hi i had both my surgerys done in the uk on the nhs, which didnt cost me any thing, so im not quite sure what it cost private

Hi Josephine. the incision upwards and above the tummy button is where they took skin away from my front which there for pulls in my sides where i had alot of loose skin, and pulls in my sides giving me my body shape back. Im glad that you are not suffering any pain , as im in a fair bit of pain still at the moment and also on alot of pain killers. The pictures are a little deceiving as i do have alot of swelling and this varies from day to day, im looking forward to getting into smaller clothes but with the swelling im still wearing my old ones. This will all come i time, i also just like u wear a body stocking, and it gives me alot of support, which i feel i really need at the moment. Best wishes Liz xxxxxxxxxx

i lost just under 7 stone which in pounds i think is approx 98 pounds

elisabeth and argon thankyou 4 your kind comments. Chickie thankyou also, i hope my results turn out as good as yours have done when the swelling has gone down, i dont look much different in my clothes at this point, but that will be down to the swelling. Liz xxxx

i had the vetical incision as i had loose skin at the sides this was to pull me and and give me some shape, the op was called a fluer de lys.

thankyou also seppi for your comments Liz xxxxxxxxx

Thanx for your kind comments, im two weeks out but the afters were taken 4 days after my op. thanx Liz xxxxxxx

Hi chica thankyou for your comments. Im two weeks post op now and yes i have to be honest im in a lot of pain still, i feel not o bad as i have plenty of pain killers too keep me going im doing more each day but i get tired very easily. I am in the uk and we work in stones here i was 19st 2 llbs day of my band op now im 13st so i think that 98 pounds ive lost, that took me 18 months on two fills. Im not sure if i can lose any more weight now as i have found a sweet spot now and im very happy with the weight i am now apart from the swelling from the t/t. As for kids yes i have 1 son Ryan hes nearly 7. I hope that answers some of your questions and i wish you luck on your lap band journey !! Liz xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

thanx minty xxxx liz xx
