Does anyone have before and after belly shots? I don't know why I am so concerned with how my belly will look after surgery. I know I have more important things to worry about....RIGHT lol

OK, unless you're related to that stretchy rubber guy on "FantasticFour" the after shots are not going to be pretty.

But that is fixable. But you will be healthy.....an obviously much more important priority, right? ;)

@@trulyamazingtoo some vloggers on youtube strip down and show the loose skin. It's not pretty, but neither is being morbidly obese, at least the skin is easily hidden behind clothes. =)

@@trulyamazingtoo I have this same concern too haha! I've had four kids, two were over 8 pounds, one was 10.7 and the other was 11.3! My stomach is huge, I still look 9 months pregnant and my baby is 6 months old! I carry most my weight there...I'm wondering if it will even go down after surgery!

My Surgeon used adhesive to close the external skin on my belly. I have 5 tiny scars that look like faded lines. Honestly, I've had 5 children, 2 c-sections, cancer and lost over 200 lbs. I'm carrying some battle scars. I have earned them. I'm still beautiful. So are you. If your belly has some scars you will still be beautiful. :-)

Peace

      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.
