I want to start by acknowledging everyone's courage to post before pictures. LOL. All I know is I felt a lot of shame looking at how disfigured my body became after losing 70 pounds. For gaining the weight to begin with. However, I am incredibly proud of the work I have done to lose the weight and keep it off. I look in the mirror and still see my body at 200 pounds. I am looking forward to having my tummy tuck done so I can truly see what losing 70 pounds really looks like. I went to four different surgeons and I'm so glad I did. I have chosen the last surgeon for my tummy tuck. He was amazing. He Took the time to teach me and show me what my vision and his vision looks like. I requested a fleur de lis incision to help sculpt and get rid of my all over skin. I am more concerned with the results and the scar. I am paying for my surgery in cash so I will not schedule my date until the end of August 2016. That is when I will have all of the surgical fees paid off and my schedule will allow for the time off. Be gentle with my before pictures. I'm a work in progress. I look forward to keeping you all updated!

Surgery date set! And deposit paid! It's real now!
Oh my gosh ladies! I am soooo excited! I paid my deposit and set my surgery date for my tummy tuck! October 5th is the day! That gives me a few weeks to finish losing whatever weight I can. I am 13 days post op from my breast lift with augmentation. Oh baby! I'm going to be following everyone as I prepare for surgery. Let me know if you have any advice! Thanks!

Well, in 3.5 weeks I will have my tummy tuck with liposuction !! I am SOOOO excited!! Surgery is just about paid for. My pre-op surgical appointment is on September 28th. Surgery is scheduled for October 5th! I am concerned about having enough skin removed. Since my breast lift/breast augmentation I have noticed a lot of back skin. Maybe it's the bras I'm wearing or the extra 5lbs I gained since my first surgery. But I'm worried. Wondering if a 360 body lift would be better than the anchor scar I'm looking at doing. Any thoughts? I bought a binder and Ted hose for surgery online. Hoping that will work
