Ok for those of you have been banded awhile and have lost at least 50lbs+ have you noticed a change in cellulite? I'm hoping that my cellulite in my legs will be less with weight loss, do I have hope?

I'm glad you ask this question, because I would really like to know too! Mine is awful. But I had it when I was thinner as well, so I am guessing I will still have it when I get to goal. I plan on having Lipo to remove it if it is still there.

I don't know. I'm down 92 pounds and I still don't like the way my legs look. :/ that could just be me because I have a bit of baggy skin in my stomach. That might be all it is. The rest of me looks great but I still have 29 pounds to go. Good Question

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but I'd say there's been NO change to the amount of cellulite I have at all with a 100lb weight loss. If anything, its slightly worse.

I was/am pear shaped, and I still carry any weight I have in the backside and upper thighs. My bum is very dimply ugh, and saggy, and I have some on the backs of my thighs, though the worst of it is hidden in a bikini bottom.

There's just nothing you can do about cellulite, Lipo wont get rid of it and often makes it worse, it would have to be a full lower body lift to stretch it all out and even THAT wont get rid of it all. Its just one of those things, most women have it and some worse than others.

Mine was filled out more when I was fatter and not quite as noticeable.

Mine is mostly in my thighs, and I don't expect it all to go away but I would eventually like to be able to wear shorts with some confidence. Hmm...I guess only time will tell. Thanks for the answers ladies!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
