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

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
