I need a grandmother makeover....lol. I went to my dr yesterday and we discussed some medical assistance tightening up the tummy, thighs and giving the girls a lift.... My dr works with a local plastic surgeon and he gave me his card.... I haven't explored this at all other than online so I may go for a consult. It's a big step and seems superficial to me when I analyze it. But my dr said thats bs... Yep he really used that word. Lol. He said I have worked hard to get to where I am and he said there is nothing wrong with considering a little nip and tuck... So I may go and check it out...

Good luck to you!

Binders for about 6 weeks, and trust me they help. My doc said it was ok to take an hour or so break from them once in a while. Try Spanx/Assets instead, I found I tolerated them better, much smoother surface!

      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.
