You will probably lose volume in that area (and all over) after WLS. That does unfortunately seem to always translate to some degree of loose skin. However a mons lift/reduction during plastics can fix it so don’t worry about it too much.

Proceed with caution on Dating sites. I think that people will test many boundaries/limits because there are very few real world repercussions for dishonesty. Also, looks seem to matter the most on apps that are basically 5 second interviews. That being said I met my BF on a dating site (post WLS & pre plastics) Good luck! ❤️

I light candles when cooking fish. No odors after. I also like crispy fish skin if I scale it properly and on whole fish (head and all) -

Cheese and toppings like the others said and If you have not had any bread products yet, don’t try it for the first time outside of your home (But go with your nutritionists recommendations) -
I bought this shirt 3yrs ago when I first reached goal, but this is the first time I’m wearing it. Also I have new braided sandals after salivating of similar ones that a close friend of mine recently bought.

Considering revision
GreenTealael replied to Revisionist's topic in Revision Weight Loss Surgery Forums (NEW!)
For me life is basically the same with RNY except there are more foods that will make me dump than with VSG. Immediately after surgery I had to deal with learning new bathroom habits (I had to urinate at the drop of a dime for months) but it has gone back to normal now that I’m almost 2yrs post op. -

Considering revision
GreenTealael replied to Revisionist's topic in Revision Weight Loss Surgery Forums (NEW!)
Hernias can be repaired alongside a revision (or separate). It’s up to the surgeon if they believe it’s worth repairing at the same time as it may prolong the surgical time. IMHO choose a surgeon that has done plenty of complex cases with great outcomes. I’ve gone from sleeve to bypass albeit for GERD. Outcomes can vary greatly but discussing optimal roux limb length for the best weightloss possible with your surgeon may help. It’s entirely possible to maintain or even gain after revision to RNY. Some revision patients also experience a loss of VSG restriction because the pyloric sphincter is bypassed. Food might feel like it goes right through you if you are used to the strong restriction of VSG. Another option to inquire about is a revision to SIPS or Duodenal Switch especially if you don’t have GERD and have a significant amount to lose. Good Luck! -

Tofu Korma w/ rice and spinach (this is my BFs plate, I don’t eat rice) I found the sauce at Aldi and it’s good but not spicy enough for me
