Has anyone had breast reduction done before sleeve surgery? Duento large breast that sags? Mind you no children yet and in my early 30"s advice please I'm in the middle process of getting sleeved. Open to all advice

I would wait until after your weight loss, a lot of times the chest is the first to go so you may want to wait to avoid wanting to do it twice.

I'm in the Philly area, and trust me, a support bra isn't going to keep the sagging from happening as you lose the weight - assuming you have a significant amount of weight to lose. I get periodically fitted at Nordstroms as I am losing weight. They are miracle workers!

My breasts used to be awesome and now they look like I've had five kids. Not a good look. But I am glad I didn't have anything done before surgery. I do intend to have something done about them once I'm done losing weight. But I run into the same problem as you...I haven't had children yet so is it a waste to get them done, have kids, then get saggy ones again?!

I had 36 Gs before surgery and I have 34 Hs after i never lost the boobs. I only buy Freya bras and swimwear. It's costly but the best support ever.

Oh Skyjack, I'm envious! I began at 42H and have ended up a very sad looking 34C. So I am soooo glad I didn't get the reduction I always wanted, there is nothing left as it is!!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
