WORTH IT
All I can really say is wow. Sometimes all it takes is looking at some old pictures, or in this case a side by side to really appreciate the before & after. I can't believe that was me a year ago. I can't believe how long I walked around looking like that... gross. Anyhoo, it's been almost 10 months since my TT, and almost 4 since my revision. I would do it all over again in a second - the results are phenomenal - the pictures speak for themselves. I won't be posting on this review anymore as there just isn't anything else to post. I appreciate everyone's kind words and support throughout my journey. And most of all - I appreciate what the doc has done for me. I feel new, improved and pretty stinkin' awesome. Keep an eye out, I'll be posting more reviews next year - planning on getting boobs & an arm lift :). Much love to all.

Had my tummy tuck done by Dr. Klainer in October. I cannot even begin to convey how happy I am with my results. A little back story for you - I was extremely heavy for most of my life. About 6 years ago I decided to make some healthy lifestyle changes and lost 200 pounds. Long story short, despite my efforts through exercise, weight lifting, countless sit-ups and abdomen exercises I was stuck with a horrific amount of excess skin. Well... the skin is GONE, my stomach is FLAT and for the first time in over 20 years I can see my belly button. This might not mean much to you, but it means the world to me. So in case I haven't said it already, I am absolutely thrilled with my results. Thrilled with my flat stomach, thrilled with my belly button, thrilled with the doc and thrilled with my new found self-confidence (I had NO self confidence prior to my tummy tuck). Dr. Klainer is without a doubt the best doctor I have ever worked with. He has answered every question I have had and every email I have sent. He has continually went above and beyond by calling me after hours, checking in to see how I am doing and squeezing me in when I didn't have an appointment. I have nothing but good things to say about Dr. Klainer, he has made this journey way easier than I ever imagined. If you are looking to get any type of plastic surgery done, I highly recommend paying Dr. Klainer a visit - you won't regret it. Thanks doc, you rock!

Look who is all legit... what?!!!

Doesn't really relate to the TT, but for all of the ladies who have followed my journey and my new gym venture - well I am officially legit. Gym is open. Classes are rolling. I am sponsored. I have shirts. I am legit as it gets! For real. https://partner.projectlevelup.com/referral/lead/landing/?mode=1&g=KnockoutFightingandFitness&Adv=UNKNOWN
