I haven't had surgery yet, in fact I"m looking at October. But this question is on my mind.

To those women who have a B belly. You know, those Bellies that are double and look likes a B. Does it go away with the weight or do you always have a B belly ?

Did it go away during the weight loss or when you were closer to finishing your weight loss?

Many pregnant women get the B belly, but I've had the B belly almost all my life. I'd love to get the D belly or normal stomach :)

::laughing:: I"m sure some of you are just shaking your head and have no idea what I"m talking about.

Thanks !!!

Awaiting an answer with bated breath - I don't just have a "B", I have a couple of mountain ranges.

OTOH, the one on top is the only thing separating my knockers from my knees, so perhaps there's some benefit to keeping it? :D

My roll over the waste left (I never had it) up to the last 2 years, my done lap (dunlap) on the lower stomach above the pubic area is just squishier and less full of fat. I have had the lower dunlap since after my daughter was born. About 5 years ago I had lost about 92 pds, the lower dunlap and all the thigh skin did not go away. Since I have a less chance of regaining weight (post sleeve) when I reach my goal weight I will probably be looking at surgery for belly and thighs. Of course I am almost 50 everyone's skin especially younger skin snaps back differently

Jordan - Thank You !! You know. I think if you had that dunlap your whole entire life, you might have to have surgery to get rid of it. It will be interesting to see ! Congrats on the 45lbs !!!

      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.
