Everyone is different. I know someone who had the bypass started @279lbs and now at 170 and she looks AMAZING! She is bikini ready and as had her surg 5yrs ago..oh did I mention she only walked daily and she was 50yrs old time of surg..her advise to me keep the Protein and Water up! Pilates always worked for me it tones the body real nice. Search web for skin toning and firming soaps cebraonline.com Name of soap VEGAN SHEA BUTTER SOAP WITH MIXED GARDEN HERBS

First of all...congrats on your weight loss, you are doing amazing! I am 6 months out and have the same issues, Hair loss, sagging skin ( that is only on my arms and a little on the butt...lol) You are just where your body needs to be, everyone is different. Keep up the fantastic work!

theres a huge difference between loose skin and flab. loose skin is when u can grip the skin & pull it and it stay very wrinkled when u let go & slowly goes back into place. flab is loose fat that hangs. i have flab on my stomach, arms & inner thighs. i have extra skin on my boobs.

im less than 8months post op & im over 100lbs down. im turning 24 in a few days so age plays a huge difference. also, i read someone say that at 2yrs post op, their skin tightened up a lot. your skin is elastic & needs time to shrivel up nicely.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
