Time is ticking till my surgery comes, super excited!!!
So i am 26 and the day after my 27th Bday, i will finally be getting my stomach back. I have two healthy boys 6 and 3, but after gaining 60lbs with each child they completely streched out my stomach. I am so so so so self conscious about it and i literally think about it at least every hour of every day. It holds me back and i cant wear the kind of bathing suits or clothes i want too. its so depressing knowing i am at my pre baby weight and i cant get ride of this sagging skin! i always have to tuck in my pouch and it drives me crazy!!! I went to see my doctor a few months ago and told him i just want my flat tummy back. He informed me that i would not need a complete tummy tuck because i am not that over weight. He said that i would benefit from lipo to the full abdomen all the way up to my bra line, lipo to flanks, and the back. He will then make an excesion of skin and cut out the remainder skin that sags. He is also going to fix my belly button because it is all jacked up. As a joke i asked if since he was sucking out all that fat if he could just stick it in my butt and he said yes!!! He said i would benefit greatly and he could help fill it out a little more.......hell yes!
So i went yesterday for my preaddmission apt and i got all my pre surgery pics done and they took my measurements for my garments. I am really excited, i just want that day to come, put me to sleep and ill deal with the pain after that. I will also be getting my nose done at the same time and he said that will be the most painful afterwords. ill post some pics of my nose for you all too.
p.s. sorry about the bumps on my stomach...i was freezing taking the pictures.

Thanks for your concern Angie. trust me going under of course scares me but i am trying to stay optimistic. being a doctor in the plastic surgery world you will always have so many people pointing fingers and terrible things that could happen.....Alot of plastic surgeons have experienced a patient that didn't make it, thats life, its not so much the doctors fault. Some people just cant handle it. going under elective of course brings so many thoughts through my head. that is why i am 100% honest with my doctor and taking good care of myself

I have had a nose job and they are wonderful but I am not sure I would have done it at the same time as lipo,you don't need to be worrying about how to breath with your nose totally packed along with lipo pain! However,I see you have 2 kids so your time is limited to stay down, I pray you have a wonderful helpful husband or mom! You will look great because unlike me you are young and thin:)

I think i will be fine. the doctor said my stomach will feel like i did 500 situps, he said my nose will probably be the most uncomfortable. but i got all my meds. i wanted to get them all done at once, it ends up cheaper and i have a very good pain tolerence. plus im a pretty strong girl ( being a mother and all lol) Honestly i am so ready and so excited, i am ready to get put to sleep and wake me up after its over and THEN i will deal with the pain.
