Thanks everyone! I still haven't had any pain. My biggest complaint is that I cant sleep in my bed. I don't sleep good at night anyway and this recliner isn't helping that. I had everything do.e at once and my boobs are no problem. I can lay on my side and they never bother me but I wake up with my hips hurting and sort of stiff. I just want my bed back.

I haven't had the lap band surgery yet, but I will. This is one of my concerns...the excess skin after the surgery. You look great by the way and it's great to know you did not have much pain. I wouldn't mind having the Tummy Tuck but I don't think I'd be able to afford it. I have medicaid and medicare and I am pretty sure it's not covered being that it is a cosmetic procedure. How much is it if you don't mind me asking? Also, what are good places in NYC to have it done? I want to be prepared. Thanks :)

Spoiltmom....any newer pix for us?

Oh and still, no pain:) I had a drain free yummy tuck. That may be why I have less pain and swelling,not sure though.

Wow, you look awesome-all that work and no real pain?? What a blessing. I hope you are able to post more pics soon. Ignore the negative people who commented. Keep up the good work. I am five months out from my LB surgery, have lost 30 pounds, and hoping my skin will rebound enuf to avoid TT. My body doesn't do well with anesthesia so don't want to go there again. Healthywoman

I had my TT done 2 weeks ago. Had a pain pump so that helped a lot. I have not thought the recovery was a breeze. Hard to sleep at night, can't walk around to much. Am hoping the results are worth all of this. No more cosmetic surgery for me. Mine cost $7,000 in upper Midwest.

My PS will take more next month and then give me a copy of his before and afters. I will post them when I get them.

Thanks for all the well wishes guys! I'm back to full activity now. Even jogging again:) I still have some swelling but it should subside in a few more weeks.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
