Scheduled for June 29. I'm 5'4 and 145 pounds. Before pregnancy (kids are 10 and 8) I was around 110 pounds. I am very athletic and work out religiously but somehow never seem to be able to get rid of my bulging tummy... or lose weight for that matter. I've given up on the weight and just looking for a more curvy and streamlined hourglass shape. I'm using Dr Adam Tattelbaum. So far just waiting on the D-day.

Hi everyone,
The day is drawing near and today I decided to take some before pics. Very hard taking pics with one hand. To prepare, I've been doing cardio and tummy exercises for an hour every day. I also It's depressing that I only lost 5 pounds. Like I said, I've given up on losing weight. I also walk for 2 miles daily.
Diet wise, I have been eating healthy / protein and lots of fiber.
I will focus on living healthy.
I have been taking a glass or two of wine just to relax after work. Yesterday I stopped all alcohol.
I like tea and coffee too...i stopped this and will now switch to healthy protein shakes.

Yes I understand I'm going thru the same thing with my stomach looking like I'm 5 months pregnant only I don't eat as healthy as I should be but I don't eat much either that's were my weigh get me because I'm not feeding myself enough but I'm always busy. I've tired so many weight loss programs its unreal so I decided to have the same surgery you are having, cause I also have an hernia as well. I have a 15 yr old, 5 yr old and a10 month old and my stomach never went back down and with each pregnancy afterwards my stomach stayed at a pregnancy look. I wish you the best and I'll keep following your story. Good luck!!! I'm going in on July 15th, nervous but scared of the after pain

Hi, I'm at work trying to concentrate and be positive. I still haven't heard from my clinic on a confirmation of the surgery time, but I expect that tomorrow. I have suddenly lost my appetite and wondering whether this will be worth it.
I haven't really bought anything because I am completely clueless. I have a super supportive husband who will be taking care of me. We arranged for child care for the kids too. Schools are out for summer vacation.
Please stay tuned.

Hi, I live in Falls Church and have surgery scheduled for the 29th as well! I'm sure you'll do great :).
June 28, 2016
Good luck! We will do great! What's on your shopping list for recovery? I haven't done any shopping because I don't know where to start! Other than the list of medication we were told to stay clear of, and smoking, what else are you NOT eating?

Best of luck to you on the 29th. Prayers are with you. I am sure you will be in good hands. Stay positive.
I have not even schedule a date yet. but feel anxious to just think about it but I know I want and need this done as well.
So please stay positive you are almost there.

I am really trying hard to make my decision between Dr.T and one other PS . My only issue is I am contemplating on getting a mini BBL with fat transfer along with TT and that is not his specialty. So I may in up with 2 procedures from 2 separate PS . Decisions ....Decisions what is a girl to do. Anywho.......Good luck as your day gets near.....
