before & during/after pictures



Recommended Posts

I was looking at the group just for pictures but I wanted to see pictures of people my own age so I thought I would start a thread! My pictures are still before/during because I did just have surgery! :thumbup:

You're doing great! Congrats. I love the idea of a thread for our age range- good idea. I lost my camera with my specifically taken "before pics", so I don't have any proper ones but I'll see what I can find.

Sorry it's taken me so long to get back to you. The picture of me looking crazy, jumping of the boat, is the best before picture I have. I avoided full body shots you see. Then the other two are about 10kgs lighter- half way to goal. Lets hope some other teenagers put some pics up!

katie! ive seen your before and after pics before, but never together like this.... you are incredible!!! congrats on the tummy tuck.... i mean, i man, i hope i don't need one, but im lying to myself because i can already tell that i do. and i act all tough but that surgery truly scares the crap out of me.

p.s. i will totally excuse your vag, thanks for being brave enough to flash all of us complete strangers and be a guinea pig for us, because we really are curious to see how someone our age goes through everything. you are -- seriously -- awesome, but i'm sure you know that.

congrats again!

This Tummy Tuck is completely kicking my ass. I always thought I had a high threshold for pain, & I thought i was tough but shiiiiiit sometimes I think I'm dying. I already know that this is all more than worth it, though. I really did need something done with my tummy, but I didn't want to go all out with arms & thighs. Those people are inspirational. Either way, I'll post my before and after tummy tuck pictures once I get them from my doctor & take some new pictures.

Don't let the pain scare you, Jane. If you think you need it & can afford it... DO IT!

Buuut, I think it may be time for more pain meds haha.

      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.
