Sleeved on 5/3/17 about to hit week 7.

Went home from surgery at 230lbs and now I'm down to 205lbs.

My stomach is my only problem area that needs to go. Anyone else have this issue and have any successful workout routines to rid of it??

Hon, you don't have to much of abelly. I on the other hand is pretty bad. I had a Panni done Sept of 2016 and my PS removed 10plus#'s. But I now need Lipo on my upper stomach. I hate it and wasn't pleased from the beginning. My PS kept saying it was swelling. Finally at my last visit he told me that I needed LIPO done. And then told me he would give me a good deal. If I wanted to have the Lipo and a breast lift he would only charge me $6,000. He made so many promises before my surgery I felt ike he was drumming up further work. But I can say this, I have heard so many people plus a Surgeon all said that the skin will not shrink with the exercise. It has to be removed. You can proablly get some muscle built under the skin but once the skin is stretched it will not go back. Some have more than others. I would research before having any skin removal. You see if you are going tomhave any procedure be sure you have a Tummy Tuck and muscle repair. I only wish I would have known how much I had left because my insureance paid 100% for my skin removal and I wish I would have had a tummy tuck with muscle repair and paid the difference. Sorry for the long post. BTW you look awesome!!

My daughters do an awesome core work out but it doesn't deal with weights it is strictly like doing the ropes they also do planks they also do steam engines look up thoseCore exercises that sprinters and runners do and when you do core exercises it will transform your Stomach area and increase your Protein and will be looking at a six pack very soon

That's awesome! Do you know if they would have any specific workout routine suggestions?? Or if there is a workout premade that they use and how often to do it??

      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.
