How much does the average tummy tuck cost?

Hello all. I have a question. I have had weird feelings in my stomache for the past week. Then it moved to around where my band is placed. Now when ever I eat for a while after I feel discomfort around where my port is. When I take a deep breath I feel a weird feeling shoot up around my port. I called the Dr. To order a upper GI x-ray but he's not in until Tues. Has anyone had anything like this happen? thanks

thanks everyone for your replys!! I am gonna keep it, now I just gotta find time to build it, or find someone to build it!

if I remember it's 250, but not sure I will look

I purchased a ab lounge and I was wondering if anyone has tried it. I don't want to put it together unless it works! thanks:help:

ok I have lost 75lbs and it really sucks when you've lost that much weight and you're still fat. My question is when will my bags on my inner thighs, my spare tire, and my back fat go away?? I am 5'5" and 215, anyone start around the same as me know that answer to this. I know every person is different, but I want them gone!!! I go to curves 3-4 times a week and follow the weight watchers diet.

I think it's bumping the thread back to the first page by replying to it.

it reads You may deduct only the amount by which your total medical care expenses for the year exceed 7.5% of your adjusted gross income So, does this mean if I make 30,000 I can deduct anything over 2,250?? I didn't see anything about claiming up to $10,000. I know i've spent more then that.

I was wondering this also....anyone know???

Haven't been on in a while!! I have not lost anymore weight. Tomorrow is a new week and I want to start doing things right. I lost 30 lbs. and haven't lost anymore in months. I just had my third fill and I am at 1.9 in a 4cc band. What I want to know is what does a good bandster eat on a normal day? Breakfast ideas? Or any ideas. And also how often does everyone exercise?? I want to make this work. I went into alot of debt for this and I have not really followed anything, but tomorrow is a new day. Thanks for any input from anyone.

well, I was wondering...everything I eat will either go down and I can eat alot of it, or it will get stuck and take along time to go down. ANd when it takes awhile to go down I will end up getting a headache and my ears will start to hurt. I'm asking because I don't know what "full" feels like anymore. I can either eat endless amounts of somethings and be hungry 1 hour later, or eat something that gets stuck and can't eat much and be hungry right after.

Ok, I've had 2 fills, the last one 2 months ago. I do feel restricion, but it's like this. I can eat 2 whole peices of pizza. Pre-op I would of probably ad 4 or 5. But after my last fill I would of HAD to PB it up if I had pizza. Now I feel that feeling, and then a few seconds later, I feel it slide down and I can eat more. I am filled at 1.6 in a 4cc band. So I think maybe I need a fill???

I just went to fitday.com and entered everything I have ate today. I had 2459 cal., 102 fat, and 301 carbs. I don't know what to do with myself. I feel like a failure. How am I going to get myslef to stop eating. DO I love food more then I want to loose weight? I never realized how addicted I am. I spent all this money for what? 25 lbs. in the past 5.5 months. I'm thinking I should have gotten the bypass, then I wouldn't have been able to eat these things. Did anyone have this problem? if so how did you stop? Maybe I need to talk to someone?

When I was reseaching the lap band surgery I found her web site, maybe thats where you saw her.
