I have always been thin & able to eat what ever I want without putting on weight until I hit my 40's. The only place I put on weight is my tummy & I hate it. I work for doctors so had an excellent PS recommended to me who I saw a couple of months ago & she has assured me I will have a flat tummy after surgery but will also need a vertical incision as I don't have enough loose skin. I have been put on a afternoon list on Tuesday 27/5/14 & will be spending 3 nights in hospital. I am really nervous & excited at the same time. This site has really helped me as I have really enjoyed following so many different journeys. I will post some before pictures soon.

I had a consultation last month for a MM. The PS told me that I didn't have enough loose skin in my abdomen either, but didn't mention a vertical incision. He told me that rather than completely removed the skin that has the hole for the belly button, he would only be able to partially remove that and make a very small vertical repair near the mons to close up the hole. Is this what your PS meant? I was reading your review and trying to visualize (as I do when I read everyone's reviews on here! LOL).

I am having a full tummy tuck with the belly button to be repositioned but the PS advised I don't have enough loose skin that's why I need a vertical incision. If u check out "ready to see my tummy" by justcallmebri she has had a vertical incision & she looks great, I was a bit worried before I saw her results.

Today is the day, my admission is 12 & I am scheduled for around 3.30. Feeling mixed emotions excited & nervous. I finally took some before photos as this was the last chance. Once I work out how to add them I will. My next update I will be on the flat side :)

I made it to the flat side, 1st day post op I was very sore last night especially getting out of bed to go to the toilet. Feeling much better today I haven't seen it yet as dr not coming around till tomorrow but it is looking flat even with the bulky binder. I just had all the family here & am surrounded by beautiful flowers. All good so far :)
