  • marlena, is it possible for people who have had their tummy tucked to have kids... like when your baby is growing inside of you?

  •  U R SO BEATFUL EVEN WITHOUT MAKEUP

  • omg ily you pretty much answered all my question watching all your vids u helped me with really getting ready for my surgery i am really freaked out and trying my best but u did awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! im so happy all went well 4 u ur result are fantastic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • was it painful to take the comprssion garmet on and off? did you have to take it off and on daily?

  • we're all gunna always be with youuu Marlena!! <3

    p.s u r soo gorgeous without makeup <3 <3

  • I am so proud of you and best wishes from me to you :) Sweetie might I suggest La Mer's - The Concentrate (Its a serum) to heal your scars. I personality haven't tired it but I heard its excellent for post-surgery. You can read reviews on their site and my la mer specialist said think of it as "liquid bandage"

    Take Care

  • Continued from earlier post; I hope that I have the luck you have had with losing weight. I was pretty much confined to a chair for almost 2 years due to insurance complications; so even though I tried to eat right I still gained about 28 pounds. I really would like to lose that and a few more lbs. on top of that. Wish me luck and take care and good luck. Your loyal fans are rooting for you and are keeping you in our prayers.

  • Hi Marlena, I can sooo relate to you right now. I was sick for a really long time and ended up having to get a complete hystorectomoy. I didn't have quite as long of a insicion but you don't realize howmuch you use your muscles in your abdoman until you have surgery there and have to move. I walked around with a small pillow for about 3 weeks. My husband and son made fun of me because I was decorating our tree for xmas with a pillow tied around my waist. continued on next post....

  • Happy recovery girl! :)

  • <333333333333

  • aaww bless u r such a breath of fresh air lol

  • Me my self would never get surgery but that's my chose but u look amazing any way! I have no reason to judge u because one u made this chose to do this even though u looked beautiful before:) your r such an inspiration

  • marlena...thanx for being an inspiration for all of us who need that motivation...

    me..well i am not having a tummy tuck but i had a accident...3 years ago, and untill now i havent been brave enough to complete the physiotherapy, since i know ill never be able to walk completely normal.....but wow..you have inspired me to make an extra effort no mather how long does it takes. so i already started the physioterapy again and i am getting much better than i though, GOD BLESS YOU.

Im already nervous but excited Ive had 4 children and have been thinking of a tummy tuck for the past 10 yrs!! Really so happy that Im finally going thru with it.. What would u suggest to calm nerves about the surgery? Im so scared that Im not gonna wake up and Im afraid I wont be able to handle the rocery pain.. When were u able to return to work?

  • I'm on my 6th day post op tuck & breast lift. It's wonderful to be able to follow your recovery since you're a few weeks ahead of me! Encouraging to see I'm not going to feel like a train wreck forever!! Thanks for being brave enough to post something so personal!

  • 75 mentaly sick peoples ..

  • Hope you doing well!

  • Marlena, I just have to say that I am very proud of you for going public with this as it is a very controversial issue to some. I love you regardless of your cone shaped boobs, drain tubes, no makeup and any other flaw you claim to have. You're a beautiful spirit! God Bless. xoxo

  • You are such a kind person and I'm so glad you got the opportunity to do this for yourself and to make yourself happy. You deserve it! It's obvious that you are a dedicated and hardworking person, whether it comes to makeup or losing all the weight that you did. You're inspiring, and I wish you the best of luck and the greatest of health. Keep smiling! :)

  • You hang on in there girl lol x luv ur vids

  • Thank you for posting your experience. I am scheduled for my tummy tuck and breast reduction on May 19th of this year. I seriously considered doing a you tube video journey but after I see how mean and nasty some people can be I'm having second thoughts. You seem like a sweetheart, dont let nasty people ever bring you down.

  • i just love you:)

  • Hope you are doing well, and you are feeling better. You are such a beautiful person, inside, and out. I am old enough to be your mom, but I love your videos. I wanted to tell you that I had the breast reduction, and lift about 4 yrs ago. Had to laugh about the "cone boobs". They will drop, and you will be so happy with the results I'm sure. Hang in there, and you have many people wishing you well. Keep in touch.

  • I am so happy that you recovery going very will.

  • You always tell us at the end of your videos to stay happy and healthy but now im saying it to you please stay happy AND healthy!

  • You are very sweet and i wish that you would get better very soon!

    LOVE

  • i love your laugh!!

