Tummy Tuck, Liposuction, Breast Loft & Breast Augmentation

After losing more than 100 pounds, I am ready to take the next steps to remove the excess tummy skin. I will also be having a breast lift with implants and hope to fix the asymmetry of my deflated breast. I am SUPER nervous but also so excited to see the results of all my hard work!

Surgery prep is in full swing!
I can hardly believe that my surgery date is in 6 weeks! And those 6 weeks are going to go FAST. I will be home for 2 weeks, in France for 2 weeks, then back home with only 2 weeks to go. And in that time, my kids are having birthdays, they are taking school trips, and it’s almost the end of the school year. It is BUSY!
I have been working hard to lose about 15 more pounds before the big day. So far, I’m down 6 of those pounds. I am on track to meet my goal. I am 5’4” and currently 148 pounds. My ultimate goal is 125-135, and by my surgery day, I would like to be 139. I estimate I will have around 5 pounds removed, but it could be more or less.
My husband ordered me a recliner. Yay! I rearranged my first floor living room to set it up. This is a space we use for entertaining, but it will be my recovery room. No stairs, nice and comfy, surrounded by my plants and sunshine, bathroom access, and a kitchen. Perfect!
Took some more “before” photos today. I cannot wait to have this skin out of my way during workouts! Tucking it all into my leggings has gotten tiresome. And just looking at how uneven and deflated the girls are… I can hardly believe that I am finally going to have the breasts I want!
Going to keep on preparing and working hard.

Mommy Makeover death makes the news today…
I just read that a celebrity named Jackie Oh passed away following a “Mommy Makeover” a couple of days ago. There is no confirmed news yet but seeing her three children and devastated boyfriend left behind…
How could this have happened? I understand most deaths occur due to blood clots, and I can only imagine that she and her surgeon did everything to reduce the risk as much as possible. It really brings home the reality that bad outcomes DO occur. I have four children and the idea of leaving them because of elective surgery is horrifying.
I am not planning to cancel or back out but I am most definitely concerned and seriously thinking through my decision. My kids don’t care if my tummy is flat or my boobs are perky…
How did you reconcile these fears before your surgery? I know the chances of a rare side effect like death is not likely to happen, but I still need to wrestle with this as I think if it can happen to a celebrity in a high-end clinic, it can certainly happen to me.
I wait to hear more about what happened to this young mama and I am praying God comforts as only He can in this terribly sad time.

I know of only one person in my whole life who underwent a mommy makeover and died. She had never experienced anesthetic before and had a rare side effect. I have been under anesthesia 6 times in my life and have not had a problem. I work in this industry and yes the rare case happens but I truly only know of one person. Of course I had fears but I believe in God and that he has a plan for me and that he hopefully wanted me to have a better quality of life. I prayed, my husband prayed and I went into surgery feeling a little anxious but woke up so happy with tears of joy that everything went smoothly, and thanking my surgeon! My procedure has definitely given me a better quality of life- my core feels so strong now and I don’t have any back pain (huge blessing!) that could have lead to worse injuries. I am grateful to be on the other side and wish you well on your journey into surgery and recovery! God bless you!

Thank you for your comment and the encouragement! I was a pastor before moving internationally and my faith plays a HUGE role in literally everything I do! I am satisfied with the risks, I think we all just have to really look them square in the face and ask ourselves if we are ok with it. It was the same when I learned to ride a motorcycle - the benefits outweighed the risks! So I did it.
I am no two weeks away. I would be higher on my confidence scale if I wasn't living in a foreign country. Doctors act differently and care is different. Not inferior at all - but SO unfamiliar that it is an honest barrier to overcome.
Thank you again for the encouragement! I so appreciate it!
