I'll keep this as brief as possible. I'm a 30 years old mom of three and I'm in desperate need of a tummy tuck. My body has been through so much stress From pregnancies, weight gain and weight loss, it's not even funny.
Im finally in a position where I can afford the surgery (paying out of pocket) so needles to say a tt is in the near future ;) I went for my consultation with Dr Nachman Rosenfeld 2 months ago and my surgery is scheduled for May, 02, 2014. Yaaaaay! I'm so excited, I've been wanting this done for YEARS. Ok, so I said I'll keep this brief so I'll keep my word. Will update soon. :)

Congrats on your future TT. If you don't mind me asking, what are your measurements and how much do you weigh. Did your Dr. recommend that you lose any weight first, also will you be getting lipo?

Hi HotNurse, thanks for commenting. I don't know my measurements but I weigh 176 pounds, im 5'1. No my doctor didn't recommend I lose more weight, I already lost over 70 pounds. Yes I'll b getting lipo of the flanks which he offers for free.

Welp, 12 days to go. This site has been a great help. I dont have much to update excep the fact that as im typing this im getting the shakes, anxiety is starting to set in. That and more before pics, cant wait to cross over to the flat side. I should mention that I went and got my blood tests done and everything was perfect so it's definitely ago, not that I was worried, still it's good to know I'm in great health. Someone from the doctor office called and gave me a list of do's and dont's. Do shower with anti bacteria body wash, do scrub under your nails, don't smoke or take vitamin E pills and the list goes on and on. She also told me not to buy anything. ...um wait... what? I asked. No you don't need to buy anything before hand, all you'll need is your meds, we don't want you to touch the incision at all, she said. Well, great, music to my ears. Needless to say, I went out and bought a few things I feel I will need anyway, ie anti bacterial wipes, Maderma scar therapy, baby wipes etc. Long story short, whoohoo tummy tuck in 12 days. Will keep u all posted.

That's great that you're in good health. It would help if you stock up on protein powder or shakes.

Good luck on your upcoming procedure. Try not to be to anxious as everything will work out as planned. Have you got all of your supplies?
April 26, 2014
Not quite. ... Thanks for the encouragement. Do you have any tips that I should take into consideration?

Get a power lift recliner, it is a must!!! Arnica gel works good for the bruising. The pain pills are constipating so you can buy some dulcolax to help you make #2, buy some tank tops (MAKE SURE THEY ARE NON RIBBED- the lines make you itchy) and wear them inside out under your post op garment. clothing is optional, all I wore was tee shirts and panties while I was in the house. Get a back scratcher. Female urinal EZ-PEE found on amazon for like 7$. Thats all that I can remember now. If I think of more I'll be back to post.

Thanks for the tips. I appreciate it.
