Two questions for the ladies in the forum!
I know I will eventually have to have a tummy tuck and probably my breast done. I'm a DDD and have always had big breast. I've already told my husband if I go smaller than a D, he has to buy me some more. I would be lost without them. Sent from my SM-G900V using the BariatricPal App

Baby Step Suggestions?
I did the same thing. Taking that time to prepare yourself. Start your Vitamins and try different Proteins and you'll do great. I haven't had a problem. I'm 3 weeks out and have not wanted any food. That's no cravings or anything. Good luck to you. Sent from my SM-G900V using the BariatricPal App

Anyone kept their procedure a secret?
I tried to keep mine a secret, just because if something happened and I didn't get, I didn't want people asking why. My daughter started asking for prayers so people started finding out. Afterwards I told a few people and I figured the town gossip would do the rest. My husband didn't want me telling anybody. I have no idea why. I'm excited and don't mind people knowing about it.

ITCHING
I think I had a reaction to the iodine. One week after surgery I woke up with my abdomen itching like crazy, I put on lotion and went on with my day. I actually had my first post op appointment that evening. Doc said everything looked good. That night I got worse, the next day my torso was covered in tiny itchy bumps. Two days of benadryl and finally went and got shots. The only areas were where the iodine touched my skin. It's been 3 weeks and I still have a little itching.. Good luck.

Scared I need a buddy lol
My surgery was based on my first visit weigh in. !y dr wanted me to lose weight, I guess to prove that I could do it. I started at 210 on my surgery day I weighed 194. Not a big loss but it helped to prepare my mind and body as to what was coming after surgery.. good luck Sent from my QTAQZ3 using the BariatricPal App
