shaved from ankles to armpits!



Recommended Posts

So to summarise this thread - it's good to shave your armpits because thats where you'll probably find your boobs.

Omg!!!! Thats just funny!!!!

Tape wasn't used on my boobies, mine are rather large so to put your mind at ease not all surgeons use tape, maybe its due to them being able to be swung over the shoulders without the use of tape, or tied neatly in a bow. ;-) x

So, they used straps & bungee cords?

With the elasticity on these badboys they may have been bungeeing while I was under using them as a rope ;-) wondered why they felt stretched lol x

Pammycakes, now the real question is.. Did you wake up in the same gown you went into surgery with?

I had that realization about 6 weeks postop and got so disgusted. I know I was sprawled out on that table butt ass naked. I got tiny girls so I'm sure there was no taping going on for me lol.

Hope surgery went well!

Oh MMM gee!! I'm literally cracking up. Then I unbuckled my seat belt & pulled up my shirt (probably flashed a semi truck driver!). Yup. My scars are right under my boobs. So yeah.......they taped my girls. Bwahahahaha. Unless them falling into my arm pits when I'm flat qualifies as "out of the way"!

Surgery check in time is 630am tomorrow' date=' I'm packed, showered, shaved (story I read here about showing up to surgery with hairy legs n pits really stuck in my mind), anti nausea patch in place, biggest looser picture taken aka:sports bra & bike shorts, & bags packed. Not nervous anymore, now my focus is on being all layed out on the table in front of strangers with my belly all exposed. No one has seen my arms since the mid 90's let alone my belly!!! Knock me out and get this done!!!![/quote']

Did your doc say anything about shaving cause when I was giving my pre op instructions no shave 48 hrs before due to infection being able to enter that body when you shave cuts or just the skin being someone open do to shaving ..I guess doctors are different ..I shaved a week before

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
