18 days to go!! + Liposuction of back and flanks to Tummy Tuck

$10,500
I have added Lipo of the back and flanks to my scheduled Tummy Tuck since I will already be under. I am so excited, nervous, can't seem to sleep at night because I am becoming obsessed with videos and research and overall anxiousness is kicking my but. I have a list of things to ask my surgeon at Pre-op. I think I should stop weight lifting a week prior to my Tummy Tuck so that my body will recover easier and not have to work as hard recovering muscles from my workout. Posting a question for Dr.'s next.

Tummy Tuck in 31 days!!

I find myself waking up in the middle of the night anxious and unable to go back to sleep in anticipation of my surgery next month. I'm a little nervous, but my excitement wins. I am nervous I haven't lost enough weight. I weigh 173 and am 5'7. I lift weights, so do have some muscle on me. I'm going over all the lists, making sure I have everything I need. What do I really need?

Great job on your weight loss! You're doing well and I sure hope you keep us posted. I hope you don't mind me asking, but what are your stats. It looks like we have similar builds but I have a little less boobage
5'7~173.
I workout with some decent muscle on me. Hope I can lose 8 more in 30 days!
You are doing SOOO good. Keep it up!!! Any weight you can lose is an added bonus to the procedure. I was told to lose 10 pounds by one of the PS I consulted with. I told him it's been two years & I couldn't lose these last 10 pounds. It's why I knew the TT, lipo was my only way. My PS said he took 3 liters of fat out of me. I am 20 days post op and continue to lose weight. So worth it!! Hang in there and keep up the good work!!!
