Hello! I'm 38 years old, married with two kids who were both large babies. I was a fat kid and have see-sawed in weight +/- 20 lbs since I was 13. After my second child turned two I started working out and fell in love with it.
I would love to lose 15 lbs but I haven't had the willpower to be on a strict diet. I work out intensely 3-4 x a week each session for 90-120 minutes but will never get rid of the excess skin.
After much research I knew I wanted a full TT, breast implants and something done about my saggy upper arms. I had a few consults and knew my PS was the right one after I left. He was very professional and I could see his perfectionist mindset. He was very forthcoming about the results I could expect. His office manager is so wonderful as is his nurse.
Oh- I am 5'5 and 135 lbs.

I am starting to get really excited and scared about the recovery! Up until now I haven't been nervous but the pain and discomfort I'll go through is freaking me out a little. The BA isn't as nervewracking as the brachioplasty and TT. I figure that I won't be able to lift my arms very high for a while and wondering how difficult it will be to get up to go to the bathroom.
I have all my supplies, just need to do some grocery shopping the day before! I keep looking at the other ladies reviews and seeing how beautiful they look to get me through this fear!

Keep working out until your surgery day! I did cardio kickboxing 3 days a week and karate 2 days week and boy did it help me after surgery. After having the TT, you learn to use your leg strength a ton! Honestly, if I didnt work out, I would have been worse off. Good Luck to you. :-)

Thank you so much! These past few days I haven't felt super motivated to work out so your comment helps!

I didn't get that but I could imaging you will be needing help pushed forward. I heavily rely on my elbows now to get me up and the momentum from my leg swinging. I'm anxious to see your recovery I was debating a thigh lift but though I'd be over doing it all at the same time!! Your so close now :) time for sleepless nights and nerves to kick in!!!

Hello everyone! I spent today grocery shopping and cleaning the house. Just went for a run and will cuddle with the kids till bedtime.
The nurse called to let me know I have a 6:30 arrival time. She read off all the procedures and then said "whew, good thing you are young and healthy! You know you will be here for a long time?" That made me a little uneasy!
Hoping I can sleep tonight :)
