Have 6 children of my own i am done. Ready for a tummy tuck and lipo. Had first consult going for a flat tummy get rid of belly fat as well. Have been thinking about this for 2 years. I have done my research on the procedure and the doctor. After careful consideration i weighed the risks and i finally decided to do something for me. I am sure now i want this done. Cant wait to wear a two piece for our family vacation. Super excited!!

Same boat!! It's been a freaking roller coaster of emotions!!! I'm to the point I'm ready there's no turning back because I know I will live the rest of my life wondering what if! So it's now or never! Are you having your surgery at an actual hospital? Mine is so that gave me a little bit of reassurance !
