Thank you! ThAt is so sweet to say!

I am not going to lie... It was painful. I hated that I couldn't wear jeans or a bra for about a month without being in pain. It was more uncomfortable than anything and still 6 months out my incision down my middle will feel stretched if I have salt. The worst part was the drain. They put it right about my "lady area". When I would move the wrong way it would pinch. It was worth it though.

It should! My arms aren't bad and due to me being so young my breasts are actually nice. I wouldn't mind filling them in a bit more but it isn't needed. The lower body lift I am looking into should fix everything but who knows! Fingers crossed! Good luck with your surgery! I hope the recovery is quick and not painful!

My fancy jack lalane juicer uses everything so I never miss out on any of the benefits of the skin or seeds!

No the bulge is actually my leg. The surgery Made them swell a bit but its bad. I lost a lot of weight (160lbs on a tony frame) and need to get my legs, lower back and hips lifted so the lower body lift will hopefully solve it.

I juice!!! My band doesn't like seeds or anything that takes a lot to break down (pineapple and lettuce for example). In the morning I make a juice of carrots, apple, spinach and sometimes something a bit tropical! I will even go so far to add a bit of protein powder for the added benefits!!! I love it! I also make them into Popsicles for those warm summer nights.

That pic I just posted was a week after surgery. You can see the bruising and how swollen I am but you can see what the incisions look like. No vertical unless under my chest and on my hips! Sorry if its a bit gruesome for anyone.

I am cut from under my armpit to the other directly under my breasts. I then have an incision from my right hip down to my left hip and then a line down the middle. They took 6lbs of skin. I'm going back for a lower body lift hopefully soon. This worked for my body. It may not be what another individual needs. It was also $15,000 and its fairly new.

You are all so sweet!!! Thank you for the positive words!!!!

I was 270 when I was banding standing at a tall 5'2 I am now 4 years post op and still that tall 5'2 but only 120lbs!

I had corset trunkplasty in January of 2013. I'm about a month away from being healed. They took all the skin from under my chest down to my pubic line. I will still need some skin off of my back and thighs taken off but I'm pretty happy with the results. I know most get a tummy tuck but after losing 160lbs I needed a bit more help than that surgery called for! I have posted a few to show the difference!
