I have been wanting have this "FAT" on my tummy...

WORTH IT$6,875
I have been wanting have this "FAT" on my tummy gone for a few years now. I was always worried about the cost and the "downtime" until recently….I realize the more weight I loose, i could not get rid of my "baby pouch." I went to see a PS a few weeks ago and was shocked when I saw how much excess skin I had hanging on my lower abdomen. I was more determined when I left his office to have this procedure done more than ever! I can home and talk to my husband about it and he said if this is something that I really want to do, then go ahead and schedule the surgery. So I did some research on the procedure and I can honestly say…I am super nervous, but soooo excited! I have become addicted the the RS website lately and I am glad that it is here because I get to see what others have gone through after the surgery and what their transformations look like and I cannot wait for my transformation. I have to gain the confidence to post some before pictures of my body. I plan to do that this week.

He did not. I lost about 25lbs the last few months and I want to loose about 10 more pds but he said I was a good candidate for the TT instead of Lipo. (I was going in for lipo). He said my muscles were fine, they were just separated so he would fix it with the TT.

I am 49 166 lbs. and my doctor told me the same thing about the muscles. But that I had to be in my 30 BMI. So the money is there and mentally ready to go and I can't lose a lb. I am going to see an endocrinologist to see what they say. Good look. Thanks for the feed back.

Hi TT Lady. I have my surgery scheduled a day before yours so looks like we'll be going through the healing process around the same time. I too feel like I've become addicted to this site. It has inspired me to schedule my surgery & also helped me to find a local doc to perform my procedure. There is so much encouragement which seems too help a lot when I start to get nervous. Anyway, keep me posted & hit me up with a message anytime you want to talk.

I am also addicted to RS. My hubby saw me going into it last night and said don't get too addicted... to late! LOL! ladies.... I am excited for all of us! And to read how long I have been having the feeling that we all have with our own body..... it is crazy! I have reached my goal and still not happy with myself! I have 1000.00 left in raising the funds and I will schedule my date. The goal is Aug but if I can raise it sooner than I will have it sooner! For now I am enjoying you all and feeling the excitement! Thank you all! :-)

So today, I went in and paid for the surgery in full. I am so excited. I have 22 days before the big day. i have even added a ticker widget to count down the days for me. I took some pictures this morning, so I am going to try and upload them. I am nervous and excited at the same time. I enjoy reading everyone's post since I cannot talk to my friend's about the TT. My husband is so laid back, he just nods his head when I talk about it and say "it's whatever you want to do" and he doesn't say much about it unless I bring it up. Sigh...blah, blah, blah!
