Doesn't look like you have any loose skin

- Kaylee Ann ~ Surgiversary: 6/11/12

Unfortunately I do have loose skin. I also have a lot of stretch marks because I use to weigh over 420 pounds in the past. I've always worn compression tank tops even when I was heavy to keep things tucked in, so I'm not sure if that is what has helped my skin to not sag that bad. I was told by my doctor that I will need to remove the excess skin because it will not go back. Having this role of skin still makes me feel big. I do work out 2 to 3 times a week and I do mostly cardio swimming cycling kick box class to try to Tone my body. But I soon plan to start lifting weights so hopefully I can build some muscle in my arms To fill in my saggy skin in my arms and also build muscle on my chest.

      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.