  • Marlena, I am a huge Makeup Geek fan and I'm sure Sephora thanks you :). I too am having surgery (TT, BL & BA) on April 6, 2011. I've been watching youtube videos and was so happy to find yours. I really connected to your words in your first vlog post. I'm terrified but I really want to do it. I had 3 big babies in 4 years. My weight is off but I feel ya on the old lady boobs n tummy. I would love to get your advice on it all (how can I do that?) Much LOVE and admiration

  • @crookedfinger13 If you were a clinician worth your salt you wouldn't jump to such a conclusion without a consultation that is far more in-depth than anything a youtube video can provide or post your assessment in a passive aggressive comment, which is borderline unethical with regards to her privacy. Even if you were right, maybe you should offer help and support instead of uninformed criticism. I feel bad for your "patients."

  • @jennacyde She describes herself as having the body of a 60-year-old. That is so far off the mark that it should be pointed out. (What, do you think she actually does look like she's 60?)

  • im so glad ur healing well! :) u will be in my prayers! i was wondering where did u get your surgery?

  • hi marlena,im glad 2 c ur recovering well..just wondering,if you dont mind...how much did the tummy tuck cost?

  • Marlena I'm sorry so many people choose to be negative instead of just saying something nice or nothing at all. I'm trying to straighten out some jerks here for you :)

  • Why is she so damn cute? No need for surgery tho, she is naturally beautiful....fact.

  • Good for you, Marlena :) I had a breast reduction and lift in 2010 and the recovery is BRUTAL...so I know yours is double difficult. I'm so proud of you and you know what, it's a personal choice and your happiness comes before the opinions of people who don't know you. So good luck with your recovery....it DOES get better and you're going to be SO happy with your results. :)

  • Wow, I really hope you get better. I truly do. just keep holding on, and keep positive :D

  • i hate how people aare like omfg your still alive? yayy!!!! no one fucking dies having a fat removing surgery LOLZ

  • Does it leave any scars?

  • Marlena -- You are looking great!!! Thank you for keeping us updated on your recovery. I'm wishing you a continuing smooth recovery. I am recovering from broken ankle--not severe as what you went through as no surgery required--and my rehab begins next Monday. Take real real good care and go slow~. Love your perky boobs :-D

  • Yr not shallow are you?

  • I'm so happy for you and will continue to pray an awesome recovery! love ya!

  • How much cosmetic surgery have you had total?

  • glad to hear your doing good :) still look beautiful and hope you get better soon! we all love you♥

  • thx 4 uploading this u r really amazing person =)

    ohh and u have the cuttiest laugh everrr <3

  • @sactowncr1minal Hahah people like you

    make me laugh now do us a favor and kill yourself

    & leave marlena alone

  • Lots of love from Spain, Marlena have a quick recovery you're an angel

  • @sactowncr1minal Unemployment is at an all time high because bums like you sit home and troll on the computer instead of getting themselves an education to become desirable to an employer so they can actually find work!

    Marlena WORKED hard for her money hunny!! that's the only reason she was able to afford such a procedure, and granted it was NOT done out of vanity. She lost the weight properly and sensibly over a wide span of time, which left her with a lot of loose skin. Not her fault.

  • @sactowncr1minal she did work out, you asshole. In case you didnt fucking know, when people lose a lot of weight, all the excess skin will sag. Everyone knows the economy is bad right now, so stop fucking acting like you're the only one affected by it. Theres something called EMPATHY. Learn how to feel it. You wouldnt know what she's going through if you or someone you know has been affected by body image issues. Get the fuck out.

  • @sactowncr1minal Look at meeee!! I'm on Youtube watching videos that piss me off and then complaining about it because I can't contribute to society in any useful way!!!

  • @sactowncr1minal actually she says that she DID work out, and that is part of how she lost the weight. Just because she rocks and has an amazing job doesn't mean you should be here all jealous and cranky! She lost NINETY POUNDS before her surgery.

  • @sactowncr1minal Good for you for posting this!!! Marlena looks amazing and shes worked hard for everything she has achieved!!

  • @sactowncr1minal Don't be pissy just because you aren't making money off of youtube and can't find a real job. Half of the people that can't find a job are lazy ass bums that dropped out of high school and have no work ethics or qualifications.

  • I am so glad that you are posting this so people get informed. I also want to do a tummy tuck and a breast lift.  I am a little scared because I don't know what to expect. Thank you for taking the time to let us know how is like

  • Hold on...Quit talkin for a second...Straight up...Where is yo makeup at?

  • Happy recovery Marlena! <3 Glad to hear the surgery was such a success. Here's a question: Do you know if there is such a thing as a skin tuck? I hear a regular tummy tuck involves cutting of the muscle and things....i don't think i need that, there's just a tiny bit of skin that hangs over my jeans with icky stretch marks from my babies that i'd like to be rid of. So i'm wondering if you know anything about a smaller procedure that would fix that. Thanks Marlena!

