I have been feelin all good about myself until I saw my reflection in a full length mirror yesterday. Sure I'm losing but oh my lawd, my butt is taking on a stupid shape. I'm only 18 days out and I'm blaming this butt shape on lack of exercise. Sitting on my arse, trying to heal and figure out what's wrong with my gut (whole other story).

You know how some people have that flat spot then it gets round on the top? Like you can see where they have sat for years and years?

That's now MY butt. NOOOOOO! I can't WAIT til I can exercise and get my fat redistributing. Dang.

Amanda, I'm in the hospital with blood clots in the vessels in(on?) my intestines. It's rare, they say I'm an "interesting case". Had I waited, parts of my bowel actually could have died and I'd need sirgery. I've been here since yesterday and I seem to be improving already. The pain really seems to Have subsided quite a bit.

But. My butt. :( it looks like an old ladies rump.

Well, I guess since this is rare, chances are you won't get it. But I had severe stomach pain for a week. Doubled over on the floor crying out to god pain. Was mis"diagnosed" 3 times because noone wanted to take me very seriously. Sigh

All my life, even when stick thin, I had hips. Got fat, hips got fatter. Got thin, hips went flat. I mean gone. NO BUTT.

Don't know where the heck it went.

Enough about butts. More importantly, hope you get better soon, amytug!

Im 60 so expecting no butt, boobs to the waist at least, and a crap load of ugly skin! Im going to get a bunch of those spam can keys and just roll it up and tuck it away. I think with all the other issues, a flat butt will be pretty far down my priority list! Tons of well wishes amy! I think you sound better... Theres a joy in your words that i have not heard for a long time.

Lol Amy! You're so cute. And unfortunately I've lost and gained weight (up to 100lbs) more times than I'd like to count, and really, you could look in the mirror 10 pounds from now and your butt might be a whole new shape!! Lol Don't worry about it. You need to focus on resting and getting better. Your first couple weeks have sucked! But, it's all downhill from here!!! :)

I am young at heart and work with mostly much younger women and under 20 kids so have failed/refused to start wearing dark colors and say things like... When i was your age..... I did realize after i had posted my comment that few would remember a spam key... Theyre probably pull top now! Im happy to say i have not purchased the stuff for many years!

      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! 😞
