I have a question, I want to exercise but I have an apron of fat still left. Can anyone suggest shorts that will keep my apron from bouncing around. I was thinking spandex or lycra. Has anyone had this problem? Thanks

Oh yes, it's a HUGE problem. In fact, I'm finally having mine removed May 1st.

I have found a high waisted control pantie (like Spanx) helps a lot. It keeps all the jiggling to a minimum. Catherines also makes their own line of control wear and they're just as effective as Spanx.< /p>

I've had problems with it for years before I had band surgery. It did shrink a lot as I lost weight (fat) but now I have a TON of excess skin draping off me. It's so bad that when I had my gallbladder out 3 weeks (my band surgeon did that surgery too) my doc asked as I'm getting wheeled into the operating room "In a couple weeks we're getting rid of this skin!!" Sure enough, when I went in yesterday for follow up appointment, he put me on the books for May 1.

Is this a difficult/painful operation?

I won't lie, I'm really scared lol. Partially because mine isn't just a Tummy Tuck it's also hernia repairs (multiple big ones) and repairing my abdominal wall. Most people I've spoke to who've had the tummy tuck definitely need time to recover but they all say it's worth it.
