My insurance covered it. All I had to pay was my co-pay! It was deemed a necessity by my insurance company because of the risk of rashes & infections that floppy skin would have caused! my superpower is......

my insurance was going to pay for it but it is not anymore. What did you have to do to prove it.

So, TMI, but can you wear normal panties and not have your gut hanging out the leg holes???? I mean, really, I don't care so much if it's totally flat, I'm tired of having to stuff it in my clothes to keep it from flapping in the wind :/ HW 312, pre-op (RNY) 255, current weight 198

Yup. Regular panties and NO tucking my gut here there and everywhere!

You can tuck it in? I'm the poster child for muffin top! lol

I have a great plastic surgeon, only problem is I am moving out of state does anyone know of a good actually the best surgeon in the Tampa area for plastics? I need the works. Lol

I haven't started looking yet, but if you find a good one let me know as I am in the Tampa area. I'm still too soon out of surgery, but I can already tell I'm going to at least want my arms done!

Anyone know of a good plastic surgeon in the MD,VA area who is familiar with weight loss surgery? I had a consult with who I thought was a good one and I started asking questions about changing my port to low profile or change the location and I felt a little dismissed with my questions.

What part are you from? Are you in Delmarva?

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
