Hello all, this is my very first review on real self. A little incite on me; I am a 30 year old with no kids. I have struggled with weight gain all my life and have tried almost all the diet fads. I've lost over 50lbs, (5 times), only to gain it all back within a few years. It's safe to say, my body has been through it all with the stretch marks and saggy skin to prove it.

For over a decade I've been contemplating plastic surgery, but have always been scared. I've gone from consultation to consultation but never fully committed...until now. I've lost over 50 lbs, (for the 6th time), and finally decided to get a tummy tuck to remove the excess skin.

I've scheduled my survey with Dr. Tavallali in Vienna, VA on December 18th, 2015.

Hey girl welcome to the community.  First off congratulations on the weight loss.  This is a hard task on it's own.  Having the tummy tuck will keep you on task with the weight loss after surgery.  I found that once I had mine it kept me honest with the diet.  I didn't want to go back to the old me.  

I will be anxious to see your results so please keep us up to date.

Hi there, thank you for the warm and friendly welcome! It definitely has been a decade long journey for me and I'm both nervous and anxious to have the procedure done. I will keep you posted along the way as I countdown to the big day!

2 weeks left and I just picked up my meds! I am so nervous! All I can focus my mind on is this surgery. I have waited so long for this and I'm praying it turns out beautifully. I've been searching past patients of Dr. Tavallali and have been reading mixed reviews, but I truly believe I chose the right Doctor and believe he will do an amazing job. Only time will tell... Stay tuned!
