This may have been covered here before, but I can't find it. Has anyone used the It Works body wraps after surgery? Do you feel they helped? What areas did you use them on? Pics would be great to.

Totally temporary..waste if money...worth it if you want to fit into a special outfit for a night, but otherwise, don't bother.. We researched this a few months back.

I was wondering about the loose skin too, but I don't want to waist money on something that doesn't really work anyway.

Be careful with the perpetration H thing. They were talking about it at work and one of the doctors said not to do it, it can cause some really horrible rashes and bacterial infections.

They do not help with loose skin. They are completely temporary as mentioned about but there is absolutely no magic fix for loose skin other than surgical repair. Darnit, I really wish there was.

So funny - Duck Tape and Spanx is my plan. However - I have a drag queen friend who says he is going to give me some tips on how to pull it all together and look fabulous. I can't wait to hear the tips.

Pass them along please :)

Please share the tips with us, too! Not all of us are lucky enough to learn from a pro. :-)

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
