complete lapse in my memory... kind of like missing time.
I have been able to move around today... with the aid of a walker. It actually feels pretty nice to be up and moving around. I have been alternating between the bed, the couch, and the recliner. I have not been able to fall asleep despite the fact that I am physically and psychologically exhausted.
Tomorrow I will get to see what it looks like and I will be sure to write an update...
