Im a thick bone women have 2 children. 5 year old and 4 month both girls. I've always wanted to ha e a tummy tuck, but never thought I would actually go head and get it. After my 2nd baby I really need to get rid of this extra baggage. I started my research and went to my 1st consultant. I was educated. I thought all this time I would only need a mini tuck, but I need a full tuck with muscles repair. Well my concerns is picking up my baby. Thank God for my mother. She agreed to come and help me. Im looking forward to having this surgery this summer. Waiting for the kids to be out of school. My mom does not drive me. Im still search for another dr to do a 2nd consultant in NJ, once I get back from spring vacation with my family. Im.soo excited and nervous. Will keep you all posted

I went to two different surgeons for a consultation. The first surgeon my neighbor gave me his name from working with him in the hospital. The 2nd surgeon I found off RS and went because of the review. Both DR’s were pretty honest and up front with the procedure, they both gave me the same information. I decided to schedule my surgery with Dr. Tushar Patel he was the recommendation from my neighbor. The office is super close to my house; therefor it will be easier to get to. I’m super excited. I’m scheduled for August 5th. I do need to lose more weight, he told me to try and get to my pre pregnancy weight which was 205, and my goal is to be at 189 or close to it by then, I have about 20lb to lose. Not easy at all. I will keep posting as the date get closer.

Kflo3. Im so excited and nervous. My next appointment is june 12th to go over everything again with the dr and give a deposit. Do you also have to lose weight or are you at your goal weight

I haven't set my date yet, because of the funds. it is looking like Aug 3 I might set now. I am waiting till the end of June to make sure I will have the funds. The PS didn't tell me to lose weight. she just said that I am a great candidate for it. Which it doesn't hurt to lose. I always want to lose! I had reach my goal, but gained a few since. 15 pounds of it. with stress! I wasn't happy with myself, when I was at my goal weight is what leading me to get the TT! What date are you picking? it is so exciting and anxious to get it done! I read RS and I read one bad review from my doc that is making me scared now....ooooo so hard to decided which doc. I really liked her but after reading the bad review......I am scared now! :-(
May 6, 2015
what do you do... ladies... when that happens? you read one bad review from your doc and your thoughts go ugly..... :-(
May 6, 2015
My date is August 5th and im glad I set that early because he also have another surgery that date. I have a small window to work with. I have to be back to work on 8/24 because of other co workers vacation. I dont give the deposit until July. Its costing me $8300 here in Jersey. What state do you live in...

That is tough. Was the review about the surgery out come or his bedside manner. If you dont feel comfortable I would go with another surgeon

plainfield il. surgery outcome. but looks like revisions helped out which is a plus! I feel comfortable with her.... it is more .... will I have a difference and a great job done on this tummy!

We just have to pray that all goes well and be confident in the decision. If you have any doubts I would go with someone else. We are in this together. So what are you doing to prepare yourself. I need to start making a list of things I will need
May 7, 2015
you are right! I am reading RS everyday! LOL! learning on here. Making my funds grow till the time comes. If all goes as plan I will have it done Aug 3rd. Called the doc office to see if they charge for revision, they said no. So that is a plus. I think I way over thinking it. I just gotta relax and looking forward to the day.

Very excited for you! If I may, stay away from carbs and eat lots of protein. Chicken, veggies, salads with Oil/vinegar only! No dressings. That's how I lost over 100lbs. Good luck ;-)

Dollface66 thanks for the advice. This week im on a lemonade detox, just until Saturday. Im working out 3-4 days a week. I lost 16lbs since April. My goal is to be 185lbs. So I have about 17 more to go. It's a struggle sometimes. Thanks for the encouragement.
