Able to see and read everyone's experience. To know my dream is coming soon for me. I'm sooo excited! I never thought I would be doing this. Lost 70 pounds and kept it off for six years! I have to get a TT done so I can see my abs ???? dr Burt said TT, lipo and flanks will be done. As well as lipo in my back as well.

You are going to LOVE your results! It is shocking the cute little body that is hiding underneath all that flub ;). Have you set a date yet? I did respond to your exparel question on my review. Just in case you can't find it later…here is it copied and pasted on your wall ;)….I sooooo wanted the exparel!!! I almost passed on my ps because the hospital he worked at did not provide it. I am so glad I didn't !!!!!! He provided me with a three day pain pump, that slowly releases numbing stuff! IT WORKS GREAT!!!! So…if your ps does not provide the exparel, MAKE SURE YOU GET A PAIN PUMP!!!! It works wonders. And if you have read anything about my first weeks of recovery…It was painless for me. Days 15-21…Blech! Not pain….just exhausting. Just another phase of recovery. But it's all so very worth it!!!! So worth it! :)

Thank you... I am still getting to know this RS site! I didn't read your comment till now. Sorry for the delay and I go on here everyday! LOL! My doctor gives the exparel for 300.00 no pump. So, I am taking it! I haven't set the date ... cause I wanna make sure I have the fund ready and all for the day. So, it is looking like Sept 7th now for me. When I pay the deposit down and have the date I will definitely let you all know. :-) I have been loving this site, reading everyones experiences and feelings! I have been feeling those feelings for so many years! :-)

Yes that is why I am doing it now... I wish I had the mentally to do it back then. I never thought I would do this. Had the mind that it is to much money and why would I have to do that. NOW it has to get done to see the results that I have been working my ass off for! :-)

You will see such a difference hun, I still have my dressings on and still very swollen, but even with all that, just not having the fat rolls and skin is so different. I am still very bent over at the moment, which I think is a good sign as my skin is tight so when I straighten out I'm hoping for a flat stomach!! Lol!! Fingers crossed!! It is such a big decision doing this, and I must have lost about 50 pounds in my lifetime. After my first child I remember being 178lbs, but when I lost weight I was about 125lbs. I have kept my weight off for probably 9 years, and no matter what exercising and dieting I did. I still had my horrible flabby tummy!! Its nerve wrecking doing it, and people don't always understand, but as far as we know we have one life to enjoy to the full, and if your not happy about something, be positive and think I am going to change it for the better!! This is my perspective on life, time flies and I want to enjoy every minute.. Take care hun, and everyone's support on here is incredible.. It really makes such a huge difference.. [RS bleep]

thank you Helena for the words of support! I am glad we had meet on RS! I totally understand where you are coming from... from losing weight and have kids! I have been 6 years working out hard to get where I wanna be. and I am not happy with myself! That is why I am doing it..... and I am sooo excited too! Sat at my desk did my finances for monthly ... it might just be aug instead of Sept for TT. I will set me date on the end of June. You will all know when I do... RS will be the first place I will inform! :-) Thanks ladies!

Well, we will be enjoying our flat little tummies only between the hours of waking-noon. Then the swell monster gets us Tummy-Tuckers ;). I am just as "thick" if not thicker than my before. But it doesn't jiggle, lol!

Wow! I'm 43, 3 c-sections (17,14,10), 5'2" had a 10lb baby...and I just saw Dr Burt for consult TODAY! I have seen 2 other PS, but Dr Burt is so nice and seems to get exactly what I want. I told her when she came in to do the pics, "I am your typical before pic"! When I saw your pics for the first time tonight I thought, gosh I want to see how hers came out b/c thats exactly how I look. Good luck to you!
