I am 4 days post op and scrolling through these posts and I have yet to see someone with a shape like mine with a before and after pic. I have a B shaped belly. So my belly button divides the two rolls. I call them my top belly and bottom belly (fupa). I am curious as to how many of them look after the weight loss. I understand all skin is different. Anyone shaped like me mind posting before and afters??

I don't see a lot of tummy pictures on here but I see tons of them on Youtube. Search weight loss, weight loss surgery, before and after, and "skin flicks". You will see lots of different tummies (and arms and legs and backs and butts) both before and after weight loss. Hope this helps.

There's a website that you can search for before and afters by body type. If I could only remember the name. Lol. I'll try and find it. I think I have the type of belly you describe. I'm pre-op though so can't help with before and after pics.

There is actually a ton of before and afters on here if you search before and after i just have yet to see my shape. But thanks! Great idea!

@@JamieLogical Was it you who had posted a website that you could search for before & after by your body type??

Not necessarily before/after, but they are just photos of women that you can search by weight, height, body type, and age so you can get a sense of what you might look like at your goal weight:

I have that exact same body type and I am down 116 pounds from my starting point and STILL have it but less! I hope the belly disappears at some point. I also have quite a bit of fat in my back that I wish would go away.

Keep in mind that this is not an after picture by any means, but the one on the left is April, top right is July, and bottom right is last week. post-285447-14734684258197_thumb.jpg

      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.
