Aloe Vera is good for healing skin from things like sunburns. Vit E oil or cream helps with the elasticity of the skin

I have always used 100 % Aloe Vera Gel intsead of lotion, even on my face. It is a bit sticky until it dries but it makes my skin very soft and healthy. I also use it around and on my incision scars and it has helped with healing and is very soothing. Great Stuff!

"Ocean Potion" makes a great 100 % aloe gel, Walmart used to carry it, but it is hard to find there anymore. I did find it at Amazon and order it there now. It is the best stuff I love it!

Good morning Kathie. Has it worked for you? I have a lot of loose skin now and I haven't even had the surgery. Thank you.

      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.
