Question Regarding Lady Parts...



Recommended Posts

This may be somewhat uncomfortable for some people to talk about, but I'm curious. Since a good majority of you have lost a tremendous amount of weight, perhaps you can answer this. What happens, you know, down there? Do you lose weight there, too? Does it stay the same? Does it ever look like something out of a textbook or is it necessary to have PS to make it look that way?

For me, it's necessary to have PS to get back to "textbook." The PS is called a mons lift.

There is co much variety in the looks of "lady parts' though that my impression is that men don't notice too much. For me, I just want it pulled up anyway. I feel very strongly about it.

Julie, can you tell me what exactly they do for the mons lift? I thought it would just be a slight extension of the TT. (and shouldn't when they pull up your belly skin, it lift the mons anyways?)

You didn't have it done yet, right? If not, why not at the time of your TT?

I'm hoping that with a Tummy Tuck or lower body lift, my coochie will look a whole lot nicer. It does when I grab onto my skin and pull up, anyways! My 'mons' is pretty much just an extension of my sagging belly right now.

Thank you both for responding!

JulieNYC: I checked out your threads regarding your PS journey. INCREDIBLE! You look absolutely sensational! When you were overweight did you ever think that your body could look so absolutely perfect?!

I have been voraciously reading up on PS procedures in order to set realistic goals for myself and I have found your insights to be invaluable. I hope that your recovery time is swift and that your next procedures are equally, if not superiorly, successful! I'll be anxiously awaiting for the next installment!

I think if you're got loose skin on your front, then you've got loose skin over your bits too.

But as to whether you're an outie or an innie, lol, that's like your belly button, you're born to be one or the other. There is surgery that can change it I never look at it myself so I dont care. And I dont really plan on showing it to many people, lol.

LMAO! You're so right, Jacqui!

I've never had the pleasure of seeing my body as a pan-ultimate vision of the female form, as I've been a fatty since puberty. Not that I'd go around flashing my Wilhelmina around like some tartlet in Hollywood, but I would like to see my body as the most aesthetically pleasing that it could be, even by means of plastic surgery...'cause I sure as hell don't have the genetics to tighten up the "gunt!" :)

bahahahaha! I was just thinking that very word today! I wonder if I should consult the exercise area of the forum for some "gunt" tightening techniques!

      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.
