Hello Realself! I am not new to the site, but my plans have changed so much that I decided to start with a clean slate and start a new review. I have been on 4 consultations for a tummy tuck w/flank lipo and have my final one August 16. Out of the four I have completed, this is the order as far as order of satisfaction and cost:
1) Duke Aesthetic Center- $6,157
2) The Refine Institute- $9,860
3) Piedmont Plastic Surgery - $5,500
4) Summit Hand and Plastic Surgery- $5,000
Honestly, I am praying that my consultation with Wake Forest Residents Clinic goes well so that I can afford my breast lift as well - fingers crossed X
I am 36 year old new runner who has only two 5k's under her belt. I am hoping to complete a 10k in September. I still have about 20 lbs left to lose before I feel good about spending so much for the surgery. I am posting pictures at my heaviest and will post some of my size the day I head in for my consult.
I hope to find someone here who is having surgery that same date as me (once I pick one) so that I don't have to do this alone!

My laptop just threw up a lil' bit :-(
I have been working out extremely hard these last few weeks to ensure my BMI is low enough to be approved for surgery at the residents clinic. I have lost about 3 more lbs and was feeling good. My clothes are looser and my face is slimming. I didn't want to do this update and not load a picture so I thought "why not take the sitting picture everyone takes." What did I do that for?? Three lbs ain't got nothing on this hot mess....UGH.

26 days to my final consult
I have been in full-on work out mode and have lost 10 pounds. I need to lose at least 10 more before my consultation. Gonna work my tail off in the gym and eating 1300 calories per day. I'm thinking of juicing the last 5 days before. Hopefully that will work.
So far I bought a heating pad, a pee-ez female urinal and a walker from the Salvation Army for $7...score!
I still need zip front robes and to find a rental recliner. I hope to set the first available date, shooting for the first of September.
I have added some pictures and even though I have made progress, I still have so much belly fat! It's like the more I work out, the slimmer my arms and legs get..WTH! I need to zap my belly QUICK!
