For those of you who had a big butt before surgery...did all of your butt go away? That is the one thing I do like about my body, I was blessed with a nice butt. LOL I wouldn't mind losing a little of it, but I don't want it all to go away. :D

I know it's a silly question, but one I keep thinking about...lol

So much so that it hurts to sit now. My Excess skin makes it feel very weird and uncomfortable when I sit.

I see a skin reduction surgery in my future

Do either of you workout? I workout twice a day, weightlifting. And do a million squats. I have for the last 3 years, I can't do cardio because I was born with a heart defect. And every time they have to "fix" my heart I gain weight because I am in bed for months. So after I have lost over 100 naturally and then gained 40 back, and just can't get it off again my cardio's think it's the right time for this surgery. I have been wanting it for years, and they kept saying no.

Has anyone worked out and do you think that helps with excess skin and keeping the butt plump and high?

My butt was the first to go and I'm quite happy with the results so far.

I'm having a weird sort of opposite change happening in my body shape. I always had basically no butt, but suddenly when i stand straight and look at myself sideways in the mirror, I have much more of a curve to my back and *gasp* an actual ass! I don't really understand the weird way my body is redistributing but I'm not going to question it. XD I do, however, lament the loss of my once-ample breasts. I still have a good amount of breast tissue/fat but the extra skin has made them pretty droopy. Still, again.. not complaining! :)

My butt is significantly smaller. The biggest change I notice is when I'm sitting down for anything over 20 mins it just hurts to sit. It's all boney! I had to buy more throw pillows to make a substitute butt! ????

My ass was the first thing to volunteer as tribute. I didn't have a big butt before but at least I had something. Now I look like an ironing board from the back.

But it's all good because I am no longer morbidly obese. I am just going to buy those underwear with the butt built in and go on with my life lol

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      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.
