I'm a mom of 6 5'6 152lbs pretty healthy. Due to the children, no matter how much exercise I do I still have fat around my abdomen. I went in for a consultation last month and they quoted me 10000 for abdomen and back bra area. That was way to much for me. I shopped around and found a place that I like better for a more reasonable price. I'm getting my upper and lower abdomen and my waist and flanks. My surgery is in a week and I'm just as nervous as I am excited.

I'm so nervous. However, every time I look in the mirror without clothes I realize it will all be worth it. I'm uploading a couple more before pics to keep reminding myself why I'm doing this. I decided to stay in a hotel for the first two days after my surgery. I feel like with all of my kids at home it will be more peaceful place to heal. I'm going shopping tomorrow for all of the essentials. Ladies please let me know if there's anything that the doctors may not tell you that was a must-have for you.

Arnica, bromelian, (can get these a whole foods) pineapple juice
At least one extra cg
Compression socks (you may not need them but I had a lot of swelling in lower legs)
Lipo foam can be helpful if your cg leaves dents
Lots of water bottles
Tums ( I ended up with heartburn from the cg and occasionally get it still)
Locate a massage therapist that does lymphatic massage if your doc office doesn't offer them. Lymphatic massage is great for swelling.
I had the worse swelling with this procedure. This procedure can really teach you patience. I still have days that I look in the mirror and get depressed because I don't see what I expected. I am 3 months p/o and still have swelling. Patience is key.
Good luck girl!

See if you can find a good pair of tummy tuck compression garments. It will remove pressure and allow you to heal and give the flattest result possible, a firm pillow for coughing etc..., still softeners, keep the tape they place on you as long as possible!!!, if and when you have to replace the tape either use paper tape or scaraway silicone patches. If you can, talk to your doctor about medical honey tape. It is better than using creams to keep from scaring. They also have a cream called "medi-honey". It's hard to find but you will be much happier with your end result. I hope this helps and good luck. I pray all goes well and can't wait to see your updated photos;)
