So, I check in at the surgical center at 6:30 tomorrow morning.

My surgeon will be in at 7am to mark me up and then surgery at 8am.

I lost about 130 pounds --- and have a bit of a muffin top (excess skin about the belly button), and a relatively small pannis.  (I wear size 8 jeans) --- but both bother me and I want them gone.

He is planning a hip to hip incision, progressive tension suturing (no drains), belly button re-placement and mons lift.

He expects about 4 hours worth of surgery --- a few hours in recovery and home by late afternoon.

I have my meds, my pillow for the ride home, my baggy clothes and my sweet husband --- I think that I am all set.
A bubble bath tonight and a good night's sleep and before I know it I will be on the 'flip side'.

I appreciate all of the info that this board has provided me as I made my decision to go forward with this surgery --- thank you all!!!
