    Ok I’ve been googling tummy tucks and I’m not sure I can go through with it! The recovery seems really brutal. I’ve got my surgeon consultation in a week and now I’m terrified! Is the pain I feel from my separated ab muscles worth the pain I’m going to put myself through to fix them? I don’t know! I know knowledge is power but I’ve completely freaked myself out now 🙁

    you just need to think, will this change your life, happiness, self esteem etc? Is a few weeks of pain going to outweigh the massive life changing effect of cosmetic surgery? nothing that makes us look good is ever going to be a walk in the park. Google is the devil! xx

    Will this change my life – Yes, I have stomach, rib and back pain daily.
    Will I be happier – Yes, I won’t be worried about every niggle I feel. I’ve had gluten intolerance tests, liver and kidney function tests etc and it appears all my pain is down to my unstable core and pulled muscles!
    Will this help my self asteem – Yes because my stomach will match the rest of me and I can stop having to leave my top button undone on my jeans because it’s too painful to close.

    Thanks Amy, this helps a lot! I just want my abs to stop hurting, the thin thing is a lovely bonus! Just being a wuss, i know I need this doing. I need to think of the end results! And yes Google is the devil! Horrible stories out there!

    I think in your situation if you can afford it then do it. It’s one of those things that you’ll always regret Not doing.
    I’ve been thinking about doing mine for about 2 years.. And before it was for the wrong reasons as I wasn’t prepared to work out, it was a quick fix. Now I know I’ve done everything I can and that fold of skin would not go away no matter what.
    If your muscles are as bad as you describe, your reasons are definitely the right ones.
    Wish you the best of luck!
