Fresh Start. MY Tummy Tuck Journey - Louisiana

Ok here we go.... I am 35 years old I have 6 children (4 by birth 2 by blessing) 5 of them are girls. AAAHHH and the youngest is a lil man. I have an amazing and supportive husband. I have a full time job and then come home, as most of us do, to my full time family job. As long as I can remember I have been on the plumper side. lol. As an adult I've tried just about every craze diet and sometimes even got skinny (which for me is 125-135). However it never "stuck". I had always been the "yea im big but im cute" kinda girl. But on 10/18/12 I decided enough was enough. I don't want to hide behind funny anymore. I want to look good in clothes and I wanted true confidence in my appearance. I started eating less calories and doing just about any physical activity I could think of. I started off with literally a few mins walking and thought I was going to die. When I could walk those few mins and not want to pass out, I increased my time. As far as food I still ate everything I normally ate, just not as much. I read it on a blog and adopted the following motto as my own "I eat everything I want, Just not as much as I want" and in a years time I lost 65 lbs. SIXTY FIVE POUNDS. Yep pretty awesome if I do say so myself. I started off in the 220 range and I'm currently in the 150-160 range. From a size 22 to an 8. I'm about 5ft 1in. I like to say 5ft 2-3 on a tall day. lol.
Now... I still want to lose about 20 more pounds but have been at a stall for a year now. Honestly I haven't given it my all and I know that but the motivation is definitely making a come back. By no means do I want to be skinny. I, me, yes me, Iiiii like a little thickness. (and so does the hubby)
Of course I would LOVE to have a BBL and get big ole bubble bootay but if I can only chose one procedure it would be the tummy tuck. Due to being so overweight for so long and multiple pregnancies I have the dreaded "apron" which means even though I'm smaller, clothes still don't fit quite right.
I look forward to researching Drs, hearing all you lovely ladies opinions, good and bad, and hope that you all remain open to hear MY experiences in this journey. I believe too often we down each other for whatever reason and I hope and wish that as a gender we learn to love and empower each other. Much love ladies.

So excited to finally be moving forward in my journey. Got a savings started and a list of Doctors that I'm researching inside and out and upside down. I'm reading reviews, checking before and afters, making list of prices, getting together my questions for consults. The main things I'm looking for are scar level, realistic belly button and visible amount of lipo. I try to focus more on people who had my body shape and size before so that I keep my expectations realistic.

The Doctors I'm currently looking at are:
Dr Gill (The Woodlands). Current top runner
Dr Ortega (Miami)
Dr Basu (Houston)
Dr Salma (AdventuraFL)
Dr Newall (Houston)

Love to hear if you ladies have any input.

So I was wondering if it was possible to have a mommy makeover but without saline? Instead using fat from lipo to inject in the breast
