Wow! Beautiful work! I am going in for TT in January. I hope I look half this great! Did you have arms done or were you one of the lucky, no wing girls?

I'm getting the arms done with the TT. Again if I get work half as great as yours I will be delighted. Happy that you have had wonderful results!

Thanks, everyone!! I just want people to know that is does get better!! At first I did have the whole painting a room mentality (once you paint one room you notice how horrible the rest of your rooms look kinda thing) but now I don't even mind my wobby thighs, un-full breasts, or scars. I like me "as-is" and that's a good feeling!!

Your tumm and arms look amazing! Do you see the scars on your arms much anymore? Your PS did a fab job with making you tight but it not looking unnatural on your tummy and putting that scar nice and low. Beautiful work!
