Mc Tuck
I can’t believe I am sitting in a plastic surgeon’s waiting room…….

No, I don’t live in Hollywood, nor am I about to star in the next episode of Nip Tuck (as much as I would love to). I am simply hoping to remove the excess skin that is hanging from my stomach.

Stepping onto the scales this morning was exhilarating, not since I was twenty have I seen 79.8kgs on the scales. What an achievement…. I can now officially say, since having children, I have lost 30kgs!!!! Never in a million years, would have thought I was capable of achieving such a feat.

How did I do it you may ask?? Well it was bloody hard; it took a lot of self-realisation, accountability and enthusiasm. I accepted that there are foods that I just shouldn’t eat, and got on with living life. I must admit that the presence of those certain foods is always something I struggle with, but in general I feel content with my new “healthier” lifestyle.


At the sound of my name being called I realized that my destiny awaits me, I am going to have a flat stomach again. And maybe even a nice pair of boobs.

Wow, I thought sexy plastic surgeons were only a TV myth, what a bonus!

We discussed the procedure and its pros and cons, I don’t remember hearing any cons though cos I was too busy staring at the breast implants sitting on the desk. Of course not being able to contain myself, I asked about the possibility of putting the two surgeries together. He said that it is possible and that it would probably save me money, gosh I love a bargain! I especially enjoyed it when I got to put the implants in my bra, very sexy………..

So the outcome is that due to my health insurance waiting period, I have ten months until I can afford the procedures, bummer. On the up side it’s a good reason to lose the rest of my weight…….


So how much do I need to lose???

According to the World Health Organisation, to be considered healthy I need to have a Body Mass Index between 18.5 and 24.8kg/m2. This means I should weigh somewhere between 54 and 71 kilos. I have decided that it would be in my best interest to aim for a BMI of 24 (69.4kgs), that way I will be more likely to maintain my weight. Don’t forget I will probably lose another ten kilos when they remove all my excess skin, oh god I hope my skin outweighs the implants. Maybe I should start taking bets... instead of “how much will my baby weigh” it would be “how much will my stomach weigh?”

So there it is my goal is to get down to 69kgs in forty weeks, I have a feeling that the last ten kilos will be the hardest!!!! But hey, it’s only one kilo per month I can do it!