  • @allysmom01 I'm thinking would get a "mini tummy tuck", but you'd have to ask a surgeon at a consultation. It's like a regular tummy tuck but doesn't extend as wide, and recovery isn't as rough

  • Good luck!!

  • get well soon

  • Opps! Sent my message before it was finished.. Love your work and so wish I lived closer you look like a truly awesome person..I'd love to pick your mind for a day to get some of your makeup tips.. You have skills.. All the best..

  • Your in my Prayers...Speedy recovery Hun...wish you all the best..I love your work, and so m

  • what is praying ? is that what cave people used to do to make fire ?

  • Will I be able to punch it? twice?

  • -.- Why are people being so mean?

    Like really? How mature. If you dont like her dont fxcking watch her videos.

    Trolls really just piss me off. >.> Shes such a pretty & strong women. Why not give her a break & try growing up while your at it ^_^

  • Glad to hear your okay and everything is going well! Hope you have a good and speedy recovery! Feel better soon, your beautiful and always will be no matter what!

  • just wanted to know how do u go about finding a good dr especially when u live in a small city like me where they don't do that here so i wanted to know how to look up doctors and what things to look for to see if they have good references?

  • Hi Marlena!

    I love your videos. You look really great. I think you are so pretty, talented, and sweet. Congrats on all the weight loss. I have a couple of make up questions for you. You said you use Eve Pearl's Salmon concealer and I wanted to know what color? I am fair skinned and I just bought it in medium. I am wondering if that will be too dark? Also, what is your opinion on hooded eyes? Am I limited as to what I can do with them? I read somewhere that I shouldn't use eyeshadow

  • I just couldn't watch this video without leaving comment. I'll be totaly honest, I saw your video accidentally,and I don't have idea what's going around.I see you have some illness, I have arythmya and I understand you. You are so kind,good,beautiful and so sweet. You are very strong and stable person,noone and nothing on the world can't defeat you. You show us how to fight and how to win, how to end the fight with smile on our face.We didn't help you, you are helping us.God bless you our Angel!

  • God bless you recovery!  Its amazing to hear your speak so openly about your faith and knowing the power of prayer. You are an amazing woman and God will continue to bless you in many ways!

  • Good for you! It takes a brave person to post such a personal journey and what a inspiration you are. Losing that amount of weight is such an accomplishment and you deserve to be happy and have an "average body". Thanks so much for doing these videos and being honest about what's going on with you. Can't wait to see the results. I hope you have a good and speedy recovery!

  • why should anyone even care .dont you people have brains?

  • Get well soon sweetie :)

  • Can't wait until you're 100% back :)

    I hope you have your family and friends around to help you out while you're at home and can't move so much.

  • people need to get of her sack!!

    it's her body let her do to her body what she needs to do to feel comfortable with herself !!

  • You're a doll. You look amazing. I'm so happy for you.

  • I understand your tummy tuck but the breast lift??? Thats just not... necessary seriously

  • @lemondrop4545 I worked for a plastic surgeon. When a woman loses this much weight, one of the 1st places women lose weight is in the breasts, so she likely had significant sagging & stretching in that area and needed it removed to make her body more proportioned. Breast augmentation is not simply adding implants, but tightening the skin and raising the nipple to an area that is more appropriate for the high of the breast. .

  • ok

  • OMFG. GOod u are ok.

    But ppl, go do ur thang, dun spend ur life on youtube..

    Have a nice day.

  • @Syatek2020 RUDE.

  • @Syatek2020 seeing how she's not fat anymore? she hasn't been overweight for a long time

  • All you people who are leaving hateful comments need to stop! Marlena is beautiful and she needs everybody's support right now so be nice to her!

  • с таким еблом тока хуи вафлить на перекрестках

  • Тупая блядь

  • ure cute even without makeup.

  • You're so pretty

  • you have beautiful smile :)

  • KILL IT WITH FIRE!!!!!!!

  • Did you only have tummy tuck or you also had liposuction? And when you had tummy tuck, were your abdominal muscles (those which can stretch out) sewed together? And finally, what type of breast lift you had - anchor type, circular type or another type? I'm sorry if I'm sounding too nosy, I'm just really interested in all this. I wish you speedy/painless recovery! :)

  • You are doing amazing! The good comments and well wishes cancel out the negative ones ten times over Marlena.. Keep your chin up! Team Makeup Geek!!

  • You look great and like you are still in good spirits! I had a breast reduction 2 years ago and you just brought back a memory LOL It did take time for the sweeling to go down and look normal again. I was like are they always going to look cone shaped. I was very discouraged, but it takes a few months. Congrats and you are WONDERFUL!
