Ah I have the saggy butt:(



Recommended Posts

You know I'm not really sure what size I'm in. My 16's are really baggy but my size 14's are tight but then my 14's are 3 years old so maybe there's a difference in sizing now? IDK. I'm really frustrated. I have 7 pairs of jeans that almost fit but not quiet. I have 2 that I can get buttoned but I can't bend over in yet.

This will sound weird, but if you have pants that you can get over your butt and just can't button, there is this thing at target or anywhere that has maternity clothes called the belly band. its for pregnant women that can't button their pants. its a strip of elastic cloth that goes over your pants where the button are and gives you a layered look. so no one can see if you can't button your pants. here is a link for the target kind to give you an idea. i use them a lot!

Thank you so much for showing this! I'm at that awkward between sizes. I wear the smaller size because the too big sizes are awful.

But, having pants that are too tight around the mid-section has become so painful. I thought I was going to have to actually go buy bigger pants this weekend :)

I swear by Dress Barns jeans. They fit me well and have both 14 and 14W. Not too expensive either. They had a denim sale last week and bought 4 pair for under $100.

(Side note) The skinny, 12 year old (not really 12) sales girl helped me when the 14W was too big and brought me the regular 14. She said, "See you don't need the 14 WIDE." I gently corrected her and laughed in the dressing room...

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
