TheGh0st's Extended Tummy Tuck w/Lipo
My friend B had a hernia repair along with her tummy tuck.. it saved her some money, since the hernia was covered under insurance as was the hospital and anesthesia..... but the actual tt was not.

Introducing Myself
DR!!!!!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR JOINING THIS FORUM I am a huge fan of the show. I really appreciated the visual on Claudia last week with her port. I know ps is in my future as my stomach is fast deflating.. I've ALWAYS had arm issues, so I would love to get them done first...... My question. Is is normal to get a breast lift and the arms done at the same time? Also, I have large areola's (HUGE) what happens to them when the extra skin is removed and your nipples are replace? I've always hated how big they are, and my breast feeding days are behind me... so is it an issue for them to be removed as excess skin? The more I watch PS shows the more I've had this question.

I'm scared!!! Is lapband weight loss too slow?
1-3 lbs a week AVERAGE is normal provided you WORK YOUR PLAN.. as for motivation....... the clothes that get to big, the face that becomes evident, the way you FEEEEEEEEL is motivation in its purest form. 75 lbs down since APRIL 2007, and I'm not a PERFECT bandster... I'm Tracy....... and I LOVE MY BAND

360 body lift
very interesting! I'll be watching and waiting for your updates! The more I lose the more deflated I am looking and now I have to lift my tummy in order to see "down there" before it was just a big belly potruding out.. now its starting to be flatter and longer! SORRY for the visual.... but I'm guessing YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN

April 2007 Banders - Plateaus
I was kind of like you and finally had a small unfill .3cc's..... I can eat more than soup now, but lettuce and eggs always give me problems... my thought is that lettuce wilts and doesn't break down and eggs well they kind of act like little rocks as they are bouncey and don't break down... I have to chew each bite 20 times... but truthfully I get bored doing that and that is why I eat a lot of ground meat.... or I put my chicken in the crock pot....... I wish I had the willpower to stick to plan with lose restriction, but I don't so finding a happy medium is what I try to do........... GOOD LUCK
