I've been contemplating having a tummy tuck for...

I've been contemplating having a tummy tuck for years now. After having 4 kids it just doesn't look so great anymore. I have major skin folds hanging down and abdominal muscle separation, which makes me look like I'm 3 months pregnant all the time. Pants with a 'comfort band' are my best friend. I can't stand that no matter how much weight I lose, I always have this ugly pouch hanging. Haven't worn a bikini in over 10 years.

I've been working out and have already lost 14lbs since January, planning on losing 10lbs more (hopefully) before the surgery, which is scheduled for June 6th. Originally I had a surgeon in mind but after reading his reviews I have decided to go with someone else. Dr. Jugenburg is top rated and his reviews are great. I have met Kim, the managing director of the clinic 2 weeks ago, and she has given me tons of info and answered all my questions. I will be meeting Dr. Jugenburg on May 5th and to get my blood work started. So excited to finally be doing this!

2 more weeks before another consult with Dr. J. Having a hard time losing weight and all those Easter chocolates aren't helping. Started high impact aerobics classes at the gym to see if it will help. Yesterday I thought they would have to peel me off the floor. Have also discovered 'Vega Protein Smooties'. Really yummy actualy and low calories and fat but high in protein. I will drink those for breakfast and lunch and hopefully that will help as well. need to cut down on carbs.

Still contemplating if I should have lipo on my flanks. I would like to but it's an extra $2000. plus not sure if it will make the swelling worse and ruin how I look for the wedding. Oh I guess I didn't mention that I have to attend a family wedding on July 19. I hope that I will look good enough after the surgery. That will give me exactly 6 weeks. Anyone have thoughts on that???

To tell or not to tell

I've told my sister about the procedure, however I don't really want to tell my mom because she tends to worry too much and make a big deal out of everything. Plus she'll say 'why do you need this? too much money! etc.'. But I need her help to stay with my kids on surgery day, since hubby will be with me. It would be easier if someone is at my house so they can go to school, rather than having them stay with someone for the night. The other things is that on day 3 & 4 post op, my hubby can't get the time off because of a huge meeting. I'm thinking of asking my mom to take time off work to stay with me but not sure if I want to tell her. No doubt she will already be asking about June 6th and what is going on. I was thinking of telling her that I'm getting my bladder fixed. LOL

After doing some research and finding awesome reviews on Dr. Jugenburg I decided that I wanted him to do my tummy tuck. It wasn't easy getting an appointment with him at a short notice but I met with Kim and she was so sweet and helpful. She managed to find me a surgery date in the near future and I ended up booking right away. Today I've had my consultation with Dr. Jugenburg. He is great! Made me feel very comfortable, very down to earth and straight to the point. He doesn't try to sugar coat it for you and will be honest if he thinks that a certain procedure won't give you the results you hope for. He didn't try to push additional procedures on me either and he answered all my questions. I feel very confident that he will do an amazing job. Everyone at the clinic is very nice and I feel like I can ask anything. 2 weeks post surgery now and I am soooooo glad that I chose Dr. Jugenburg. I look amazing already. Everything went smoothly and I felt super taken care of from beginning to end. Dr. J is very patient, very calm and reassuring and I never feel rushed. He answers all my questions and if I think of something then Kim is just a phone call away. Dr. J went above and beyond doing my tummy tuck and even some lipo to ensure I look my absolute best!
