I was originally looking into an abdominoplasty to help with my constant battle with lower back pain. After my daughter was born, 4yrs ago, I have struggeled with back pain. It kept getting worse and I've tried PT, Massage and regular adjustments. I have no core muscles and therefore that leaves my back completely supporting my body.

Well I figured it's time to post a couple pics. I'm also getting a little nervous. I feel bad getting ready to spend a lot of money on myself but I know it'll be worth it in the long run. I appreciate all the stories and support on here. I've done lots of research and I found that youtube is also awesome. Well to pass the time I'll be making plenty to do lists and making sure I update my account.

Pre-op was today!

Well only two short, highly anticipated weeks until the flat side! My pre-op was quick and not too bad. I had a couple of questions, such as do I need to shave? That was a no. I don't need to use Hibicleans before surgery either, and every youtube video I watched everyone did, but that's ok. Less for me to worry about. I know I'll probably have my drain in for two weeks, yuck. And surgery should only take about 2 1/2 hours. I go in on June 5th at 7:15. It's right around the corner. No turning back, surgery is scheduled and paid for!!!
