    I am sorry to say I had great boobs prior to surgery and now they are deflated and falling like the rest of me. It is one of the cosmetic procedures I will treat myself to once I lose and stabilize.
    I also now have a completely flat rear end which by the way makes my tail bone hurt like heck!

    @@capricec if your extra large on top because of weight gain, yeah your gonna deflate a bit. If your breast tissue is your breast tissue then not so much.
    I have also gone from a 42DD to a 38DD but the breast tissue is pretty much the same, not much of a deflate in them other than that paunch that I had above them at the clavicle line. I can now see my collar bone
    One really good tip that I was given as I started my pre-op, post op and even today I still put this into practice. Support!!! Get it and use it. If you are at the gym you want a really good supportive sports bra to hold those babies in place. The more they hang the more you rip the muscle and Fiber that keep them up and they will sag.
    So when I am at the gym I make sure to have a great sports bra on, and when I am home working around the house I will have a good supportive bra, sports or other wise on. This was a tip from my breast specialist, even before I started considering WLS, just for breast health in general.

    I agree! Dannon Light & Fit is my favorite Greek yogurt! Especially the strawberry cheesecake You can even taste the graham cracker crust. The toasted coconut and vanilla is equally as delicious.

Once upon a time I could use my weight when playing around with him. ... not anymore. ..I'm going to have to really do some major strength training!

    caligul reacted to dhrguru in Is your 'hunger feeling' different post op?   
    So I'm over 3 months post op and I'm wondering if my hunger is starting to return. I'm wondering because, with all the dang gurgling, I can't tell if this is hunger's "new sound" after surgery or if it's just general gurgling that comes with bypass. IE- this morning after my run I noticed it.
    I drank some Water, and it calmed a bit, but it was also time to eat Breakfast. Can't tell if it's coincidence or hunger??
    So was you hunger sound the 'same' once it returned, or did it take on a sound/feel??

    I had VS surgery almost one year ago on Aug 4, 2014. It's been quite a ride and I've fallen off the wagon more times than I'd like to admit, but I wouldn't go back for anything! I'm 5'8" and weighed 265 at my highest. Today I weigh 178. I still have 10-15lbs to go-- by far the hardest pounds to lose! Here are my before/after pics.

    Hi
    I eat Dannon 80 cal Light and Fit. It has fructose and sucrolose. I don't like them as much as Chobani but I'll eat it and keep Chobani as a treat.
    My fav Dannon is strawberry Cheesecake.
