Last week, I was able to fit both of my kids plus myself in a pair on my old pants. I was shocked, they were excited for me.

Congrats all! After 12 years and 167 lbs since my surgery, i finally had my abdominalplasty (tummy tuck) done on Monday.... cant believe the difference, amazing. Even though still swollen and drains still in, i cant believe my waist size now. To answer your questions, all went well and yes it was and is more painful than the original bypass! Ouch!

Hello can I see your belly after your drain & swollen goes down? Much much did you pay? Are you having any other surgeries? I want boob lift & Tummy Tuck, but hubby is only alouding me to have tummy tuck. I'm trying to convience him to let me get both,but this is in about 2 years when I reach my goal & that's when my surgeon is letting me have more surgery.

Woooowwww! 104 lbs in 7 months! :). Impressive. Sorry to hear about your plateau but if you are patient I am sure you will prevail. Congratulations on your substantial weight loss.

      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.
