For people who have a apron



Recommended Posts

Hi I am 5ft1 inches tall and now weigh 209 from 255 and this month on the 12th will make my 2 months post op (and I thought I was going to be a slow loser) well anyway I have a apron (fat hanging below private area) and because of it I dont look like I lost almost 50 pounds for those of you that have or had a apron when did you really start to notice a difference and did you wait till goal to have it removed?

We are the same height and started at about the same weight. Give it some more time and some of that will "pull" up. You are still a newborn at 2 months. Stretching and toning exercises help!

I'm about 40 pounds from goal at 5'7, my apron pulls up & in some but it's still pretty noticeable. I consulted with plastics at 10 months post op but due to being a full time student can't have it removed until I'm 1 year & 1 week from sleeve date. I'm having a corset trunkplasty on May 28th. But they would have done it at 10 months. It depends on your surgeon & plastic surgeon.

I just learned something. Didnt know what an apron was lol I thought it was something grandma used to wear when cooking and doing dishes. No apron and no skin blocking my private area. Whew! That would be uncomfortable Im guessing. Thanks for the education.

      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.

      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.
