Omg yessss I will try anything!!! What wraps are you talking about?

Ok so I follow a couple of ppl on instagram who sell or promote the wraps. I believe they're called" itworks". If you are an ig member it will be easy to find in the tags section under #tummytuck or just Google it

I guess I just said vain because my goal is to eliminate health issues, and live longer. Not to look cute in a bikini, ya know?

Lol I'm sorry I don't know because I want to be healthy but for damn sure I want to look better and feel better about myself. Though I'm not aiming for a bikini, as sexy little one piece wouldn't hurt.

Curvy you are young.....I think you will bounce back...I've seen people twice your age that don't look to bad...don't worry honey you have many years to tone up....take care and good luck

Thanks guys! I'm 21 so I think my age with do me well however my arms are rather large so I'm super concerned about that area. I know my legs will be fine I'm curvy so not to much fat just in the stomach area. I've heard massages help I'm not sure how but I've seen some pretty successful people that's proven that. I'll do whatever it takes and I think that will take me a long way.

No I haven't had the procedure yet however I will be sleeved on the 24th of March! I literally have a couple of things left to do then I will be able to just focus on the date. I haven't picked out a specific weight but I wouldn't want to go under 150 because I'm curvy. I'm 5'7 so I don't want to be too skinny. I'm mixed so I think I'll still have my curves but ill just have to see as I go. You?

150 sounds great. What's left to do? Do you think you're ready for all the stuff that comes with the surgery? I'm slightly afraid of the pain.

Okay so I have to go for a group class to get some info for pre and post op diet and pay the $600 program fee. I think for the most part I'm mentally and physically ready but I don't think that's an experience you can be fully prepared for because of various reasons. The biggest reason is you won't know fully until you've been through it. As far as the pain goes my surgeon has said she will put a bulb with numbing meds in my largest incision. I'm not sure exactly how to explain it to you but everyone said it has helped tremendously and they use less oral pain meds.

I'm just hoping for the best and if push comes to shove I will just have to have to evaluate at that point.

      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.
