Hello! After reading the reviews and viewing the pictures on here as well as other sites I've decided to take the plunge! I've always hated my stomach. I lost over 40 lbs and have kept it off. Now I'm at a healthy weight I'm 5' 4 1/2" and approximately 133 lbs. I work out regularly and eat fairly healthy but my stomach won't go away. The photo below is a before and after of my weight loss. My stomach is hidden obviously. I will post pictures of my stomach later.
I had 2 consultations with 2 different office. Both we around the same price initially, but the 2nd offered a discount ($1,000) if I booked that day and was able to get me in sooner. My surgery was scheduled for 2 weeks after my consultation and on a Saturday. The doctor that's going to perform my procedure is a Board Certified plastic surgeon so I'm confident he will do a great job!

Hey I am very impressed that you losses 40lbs.. after 3 kids I would do anything to loose 40 lbs. I had my procedure about 6 weeks ago on my upper and lower but the truth is, I am still so unhappy... how did you lose so much weight and how long did it take? I am in a really desperate position right now and I feel like I've tried everything but the number on the scale just keeps going up. Any advice will be great. Thank for sharing and good luck on your procedure.

I lost my weight with the help of Weight Watchers and working out regularly. I've always struggled with my weight,WW was the only thing that's worked for me to keep it off. It took me about 8 months to lose 37 lbs. I maintained that for the most part but then it started to creep up again to 150 lbs in 2008. That when I joined WW for the final time. It took me a long time to lose the 20 or so lbs to bring me to my current weight, mostly because I'm stubborn. I've been this weigh for almost 2 year now. I like WW because I can eat whatever I want in moderation so I don't feel deprived. I hope that helps. Thanks!

Starting to get nervous!
My procedure is one week away! I'm starting to get nervous. I received an email from the office with instructions. I'm confused as to what to wear that day? They stated to wear dark loose clothing and a shirt that does not go over my head. I was planning on wearing sweatpants, only pants that I have that are loose. No idea what to wear for a top? All my tee shirts go over my head. They also suggested towels for my car and bed because of drainage. How much drainage are we talking about? The thought of have liquid secrete from my stomach makes me want to hurl. I have a sensitive stomach and get grossed out easily. They also suggested maxi-pads to catch the drainage... how does one attach a maxi-pad to their stomach? I'm feeling faint just thinking about it. My post-op appointment is Monday so I'm sure they will discuss these items.

hey, if you are nervous, reschedule it out and continue to some research. secondly, may i add, if this is the last place your body is holding on to something, that's because it truly needs it. if you remove it, it will come back somewhere else...please check out the thread, "did you gain weight after lipo." it is very insightful and also the thread about how lipo is not for thin people (which you already appear to be). not preaching, just want you to have all the information you can possibly have before you make a decision/go through with it.

Thanks, I think I'm nervous because I've never had surgery. This is something I've wanted for a long time so I'm going to go through with it.

My procedure is on Monday and I'm just going to wear a zip up hoodie over my bra.
