Saggy Saggy Butt And Stomach



Recommended Posts

I am still in pre-op mode but I wanted to know how many people have problems with saggy skin? If you loose a significant amount of weight will you have the saggy skin? I keep hearing this .... "what are you goin to do after you loose weight?... get cosmetic surgery?" Any insight?

It depends on your age and amount of weight loss. Like Carolinagirl I will take the saggy skin over the weight anyday. Plus I've started the "Amanda Tummy Tuck Fund", I except cash, checks, visa, mc.....hehehe

I am saggy. MY belly button frowns....my Upper legs, butt, boobs and arms are wrinkled....I am working on trying to see if exercise will help but i have been walking 2 miles a day for almost 2 years and it hasnt so far. But thin and saggy is better than fat and fluffy.

I worry about this too! I've already talked to my surgeon about possible abdominoplasty next year. Right now the only thing I've noticed is my flabby arms but I am going to the gym 5 days a week, so I hope that helps. I'm also losing my butt and boobs but who cares, I'd rather be thin and healthy! :D

      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.
