I have a few small-ish ones and my concern is that they'll be really noticeable after I lose the weight since they are in my abdomen just under my ribs.

Does anyone have any experience with lypomas (fatty tissue deposits) after you've lost the weight?

I almost wish I could ask my surgeon to just take the suckers out during my banding but I dunno.

My friend had many many large ones surgically removed. It would be worth asking your surgeon about. Why not remove them while they are poking around in there anyway. It's my understanding that they will grow and become painful when they are against bone.
