12 days post op - Seattle, WA

I'm 5"10... about 140lb... 32B (truly A, if it were not the skin!). I have a 6 year old boy, my one and only! I have considered the Mommy Makeover for the past 4 years. After working out 5 days a week and getting fit, I am still unhappy with my body. I simply can't stand the skin. Before my son, I was a 34DD, since 6th grade. Having lost my breast after breast feeding, I have absolutely NO curves. I'm tall, muscular, but no booty, no boobs, and extra skin on the belly. That doesn't exactly scream sexy!! I don't mind how I look in my clothes, but when they come off, I want my confidence back that I had prebaby! The abs are there, the skin just has to go! :)

I'm terribly nervous. I have a wonderful support group. I have bounced back and forth on sizing. I remember how difficult it was before when I was a 34DD finding button up shirts and clothes that fit propperly.. So I'm thinking a 32D... I make my final decision tomorrow at my appointment!

Proceedures: Tummy Tuck, Breast Lift and implants. Thankfully, no lipo needed on the flanks!

Before Photos to come: ACK!!!
Just readdy for "Agatha" aka my aggervating belly to be gone!!! Oh and my breasts to no sleep in my underarms when I lay down!!!

Only 2 more days to go!! I'm seriously ready for my breasts to stand at attention and stop sliding out of my training bras or hiding in my under arms. I have been going through a mix of emotions, but right now, feeling much more confident in my surgery. I just keep reminding myself that this is a process and at least I have this forum to share.

I spent the entire week "daddy" organizing that house. I have some major OCD. I have all the laundry done, and labels on everything... not to mention a binder for the poor guy with a list of snacks and how to do everything for our special needs son. He is always traveling for work, but in his words "We are going to dude it, I survived Iraq, we got this babes." hah So, with those wise words of wisdom, as long as my little one gets his meds on schedule, fed, and bathed, we are doing good!! It shall be interesting to say the least. I'm just so glad that he is so SUPPORTIVE. When I start to doubt myself and my decision, he reminds me that I'm worth this and that its for me. While yes, he will love the results, he just wants me to love my body like I did when we met.

So, surgery it is Monday morning with a report time of 9:30... I can't wait to not have to buy training bras and wear some sexy one's from the ladies department and not the little girls!! :)

Finally BRAVE enough to post my preop photos considering in less than 72 hours, this will be my old body!! I work so hard to stay fit, but there is just nothing that can be done with excess skin, but the hand of a skilled PS.
