I am 26 and a mother to 5 (2 biological) my 3 step kids are with me and my husband full time there mother passed away about 2 years ago. I have an amazing family and so proud. As a teenager my weight always fluctuated, by senior year in high school i had dropped a lot of weight and didn't realize it. I was diagnosed with mono was super skinny by that time and did not look healthy. I got married at 21 and got a little too comfortable and gained about 40 lbs and then got pregnant with our daughter the day i delivered my beautiful 9lb baby i was 218lbs. I divorced my now ex-husband about 1+ year ago when my daughter was 18 months after all the lies abuse and cheating i found myself again and started losing weight. I got down to about 160lbs (i'm 5'7) and i felt good about myself but not great. I started dating a close friend of mine and he asked me to marry him only 3 months after my divorce was final but we were so in love and i said "yes". One month to the day of our engagement I found out I was pregnant. I then blew up again to 220lbs. (ughhhh) I delivered my angel about 4 months ago via repeat c-section and through strict dieting and the wonderful hcg diet I am down to 162 today and still have more weight to drop i am on my second round for another 2 1/2 weeks. After all the weight fluctuation and two beautiful girls and breast feeding i am left with stretch marks skin and NOT 26 year old boobs. I am a momma tiger who has earned her stripes and as proud of being a mom as i am i want my stripes gone. So I have been driving my husband crazy always talking about my body and disagreeing every time he says I am perfect i figured i would join and drive you all crazy :) kidding. I am super excited and cant wait to play at the beach with my kids or feel comfortable to join my husband in a nice bath or to put clothes on and love the way it looks.

So my hubby thinks I should have the surgery end of December on 12/28 instead of first week of January. Of course this sounds great to me since I would have it soon but my consultation is on 12/7/12 do you think this will be enough notice for my doctor that I choose. Should I call the office and ask if he has that day available? I need input thanks ladies :) getting more and more excited

Provider Review

Saw my doctor for a one week visit today and he said everything looks great. He took out the stitches for the Lipo spots and he said next week he will take out stitches from the boobs and tummy. He also agreed I was swollen and puffy on tummy and from Lipo and it will take weeks to go away. I asked about hiding it in a bathing suit he agreed it will take a thicker band or higher wasted bathing suit to hide it but to give it time for the swelling to go away cause it can change the way it sits. I'm not in a rush to go bathing suit shopping but would love to know if I'm buying a one piece of two peice. All in all they were happy with how I'm standing walking and looking so I'm happy too.
