Only 2 Days Until My Tummy Tuck!!



Recommended Posts

So excited!!! I'm doing a Tummy Tuck with full muscle repair and a breast lift and augmentation.

My PS does the full muscle repair and then goes back in and sutures the muscles corset style. He said it gives a more defined waist line. He also uses the no drain technique and I'm getting a pain pump.

I've wanted this for so long now! I must admit though, I had to take a deep breath when I went to pay for it all last week.eek.gif I know it will be worth it though.

If I could be so crude to ask.....What is the cost of your procedure? Inquiring minds want to know! :)

So jealous! I think its finally hit me after six years that things aint getting any better, that last few lb is not going to make the difference, lol.

Very best of luck, hope its easy to recover from, and I'm sure you'll be thrilled with the results.

Thanks everyone! I live in a small town. It's only costing me $11,500 total. At the closest BIG city to me it's $10k for JUST a tummy tuck.o__O

I'll update as soon as I can.

Best wishes to you. Hope all goes smoothly (and flatly too - as in tummy flat!).

Let us know how you're doing afterwards.

Take care.

I made it! I got my TT and breast implants yesterday. I was given a lot of Phenergan so I've been really sleepy and that's been the worst of it so far. I got a pain pump for my belly and so far I haven't taken any pain meds at all. Hopefully I can keep that up.

Glad to hear it's going so well. No pain meds - WOW! I hate taking them because of nausea but I was on them for at least a week.

Look forward to seeing updates. Hope you continue to do so well.

Take care.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
