I am a mom of 3 well 4 if you count my husband lol...

WORTH IT$12,200

I am a mom of 3 well 4 if you count my husband lol. I have decided to have a tt with lipo on inner thighs and hips/flanks. I also have RA and fibromyalgia and my "double bubble" as my doctor put is putting alot of strain on my joints. That is partaially why I am doing this. I also hate that I have to spend a ton of money to buy clothes that still don't really fit because I have big hips and a smaller waist and nothing fits right I'm tired of feeling miserable in my own body.

I will admit I have been going back and fourth every other day because of the cost but I'm going to go for it because I know I won't regret it. So here I go Wooooooo Hooooooo!!!!!

Hello all I am 5 days out of surgery and today I finally fell kind of normal. The first two days were horrible!!! I through up twice from going to the bathroom & back omg it was painfull. Got my first shower yesteday that made me feel a little better. I think I have thrush on my tongue from my advair if I don’t drink or rinse my mouth out after I use it, it can cause thrush. Its very painful even to drink liquids but its getting better day by day. Well its nap time so ill write again :)

Good luck! It's a really big deal and a longish recovery, but when all is said and done, I think most women are happy they did it. Try not to feel guilty. You'll be healthier and happier with a slimmer middle.

DO IT! YOU WILL BE AMAZED AT THE RESULTS!!
I too felt guilty about the money but at some point we gotta take care of ourselves! I am sooo glad I did it, even with the minor complications (spot on tt incision not healing as fast as the other sections)... SO WORTH IT! I can't wait until I can exercise again!
Does anyone know do you have to wear the compression girdle or is it up to your dr? Well I have my pre testing this tuesday then the count down begins :)
You're gonna love the new you :)
Don't feel guilty about your decision. I felt guilty too but I quickly realized it was something I needed to do. It will improve the way you live your life for sure! I'm only 3 days post-op and I feel like it's one of the best decisions I've made in a long time! Now I'm ready to conquer the world!
You are going to look amazing because your body has curves already. Good luck!
