Can't wait to wear a bathing suit !!!

You look Great!!..... looking at your pics i would have never guessed you weighed 245 at one time. My TT was the best thing ever..... I'm able to wear underwear and they don't role down anymore.... i have a new love with VS. Although i can't wear the bras... i now have a draw full of sexy thongs....yes.. and i love the way it makes me feel.

You incision looks great.... keep it moisturized I had asked my PS about the silicone Patches... he said they don't do anything a good moisturizer can do.... My scar looks great... can't see it unless i remove my panties... mine does not go straight across... it dips down into my pubic area... which is what i wanted. Hip to hip.

does yours go all the way around?

you are welcome to look at my gallery at my pics. I didnt NEED to get it done for any reason other than I couldnt stand looking at the skin.... I was a size 8 before the tt and am still a size 8.

However with my Tummy Tuck, I've noticed my butt needs some thing .. Help????? Looks so flat ... Omg scary flat ... Any ideas !!!

Just like my two friends here.... no i didn't NEED the TT. I was a size 6-8 going in and still a 6-8. But, I hated the apron that hung down. I felt I didn't bust my Butt losing this weight, going to the gym most everyday to still not feel confident with the "total outcome". But after 2 csections, gallbladder, hysterectomy and the LB.... my stomach looked like hell (at least i thought so). No amount of exercising was going to make it go away. So, Feb 15, 2012 i did it and i am sooooooo happy with the outcome. I would do it again tomorrow.

My upclose was at two months and the other was at six months. Sorry if it grosses you all out...

      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.
