I am scheduled for a long overdue surgical mommy makeover in December. If you have gotten the tummy tuck and lift, please let me know about the recovery. I just want to hear what I am in store for during the holidays.

Ps. I posted this last night and got no feedback. Sorry if it is a repeat to some of you.

    Don't despair, someone might post. Bumping for you...a lot of people don't post on weekends. I have not had any of these surgeries, I would love implants if I had the money. :laugh:

    I want to wish you the best of luck with your surgery and a speedy recovery. :flowerforyou:

    Hmm, I wish I could get one of those too ... although I have only 1 child, I have lots of fat and excess skin hanging down my belly :(

    I am hoping by working on my dual bike daily will kick start the body to burn fats, but I am still in a lookout for exercises/workouts which targets the belly down ....

    Anyway, good luck with the surgery, and a speedy recovery!

    Thanks. I know... I waited 7 years for this and tried everything.

    not to scare you, and since you've waited 7 years it shouldnt be as bad because you dont have a newborn to take care of... but i got a c section with my son and boy it was painful! and the doctors said i recovered beautifully and fast. so i definately feel bad for those with a harder recovery.. and your incision/lift will be more serious. For me sitting up and getting out of bed was painful for about 2 weeks. and then 2 weeks after that was just a little painful, not nearly as bad but the first few days were bad.

    Good luck though! in the long run it'll definately be worth the pain!

    Do you mind me asking how much the mommy makeover would cost?? I am very interested in having this done. After losing over 100lbs and gaining and then losing again finally. I have alot of excess skin and my bellybutton looks odd. Love to have this done. I have my 2 boys and just separated so i could use the self confidence I once had!

    about 14,000 for the whole deal. The price varies. Go check it out. There is financing.

    I haven't had this done, I have been thinking about it for about 23 years...since my son was born. Now I hear that recovery ismore than a month before you can do anything. I like to workout hard, and am afraid that all that downtime would totally derail me.

    Yeah I am worried about the workouts too. But, I am tired of spinning my wheels especially with my stomach. They want me on the bike after two weeks and full working out at 6 weeks. I had my appendix out last year and my body got back in shape very quickly.
