Hey Ladies,

I am pre op at this time, but I was wondering about weight loss and "down there." I know this might be a weird topic, but I dont know who else to talk to!! I am assuming that I will be losing weight in all places, but I want to eventually feel comfortable about being in a bathing suit (without a skirt) or tight pants....Have you guys experienced a decrease in that area? I really dont want to have cosmetic surgery down there....

Sorry about the weirdness!

I'm not entirely sure what you're talking about. You lose weight pretty evenly throughout your body, depending on your body type. Can you be a little more specific?

lol its natural to feel that way, dont be embarrassed. I haven't noticed any changes down there, but Ive had 2 kids so i might not be the best person to give that type of advice haha but before and after surgery i have not noticed any difference and neither has my husband sorry tmi. I think if someone can have kids and it shrink back to "normal" im sure that with weight loss over time it will be ok.

I understand and yes wherever you gain weight you will lose weight. I lost 85 lbs seven years ago and I did lose there and everywhere . Some people have more fat there than others. Even when I'm thinner I have more fat than some women there. Embrace your shape. It will change a lot I'm sure.

You can always call the nurse on the team if your doctor is a male and discus it with her to,

I'm a little under 100 lb loss. And my area was anlittle chubby in the front. I have noticed that it is not as chubby. I can totally see the edge with out even looking, and it doesn't look bad, there is no hanging skin or anything like that. So yes my vajayjay so to speak is no longer chunky. So yes that's one more thing you can look forward to :)

Thanks for posting this question! That is one of the many things I look forward to see shrink. I never even noticed it till I saw a girl on tv get surgery to make it smaller and then I was like wait what... Is mine big? Ha ha

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

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

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
