Tummy tuck, liposuction and fat transfer

WORTH IT
Am going to be Andrew Hodges doll soon. Wow, I can’t believe I made it here. Am a mother of 3 kids with diastasis recti. After my last child, I realized that something was odd with my stomach. When I lie on my back, I see movements around my belly button and sometimes a protrusion. Then I went for scan and found out my stomach wall was separated. I tried so many exercises but it got worst. Finally I I settled for surgery but I chickened out twice but now am ready to do it. I meet with my PS today and he answered all my questions and my heart is at peace. All my fears gone though my only worry is pain and recovery but am good to go.

Contemplating to stop working out or not.

Am really glad to be here. I have been reading people’s reviews and now am writing mine.i work out a lot but as I was on the thread mill, I remembered my ps being worried about getting enough fat to transfer to my breast cos he said I have very little fat to harvest and he can’t do a Lipo on my stomach cos it might affect the healing of my tummy tuck so the only place he can get fat from is above my butt which will have an upside for me cos my butt will be well defined. So should I stop working out to avoid losing fat?

I made payment on Monday so there’s no longer room to chicken out which gives me a mixed feeling. Am really very excited to get it over with and I know it’s what I want but am just a little scared which I think is normal for everyone I hope. Am only worried about recovery and what to tell people when they ask me what’s wrong with me cos in this part of the world, cosmetic surgery is considered vain. Anyway, I don’t really care much about what they will say cos it’s my body and my choice. I remember sharing it with some friends indirectly and they all frowned at it so no telling anyone. Even my husband is not jumping for it cos he thinks am good like this and that my diastasis is not a big deal that I can’t live with. He is just scared about the surgery and what the outcome will be cos he has heard so much about botched stories.Well all in all, am ready to do this. I believe am in good hands with my doctor. ????

I’m not telling people either I’m just saying I’m having hernia repai and that’s it. Only my husband and parents know. My kids don’t even know. They will just think I’m recovering from hernia surgery. I’m doing this for me to help me feel better about the way I feel and look and I just thought I’d rather keep it to myself to avoid judgment. We deserve this!!! :)

Just exactly what I planned on telling people. That am having my hernia repaired. Cos each time I complain about my tummy sticking out and always bloating people think am ungrateful to God that there are many women with bigger issues but I know how I feel and I need to be happy so I stopped telling anyone.
