Previous Lipo & Now Visceral Abdominal Fat



Recommended Posts

Hi there. I will be having the sleeve in April 2012. I am very excited and appreciative of all I have learned on this forum. Anyone out there ever have liposuction? I had it in 2002 when I was just "overweight." It was great and I don't regret having it. But since then I have steadily gained 50lbs and now have intra-abdominal fat. I assume this is because there was no where else to gain the weight because the "outer" fat in my abdominal and flank areas had been removed.

Does previous liposuction affect the sleeve surgery? And what about excess intra-abdominal fat?

Thanks for any advice/thoughts you can offer. I won't be seeing my surgeon until after the new year.

Good Question....

I am not for sure but this might be a question you can ask Little Miss Diva . I believe she might be able to answer it or know someone that will.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
