Position of the port
slimmy120 replied to slimmy120's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Thank you about info re the low profile port, but does that basically mean having the whole operation done again to swap it? -
I have dropped 4 dress sizes since sep 2007, have got into heaps of my old clothes but want to splurg on something new, but hey i know will not wear for that long, so splurg at the op shop i go, and some of those clothes are beautiful and no one will know. Give your old clothes away - the big ones that is because if your like me you will never let yourself get fat again.:shades_smile:

My arms are looking terrible, have been reading on liposculpure, liposuction, and the cutting of the arm fat. Anyone had any of these done, i have been doing weights without any help. My doctor says drink lots of Water this helps with elacsticity of skin, and weight till the skin forms with the body. Anyone have opionions on what has happened with their arms and what have they done?:shades_smile:

Checked out the photos,you have done really well so how much weight lost over what periods of time? what are you having done. Noticed i have bad batwing arms at the moment.
