I thought this was weird I didn't ask how they got that huge piece of me out. I dont think i want that detail. all 5 of my incisions were real small but the slightly bigger one was near the navel. Well crap i just googled how big the stomach piece is when removed and Holy F***K now i am equal parts disgusted and amazed. I guess it helped that it was empty and in the video they had filled it. but just yuck lol Edited March 16, 2018 by allwet 3 logicwand, FluffyChix and Mattymatt reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sonyawon 135 Posted March 17, 2018 I just watch the video on inflating the stomach that was neat and while they said a whole pizza could have been ate and shoved in that stomach it's amazing to see the stomachSent from my LGL84VL using BariatricPal mobile app Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JLT281 13 Posted March 17, 2018 That's what my doctor did. I didn't even know I had an incision there until my 7 day follow up and I said I felt a scab (it was the incision glue) in my navel. They said that is where my stomach was removed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sonyawon 135 Posted March 17, 2018 Well it's probably a good thing for most of us we can't see our belly buttons so we don't know it looks like a cat's ass LmaoSent from my LGL84VL using BariatricPal mobile app 1 1 charismatic and BuzzVSG reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
frust8 963 Posted March 17, 2018 You are not the first person I have heard of having that, some surgeons even boast that's a better way to do that. Makes my navel kinda itch thinking about it! How about it folks?Sent from my VS880PP using BariatricPal mobile app Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BuzzVSG 252 Posted March 17, 2018 I just re-read the pro-surgical list of things to do, and of them is too "thoroughly clean out your belly button". Interesting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
