    Hell Yes! If I had the money, I would totally do it! But that's just me!

    I'm getting it on 10/23! So yes I would do it. I expect some functional improvement because my skin gets in the way when I do Pilates/Yoga/Tennis, some emotional improvement (seeing a bag of skin flop towards you when you are doing an inversion working out is unsettling), some auditory improvement (no more flapping when I run) and some aesthetic improvement (the stretch marks and the frowning skin will be improved). My skin has gotten better in the last 2 months but it is still so loose and will never fully tighten. This is the hardest thing for me to accept, that I'm doing something for vanity but I also believe there will be other improvements. I'm sure my mother never imagined when she birthed me that she'd be going to the hospital with me for a tummy tuck and taking me home, but that's what life is throwing us and it's nice to have support.
