I have been debating about this mommy makeover for awhile now. Well last month I went to see a Board Certified Plastic Surgeon and decided to go ahead and get my mommy makeover. I have tried every diet there is and trust me I have done anything from 6 small meals a day to the cabbage diet to colonics and the master cleanse for detox and many more. And nothing. I had a baby last year and the weight just will not come off! IT's like a whole new kind of fat lol
I had my breast done today Friday July 27 and they are all wrapped up so I can't see them yet. I will take out all the bandages tomorrow. I hope I like them!
And Monday morning July 30 at 8am I am going under for 5 1/2 hours. I am having lipo on my inner/outer thighs, arms, knees, upper stomach, hips, flanks and then my tummy tuck. I was scared about going under with my breast aug, but I don't remember a thing. I am REALLY nervous about the pain when I wake up on Monday. But at the same time I am very excited!
I am so glad I found this site so I can my story with other people who are going thru what I am going thru. And that is losing weight and being healthy!
P.S. My sentences may not make much sense, I am on pain med from my surgery this morning lol
Congratulations! Me and a friend have a on-going joke that we will put "things" back to where they belong after having a baby. And your sentences make perfect sense!

lol My best friend and I did as well. I opted for the lipo/ tummy tuck and she when and had lipo-dissolve.
After having kids your body just does a 360. It is a whole new body. I didn't think getting rid of baby weight would be this hard acutally. I had always been a good size before I got pregnant. I was 5'5 and 135lbs. And when I got pregnant I went all the way up to 230lbs. That's almost 100lbs that I gained. I lost 60lbs on my own but then nothing else came off. We are not having anymore babies even though I would LOVE 1 more. Having Tori was a blessing. But trust me I plan on adopting at least 2 =)
I did not losing weight could be so hard, because I never had that trouble before. My hubby loves me chubby though lol He says it's very sexy =)
He is alittle sad that I am having all this work done, but I think he is alittle excited as well =)
Congrats on your surgery!! It's rather interesting that they are doing it on 2 different days. I always thought that going under anestic (sp?) so close in a row would cause problems. But I would trust the doctor. Good luck on Monday!!!
