Private Fat loss

Kegels are SO important.

My bladder prolapsed last year.

If I had done more kegels through the years, I might have avoided this. Now all I can do is do em and try and strengthen my pelvic floor so that the bladder will not drop lower and it might even go back up a bit

I know this an old post but.....my mom had lapband and she warned me that the fat my vajayjay has accumulated will not go away! I've decided as I lose weight to use creams to make me sweat in target areas. Areas like my tummy, arms, back fat, thighs, chin, and vajayjay! It might only make a little bit of a difference but the creams make me sweat 3x as much so I'm hoping it helps. Good luck ladies and I am newly banded and would love a banded buddy!!!!!!

It doesn't work that way. You can't lose fat where you choose to lose it. Losing fat means that it's lost all over. Some spots may be more reluctant, so the fat will melt at a slower rate. Don't waste your money or time with creams that make promises. At best, you'll walk into an old wives' tale. At worst, you'll be a sucker for fraud. Beside that, who wants a sweaty crotch?

Women who discuss this all report sagging "down there." If your mother had a different experience, it may be that she didn't lose as much weight as others.

@ "wlsresources/clothingexch" it's a cream I use when working out. You're right it may do absolutely nothing but it may sweat off an inch or two. And I definitely shower after workouts so no sweaty crotch for the day. My mom did not experience sagging, just what she feels is literally a fat public area. They actually have pubic liposuction which will get rid of it. JS

Yes, you did say "cream' earlier. I repeat, it doesn't work that way, but if you really are fond of the idea, have at it. I've done my work.

I think we are getting a little confused about which part of the female anatomy she's discussing. My comment was strictly about the fatty area called the mons. I was not aware that the labias minora and majora carried weight?? I'll have to ask if my husband if he noticed they've shrunk??

I definitely have fat on my labia majora. They are quite plump. I'm hoping to lose some weight down their so my pants fit better. Just say no to camel toe!

        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!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
