My excess skin bothers me i have loose skin on my tummy, boobs & arms, i am meetimg a plastic surgeonon 25th sept about initially having a tummy tuck done. Im excited & a little nervous about this. All should go well hope fully.

YES ITS NORMAL IT WILL SETTLE DOWN IN A FEW DAYS, DONT WORRY.

I HAD MINE DONE IN ENGLAND.

wow well done to you both congrats xxx

MY NEW FOUND PLEASURE NOW IS CLOTHES SHOPPING, ITS GREAT FUN TO BE ABLE TO WALK IN AND JUST PICK UP SOME THING NICE AND IT FITS, MONEY SPENT ON FAST FOOD IS BETTER SAVED UP TO BUY A BRAND NEW OUT FIT ! THE OUT FIT FEELS BETTER THAN THE JUNK FOOD EVER TASTED, AND YOU GET TO KEEP THE OUT FIT. THATS WHAT I DO !!!!!!!!

STEAK IS A NO NO FOR ME AS IT WONT GO THROUGH MY BAND. I CAN DRINK AS MUCH FLUID AS I WANT ASLONG AS IT ISNT DURING EATING OR AFTER HAVING A MEAL.

The band is alot safer procedure, golf balling and pbing are just some of the side effects from the lap band but are not life threatning, the bypass is alot more complicated with long term effects if it goes wrong. at least the band is reversable a bypass is NOT. The band is the safest option to choose and thats why i chose it.

wow you look gr8 your scar seems to be healing well, not long now till i meet my plastic surgeon, well done x

Good luck Cindy xxxx

Why not prepare a healthy lunch and take that to work with you, its going to be home made better for you and substantially less calories. Do you live far from work maybe you could try walkng there, walking is a very good form of exercise. Dont give up you will start to lose again. good luck xx

:update: I NOW HAVE A DATE TO MEET MY PLASTIC SURGEON ON 25TH SEPT, EXCITED BUT NERVOUS AT THE PROSPECT OF HAVING A TUMMY TUCK.

WHEN U GET GOOD RESTRICTION RICE WONT GO DOWN IT BLOCKS UP JUST LIKE A PLUG HOLE. RICE IS A BIG NO NO FOR ME. ENJOY IT WHILE IT LASTS.

when i want to eat out i have to plan ahead and see what is on the menu firstas it is embarrasing when u have to run off to be sick. i only eat out now if it is a necessity to.

cya heather best of luck and best wishes too xxxxxxx
