I have just discovered this site a week ago and...
I have just discovered this site a week ago and after stalking everything, I am feeling so tremendously overwhelmed!!! If only I knew this site existed months ago, I would not feel as if I am not at all prepared for my surgery next week!!! The reason I am even writing this blog (or whatever this is :-) is because I have yet to come across anyone with my body shape, height, weight, etc. Its so hard to imagine what my possible outcomes are with so many other women that are not in my category! I hope that this will help someone like me imagine what their future look may possibly be. So here goes....My history:
I am 35 years old with 3 beautiful little girls (13, 11 and 7). I have never really been a thin girl, but once upon a time I carried a physically fit physic (just thick boned....Think...softball player). I have always been active, even through pregnancies and post pregnancy. I am currently 165 lbs and 5' 8". I am terrified that I have not lost enough weight prior to this surgery (from what I have read so far on all these other reviews). With my last pregnancy (7 yrs ago), I went from 200 (pregnancy weight) to a comfortable 150 where I maintained (150-160) for 5.5 yrs. I was comfortable in that weight range and looked good in clothes. I went down as far as 138 lbs after my 2nd child and looking back at pictures-I now realize that I actually did look sickly (as everyone would always tell me and I just couldn't see it). I was very comfortable with my weight at 150-155. We moved about 2.5 years ago to a new state, away from family, away from my gym that was less than a mile from my work (I used to work out during my lunch hour every day and was able to maintain my weight with that). At our current home, I am having to now fit in "Work out" time after work with 3 kids busy schedules. Needless to say, it hasn't work. Thus the weight gain (of course the office donuts and constant eating out for lunch certainly didn't help either!!!). I was a whooping 188.9 lbs the first week of January 2015 (the heaviest I ever allowed myself to get while not being pregnant!!). I knew something had to give...I joined weight watchers on Jan 5 and began eating much healthier and began running again (which I LOVE) and working out. The weight started dropping (not with much veracity, but consistently.... I would drop 1-2 lbs a week..Which was good for me in maintaining and encouraging to continue to loose). Nonetheless, we are to today at 165 lbs. I of course have tons of loose skin around my abdomen and my boobs are flat and lifeless (one thing I can say about the weight gain ... was that I had some boobs!!! I would tease my hubby and asked how he let me get that big and he would say that the boobs were clouding his vision! :-) I have stepped my work out up ridiculously this week due to these reviews cause I am now so worried that my extra 10 lbs will ruin the outcome of my tummy tuck. I am hoping to loose at least 5 lbs before May 7. I am also very worried that I did not go big enough on the CCs for my implants. I am currently a B cup (according to VS bras) but no where near a full B (more like a limp deflated skin B). I am going with the textured Mentor Gummy Bear implant at 400 CCs (which I believe my PS said was the highest CCs they go in that brand-I would have to change brands and/or style). I do not want [RS bleep] big boobs, but I certainly want to look like I had something done (its a lot of money!!). I want to be a Full DD. Well Hopefully this review will help someone else. I have not bought a damn thing, I have already been to my pre op appt (and they will provide the binder-they said I didnt need to purchase anything else. I have a recliner, lots of pillows, kids and hubby at my beckon call, a week off from work, etc. Besides, I don't believe I would have a clue as to what brands or where to look for anything!) and have not even filled my prescriptions yet. I am still in shock I guess that its next week and haven't found the motivation to act like its next week. In my head, I think I believe I am still weeks out!!! I have attached some before pics (that I honestly cannot believe I am doing) But hey, I have relied so much on you brave women for your pics and love the fact that this is a place where you won't be snickered at...We are all here for a common purpose...to get to the flat side (and of course big boob side for some of us!) ;-)

Getting Soooo Close!
Well I finally filled my prescriptions and I actually purchased an Anti Gravity Chair due to so many recommendations (and because we were already shopping for outdoor furniture-so might as well buy this brand!) What I need help on ladies is what brands and/or styles do you recommend for spanks, CGs, sports bra and scar treatment?!?!?! My PS will provide a binder, but I hear it isn't comfortable at all. I want something I can fall back on.
I am stalking this site more than ever now that its so close! Good luck to all the ladies getting their surgeries this week and those recovering!!! I'm getting excited! :)

Nerves kicking in!!
Getting worried now that I will be completely disappointed with my results! I managed to only lose 4 more lbs and my surgery is tomorrow. I am ok with that, the problem is that I lost more weight in my boobs (if that was even possible!) and now I am certain I am an A cup instead of a B cup like I was in my consultation. I weighed 168.8 during my consultation and now weigh 161.6. I am having the gummy bear implants that r already prefilled and worried as hell that I am not going to even make a full C cup... Ughhhhh!!! All I know, is they better figure out how to transfer my lipo fat to my breasts somehow for $15,000!!! I was very adamant that I wanted full Ds to DD breasts during my consultation and pre op appts! Lol
