I'm 30 yrs old 5'3 130 lbs, lots of stretch marks...

I'm 30 yrs old 5'3 130 lbs, lots of stretch marks goes above my belly, lose skin, lost 70lbs. Getting a full tt w lipo of flanks and mr. My surgery is on May 27 weds at 10a and my pre op is on the 15th Fri. Been working out cardio everyday eating healthy then I'd lose a couple lbs then on weekends for my cheat days we'd go out and eat and if I ate carbs I'd gain back everything I lost lol so frustrating, been doing it for months and I don't really care anymore, I'll still work out but if I gain a lb or two I won't let it get to me. Trying to reach a goal of 120 lbs but I probably won't get there unless I literally just starve myself. Anyway just sick and tired waking up everyday looking at my sad ugly looking tummy, tired of wearing undies and pants that I either have to tuck in or goes over. I just want to be able to look down w a flat tummy, no stretch marks or hanging skin and be able to see my vaginal lol which I haven't seen while standing up and so as my belly button I haven't seen for 13yrs. I feel so ugly and insecure taking off my shirt in front of my husband. I don't feel sexy at all, I feel like he'll get turn off by him feeling my rough and lose hanging tummy even though he says it's fine. I just want to feel normal. I feel bad spending so much money just coz I Want to make my tummy look better when my husband says we could use it on other important things, it's one reason why I held back numerous times but years after years I just can't take it anymore. I am so scared of the surgery and just want to make it out alive wake up safe and come home to my kids. Second concern is I'm praying all the money spent and risking my life, being helpless and having my husband take off work to care for me and our 2 kids that my results would be all worth it and last is pain and recovery. I've seen many results more good and some unlucky with bad outcomes which is really scary. Hoping I get a cute bb and low scar. I had a BA with another Dr but I went around as I wasn't happy with him, my other Dr. Made it seem like it's my fault, raised his voice during 3 visits and left me crying. Made me regret getting a ba. Anyways I've seen 3 other Drs. I've chosen Dr Stiles because he seems really kind and friendly, very warm. His staffs are all smiles and friendly as well especially Destiny she is so kind and has so much patience. I've called her numerous times and texts her even after hours always happy to respond. Very Beautiful office. I am hoping that Dr stiles stays kind and friendly through and even after my surgery as I'm planning on getting other surgeries in the future as long as everything goes smooth. It's so hard to find the Right Dr who you will not only give so much of your savings but your life and your results so I will put all my trust and faith in God and Dr Stiles. I have only told my husband, children, parents and siblings as I didn't really want to tell anyone. People tend to not understand and just judge you anyway. I will post updated pics closer to my surgery and and treatment day and or after.

Day of surgery

Came in I wasn't scared or nervous don't know why but I guess that's good. Nurse, anesthesiologist and Dr. Stiles was really all friendly and kind threw in some jokes maybe that's why I wasn't too nervous I was comfortable with them. They put me in a gown, socks, and covered me in a warm blanket, put in the IV then the anesthesiologist put some thing on the IV , they wheeled me in the OR saod a few more jokes and I was out. I don't even remember how I got home and or how I made it upstairs, so basically woke up with no pain:) they 1st and few days I slept alot but still woke up every 3 hours to walk around and use the restroom. Every time I took meds my family and I would watch a movie but then I would keep dozing off lol. Day 5 I ran out of meds for muscle spasms and then I was feeling a lot more discomfort, tightness, some burning and my muscles tightening, it was a Lil painful more uncomfortable but it was tolerable. My back was sooooo painful from hunchING over and when I try to stand a little straight feels like my tummy will pop. Honestly the pain isn't as bad as u thought. I guess the younger the fitter you are, you should be fine. I did workout almost everyday for 40 mins so that helped. Today marks 6 days went to my ps everything looked great, took out and stitch or staple on my back from lipo and one one drain and removed 1 of the drains, it stung a bit. I asked for meds for muscle spasms and I just took one right now hopefully I feel a little better and for pain I'm just taking Tylenol. I will update next week when I can take a shower and bcoz I still haven't seen my tummy. I will also take pics then.
