I'm Scheduled in for a full abdominoplasty, mastopexy with implant change due to capsular contracture, and lipo in 2 weeks time and I must have been through every single combination of emotions that are humanly possible in the past few weeks. I've been totally convinced I'm not going to wake up, then convinced I was going to get DVT etc afterwards, guilt, stupidity....the list goes on!!! Anyway I've finally settled down and seen as this website has been like a bible to me over the past year I thought it was only right to give something back by posting my own journey. Two pic's to start are pre pregnancy and me now "sigh". I've battled for 5 years to get my body back, going to diet extremes lipotrim etc and I have become obsessed with how horrible I feel so feel this is the only thing I can do to move on with my life and stop stressing about what I wish were irrelevant things.

Hey. I had a TT and BA with James Murphy back in Jan. Just relax, the team are amazing. James will totally put you at ease as will the anaethasist & nurses. Try to be excited rather than nervous the results are so so worth it I am over the moon with mine and would do it all again for the same results; this is saying something as I cry over feeling sick!! Good luck although you won't need it. Let me know if you have an questions at all. I will try and do a full review this week x

Hi, hope all is well with you. I had my check up post TT with JM a few days ago and results were thumbs up, all was as expected. Ditto to the positive comment from StephanieLouise, looking at your pictures I think you will get great results. I will be thinking of you. Best wishes.

I had a full abdominoplasty a year ago in May. I had waited for such a long time for it. James Murphy is an amazing surgeon, I am sure you will get the results you want. And, whilst you think the way you look and stressing over it, may be irrelevant, it really isn't. The way you look and feel can dictate a lot of what happens in your every day life, if you believe that you feel rubbish, you can't function properly - and as shallow as that may seem, I, and a lot of other people, get that. Good luck with the surgery.

Hi Gillian, I'm sorry that it seems I haven't acknowledged your lovely post. I did reply to you but it seems now I have the time to read through everything I've previously posted it doesn't seem to have registered. You are 100% correct in what you say and thank you so much for taking the time to add some wise words to my journey X
