I feel like a SELL OUT!

I hadn't seen any of your posts prior to this, but you should know that you're NOT a sell out.

A sell out would be somebody who got liposuction and a tummy tuck without even trying first. You deserve to feel great about yourself and if a tummy tuck and breast augmentation is what it took to accomplish that then there's nothing wrong with that. You look awesome!

You look awesome!!! I have given myself 2 years to save money and work my *kitten* off!!! If I cannot lose my c-section flap on my own then I will go under and have the stuff done cosmetically, if I do lose it on my own because I know it CAN be done, then I will just use the money I have saved for the Camera I always wanted, seems legit to me.

You are not a sell at all, I'm sure if I had the money now I'd do it now without thinking twice about it. I've worked my *kitten* off to lose this weight and my stomach does not look great and I'm sure is the reason my confidence isn't where it SHOULD be now.

You are not a sell out, and this is exactly how I feel. I have had 3 kids by c-section and I am working out and I can see the weight coming off and I am getting toned but that flap is still there and it really is never going to go away, and I have been seriously contemplating the "mommy" make over too! Who says that you can't look hot and have that perfect body after you have sacrificed your body for having children! It's almost like a celebration for what you have done.
I think you look amazing and hopefully some day soon I can post my before and after pics.

I'm one of the lucky ones whose body bounced back to pre-children days after popping out 3 kids (not c-section though). However, had I been in your position, I would not hesitate to do exactly what you did. You have to be fit and toned in order to achieve results like yours, even with surgery. I don't understand why you feel like a sell out. You shouldn't.

I used to be on the NO SURGERY LOVE YOUR BODY bandwagon...then I had 4 babies. I have 1 angel baby ( vaginal ), 1 abducted child ( vaginal ) a 6 1/2 year old who was an emerg c section that was cut hip to hip and a 28 month old who was an all natural vaginal birth. I have also had numerous pelvic surgeries and a full abdominal hysterectomy. There is NO amount of exercise I can do to get rid of my "flap". Trust me, I have tried. I am still working on my weight loss, AGAIN. I am sitting in the 160's on a 5'3" frame, and once I get down to 110-115 I will go in for a tuck and a breast lift.
I don't think anyone is a sell out if you are doing it for your health, whether it is physical or mental health. If you do it for selfish stupid reasons, that is another story. You worked your *kitten* of hun, you made beautiful babies, then you did your best to put your body back into it's best health. You cannot control your skin. You look amazing and if it makes YOU happy, it was all worth it!

I have had 4 c-sections. The first one was an emergency and my cut was from the belly-button down, the second along the same incision. The last two were by a different doctor and were cut across very low. So now I have kind of an anchor cut looking scar. I just started working out the beginning of Feb of this year. My starting weight was 215 and I am down to 202 as of this week. Thank you for your post. I would love surgery but I want to lose as much as I can on my own first. Keep up the good work!

Some things are just out of your control. You look great!

You have nothing to apologize for! There is some skin that just will not shrink back and you deserve to feel great about yourself. After my two c-sections I lost about 100 pounds (this was 10 years ago) and I decided to treat myself to having my apron removed. I have never regretted it. I gained back weight that I'm now in the process of losing again, but I have never been sorry I had the surgery. Congratulations on your hard work!
