I'm dying to know if anyone has ever just got lucky and their skin just bounced back?!?!? I know wishful thinking *sigh* does age have anything to do with it or is it just pretty much be fat or skinny and saggy? No fair!

I think if your young your good to go and shouldn't have a problem.

I'm older so my skin doesn't have a lot of collagen. It sure makes me feel older than old :(

I've seen lots and lots of gorgeous after photos of people looking great so its not everyone.

I'm sorry :( I bet you are beautiful! Well I'm only 22 so I'm hoping I get super lucky after surgery. I've been using gobs and gobs of cocoa butter lotion cos I read it's suppose to help. Again wishful thinking :)

*Blushing* Thank you! I don't feel very beautiful. I'm so nervous that I'll fail, I've failed at everything else. But you yourself losing 88 pounds is a huge inspiration to me so thank you!!! I am blessed by your accomplishment.

It's too early now for you to do those exercises but after 6 to 8 weeks post op your physician should clear you for exercise.

Right now walking is the best thing. :)

I've lost 40 so far and feel like a empty bag. So I wear Spanx everyday. My neck is not bad but I'm going to get a neck fat toning wrap next Sunday. Maybe it will work maybe not.

      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.
