Motivation - When I had my children I had achieved a weight of 200 lbs. I'm 5'2" and the day I walked in for my procedure with Dr. Kerr, I weighed 127 lbs. I didn't maintain a good weight during my pregnancies and I had 3 C-sections to deliver them. I had saggy skin around my abdominal area and my breasts were deflated from the weight gain and loss. I am at a wonderful weight now and was before my mommy makeover. I am active, energetic and a beautiful person, like every other mother is. Unfortunately, no amount of exercise helped to rebuild my abdominal wall, pull in the saggy tummy skin or make my breasts full and beautiful.
Pros - So far, my breasts are immediately more full, beautiful and voluptuous. They fill out bras and tops wonderfully and I enjoy the confidence and satisfaction it brings me to have them back to their pre-mommy era. At two weeks post surgery, I am also immediately enjoying a belly button that is where it is supposed to be and a midsection that is firm, tight and healing beautifully. I have no more additional skin and no large bulge from tired, worn out and separated muscles. I am me again.
Cons - As with any reward, comes investment. There will be a thin scar where I had the tummy tuck done. I will also have small thin scars under the fold of my breasts. I was and still am sore and I haven't worn my favorite high heels in 2 weeks. I consider my down time as investment time. I'm making the investment now, temporarily, and the return on my investment will soon come to pass and be far more long term. Be sure to give yourself enough time to heal, eat and slow down.
Outcome - I will update this review in a few months and add pictures, but so far, my outcome is uber happiness. I could not be more satisfied with my decision, from what procedures to undertake to the specialist I chose to help me. When I read posts, trying to decide for myself if this was the right decision for me, I would read others' comments like, "You'll be so glad you did it!" I wondered if that were true. I can tell you two weeks post-op that they were spot on. There's no reason not to follow through on something that will bring you happiness and over all better health.
I'm ringing in the holidays with a wonderful new body, a youthful look on life and a sexy sweater!
