  1. Hi Friends, New here…I am wondering if anyone has had experience with having any laparoscopic surgeries after getting a tummy tuck. I had an abdominoplasty in 2013 after having a child and losing weight and having a lot of extra skin. Now almost 10 years later I am looking into having a gastric sleeve done. Looking for anyone with experience. Was it harder for the surgeon due to scar tissue or things moved around? Thanks in advance.

    I don't think that we can attribute it 100% to other people. If we think about it, the way we felt about ourselves at a higher weight compared to a lower one. The way we carried ourselves and the body language we showed. Do you think it was always welcoming? Did I look like the girl who wanted to be talked to? Probably not. I was depressed, and not confident and my self-image in my head was totally not the same as it was when I was smaller. I know for a fact that shows and can be off-putting to some. In no way does that excuse people from being arseholes, disrespectful or rude. But I always think back to a friend who said when you don't want to be bothered at work "walk fast and look worried." LOL. If that can keep people at bay, I am sure that my depressed, overthinking look will keep people away.
