I think they are all placed where ever the surgeon decides to on his whim. Mine is exactly where you would place your hand to do CPR. I hope I never need it. Katt

Mine is about 5 inches left of my belly button, but above my waist if that makes sense. I wonder if there is any correlation between flipped-moving ports and original location? Are any doc's gathering info on this?

Mine is about two inches directly above my belly button. Mine's still fairly new, so it occasionally hurts when I bend down for a bit. I think it's the scar tissue that's sore, not exactly the port. I'm curious what makes surgeons decide where to put them.

Mine is 3 inches below my right breast. I can see it buldge a little and it feels like a lump. I just wonder if it will stick out even more after the weight is gone? I say who cares as long as I can get the weight off and live a healthy lifestyle.

Regards to all,

Mine is about 3 inches below my left breast. I have the low profile port so it is not showing as of yet, it may later I don't know. Just been 2 months.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
