I had the surgery from one hip to the other in the front. I do not know if he did Lipo as I did not know to ask him. He is a good surgeon, but is not very talkative or friendly. I am rather quiet and do not like to puch myself upon people of this nature. I lost 115 pounds and now weigh 174. I wish to loose more. Thank you and be well.

Not sure if I need that or not. I asked him the other day what exactly he thought I needed in addition to the Tummy Tuck and he said some Lipo on my chin. Now this gets me wondering.

i think a lot of PS's throw it in... i agree, without it, you may look 'unfinished'... wouldnt hurt to ask.

Tell 'em that's the new style.....belly buttons with beards!!!!

Sorry! Guess there was an advantage to all that hair loss besides not having to shave my legs anymore!!

I thought about this quote when my doc was talking about this during the consult. She does laser hair removal as part of the procedure at the pre-op so that there is no hair near the incision. I was thinking, Phew...No beard for me! Thanks for the laugh.

      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.
