Tuck It In: The final countdown
Join me as I search my soul for direction regarding my latest pursuit: A tummy tuck. Will I go through with it? Will I "Tuck It In?" Keep reading. Keep coming back. And you'll find out.April 3, 2008
On Tuesday, I went for my tummy tuck pre-op appointment. It went well. I got to ask all of my questions, got see some patient before and after photos, got to pose for my own "before" photo, got a fistful of surgery instructions, and got a few prescriptions to fill prior to surgery. I also got to pay my money. Three times, I got to pay my money -- once for my surgeon, once for his surgery center, and once for anesthesia. I'm all paid up. I'm all set. I'm ready for the big day: April 23.
It's official. I've decided to take the plunge and remove the sagging skin from my belly. My finishing touch, I'm calling it -- read more about my tummy tuck motivation here. The rest of my body is primed. My year-long diet/fitness overhaul has fueled me in all the right ways and has helped me achieve an ideal weight. Once the loose stuff stuck to my mid-section is gone, everything should be in tip-top shape. My mission then will be to maintain my final product as I continue my quest for good health.
Let the final countdown commence.
NOTE: Abdominoplasty is recommended for those whose skin and muscle cannot recover on their own as a result of significant weight loss, pregnancy, aging, heredity, or prior surgery. It is not a substitute for weight loss or an appropriate exercise program. For more information about this surgery, click here
