It's taken me years to make the first consult appt and another 8 months to book, but I've finally scheduled my TT for March 29!! Excited and nervous!

I only weighed 98 lbs when I got pregnant the first time and I gained 55 lbs, lost most of it and only gained 45 lbs with the second. Managed to get looking pretty good after that, but having a third child 12 years later, gaining weight, and getting older has taken its toll. Over the last few years I lost about 35 lbs and just hate the belly that's left...every day it bugs me...

I've had a couple friends have breast augmentation which really got me thinking seriously about the TT. They loved the ps here in our town, so I finally booked a consult last June. Then I started a new job at a new company so had to wait a bit before taking the time off.

So happy to be connecting with others on this journey!

I haven't really compared, my friends loved Dr. Shenker at the cosmetic surgery clinic here so I went to meet with him, he is so nice! My sister in law is head of pharmacy at Cambridge hospital and affirms he is really good! My TT with some Lipo is coming in just around $10,000 cdn, but I'm not really a bargain shopper when it comes to something like this :) keep in touch on your journey!

You are going to love this clinic. I had my tummy tuck done December 28, 2015. My surgeon was Dr. Stephanie Ma. This clinic is so professional and everyone treats you like gold. Good luck and I will follow your journey

You story is so much like mine! I had 21 years between my 2nd and 3rd child and FINALLY had my TT s month ago! I was nervous because of my age, 67, but thrilled that I finally had it done! My ps is an artist and did a beautiful job! I guess I was meant to wait and have this talented dr do the surgery. All is good, I am ahead of schedule on the recovery and feeling great! Good luck to you!

Got paperwork and info from the ps today, it's becoming very real! They're really taking care of things, anti bruising mess will be provided, and all my prescriptions will be ordered and ready for the day of surgery. Hubby is eager and ready to help with whatever. We have a busy March so im hoping the time flies by. I'm such an organizer so like to plan ahead but the waiting is agonizing now that I've made the decision to proceed!
