I am a 28 year old mother of three children a 1 year old, 6 year old and an 8 year old. Since my first born son I have been wanting to get plastic surgery to fix my saggy skin and breasts. I was going for the mommy make over tummy tuck, BA and lip on outside thigh back of thighs and knees. I have always gone up and down with my weight but for the most part I never gained more that 10lbs before noticing I needed to get my big ass up and start moving again. I am currently 5'3 and weigh 123lbs however no matter how much I exercise I have all my weight in my butt hips and thighs. I had gone on a few consults and meet with my doctor and from the moment I talked to him I felt very comfortable. I paid 5k of my procedure up front and I am scheduled for December 3rd. I am scared that the lipo is gonna hurt the most and also be the hardest to recover from.

i have been through my preop and my surgery is scheduled in 2 days. the one thing i was worried about was the size i chose which was 500 or should i do 550's??? I am also worried cause i am hoping my lipo on my knees and thighs comes out the way i imagine in my head. I am not looking for super model legs or butt, nor am i looking for perfect, but i hate hate hate the way my legs are shaped and i am most worried about looking amazing up top and not so hot below. I hope its just cold feet worries anyone out there have the same concerns???? ugh so ill be back soon. xoxox

I hear you. I had to stay overnight in the Hospital after my Lipo. They're not use to Elective surgeries. The nurses were excellent in Recovery. But when I got a room...forget it. I was on a constant drip the IV was in my right arm. I had to pee every hour with that drip!! I couldn't get up by myself with the drip machine, my abs, my legs underneath. Those nurses were horrible. I'd ring they'd make me wait 20 min. Slow torture!! I'm going to make sure this Hospital knows how I suffered. Rude too, I'd ring & one RN said: "now what??" That's NY actually Long Island, for you...people are just beligerant!!!
