TT scheduled! March 17th :)
This St. Patrick's day will be amazing! My surgery is scheduled for 11am and they said I would be there about 6 hours. In addition to the TT, he will do a tiny bit of lipo to even the ends of the scar out and I have hernia. :( So he will need extra time to fixe that, but thankful it will be repaired
I have been so addicted to this site ha. I can't thank people enough for sharing their experiences. I feel like I'm going into the completely alone. I don't have really anyone to talk about it with, my friends do not understand I keep getting the "oh, just love your self for you bs.. coming from the removed Kardashian sister who's never had kids and built like Barbie! I My sweet totally get's it and is happy if I'm happy. He tells me if I shaved my head had 4 nipples and word a rice sack I'd still be the most beautiful person ever ha. But he gets my hate for my stomach and supports this 110%.
Ok so I just ordered Arnica pills and cream, in addition to Bio Oil. WHATELSE... suggestions please! :) The count down is finally on!!

Here we go AGAIN!! Tummy Tuck in March :)
Yep... that's right... I'm back on RealLife which means... I'm ready to get my TT. This time last year I did lipo on my lower stomach and "thought" it would cure my "I hate my feeling". It was a great experience ... for the most part. It's been one year and it looks exactly like it did the day before I went in. :(. My original are my protruding stomach and stretch marks. I thought if I just get a little help I would eventually feel better. My family and I went on a vacation of a life time... 7 days at Beaches in Turks and Caicos' Island in the Caribbean. Sadly I stayed covered up the entire trip and didn't enjoy the trip much as I could. So... I have decided to go balls to the wall and do a tummy tuck!!! I've wanted one for 14 years and just never felt like I could actually "do it". .. because of money, work, two kids, excuse , excuse, excuse. Enough is enough. I think I have deiced on Dr. Remington in Kirkland, Wa. He was by far the BEST consult I've ever had. (Been to around 10!). My job ends on March 3rd, so I think I'm going to schedule it for the 16th. Super excited and nervous at the same time! Look out world.. here I come!
Two Weeks Post Op
Hello!
Ok sorry for not updating in awhile.. gesh.. time flies by! ha.
My 1 week post op was not this past Friday but the one before. It was seriously a 2 minute deal. Just walked in said Hey, doing ok, they didn't' actually look at anything , asked if I had any questions and that was it. I did mention the pain oddly enough was getting worse, but she said it's normal. She also said as I the pain eased to start the massaging in circle to break up any scar tissue that might be starting to form. The best news is.. the big black compression suit, she said I didn't have to wear any longer. The swelling was very low and no bruising, so she said she'd down grade it to a simple wrap around and call it good. The down side of that one.. it's bulky and you can't wear it under clothes. :( I did order a Lipo Foam and wear it while I sleep under my new CG, LOVE IT!!!!!!!! I think i'll keep wearing it even after hey say I don't' have too. I love how comfortable and flat my stomach is when I wake up! winner winner chicken dinner!
This past week, it's been going ok. The day after surgery I was 8 lbs heavier, which I assumed was bloating etc.. but I'm still 8 lbs heavier which I don't understand. I have started to massage in little circles to keep the scar tissue down... I've only found 3 very small knots on my left side, where there's really no fat on top of the muscle. Like if I tighten my muscled there I can feel the knots. Does that make sense? None the less, massaging hurt like heck! I'm still really sore to touch, not to move and my skin is still numb which feels very weird :) I just keep telling my self, it's only been two weeks it's normal ha. As I look today am about 80% happy with how everything is.. there's a "donut" area around my belly button that I wish he would of taken more out of.. it's still that round pudgy kind of thing.. but we'll see. I know everyone says it can take months.. but man I'm so excited already how quickly it's gone.. I guess I got spoiled ha I will post pictures this evening.

Provider Review
I am pretty happy with my results so far. The procedure went quick and easy, no real issue at ALL, very limited swelling and almost ZERO bruising! I would say that Dr. Bullis really knows what he's doing if he can do a procedure and just days later, no one can tell at all, they only see the results and ask "wow, how did you do it". To learn more about him: http://athenixbody.com/the-athenix-difference/our-physicians/w-john-bullis-m-d/ He was very polite, professional, answered my 100 questions and was just all around very personable. The day of the procedure, he came in.. marked me up then headed to the OR. The office was pretty quiet that day, but even during my in and out of sleep I could hear him talking and saying oh I like this or I'll do a little more here etc.. so to me.. he wanted his best work, which is a huge win for me! ha
