wow! can't even tell you had anything done! How's the scar healing?

Looking good Butter. I know you're glad you can get back to exercising again.

I honestly never even look at the scar. It's below my underwear line.....it doesn't bother me whatsoever. The surgeon said it looks amazing for 2 months.

Congratulations, Butter, et al. I've read all the way through. I have a consult scheduled for 1/10. I wonder if any of you who've had TT noticed a benefit to lateral or medial thighs? Also, how much did TT help lift pubis area? How you all describe post op positioning and pain/discomfort reminds me a lot of my post op ventral hernia repair. I think I may not be a TT candidate because I have mesh in my lower abdomen. I'll know after 1/10.

Congrats on getting your consult scheduled. I personally don't think you'll see much change in the pub is area or the thighs from a TT. But from a LBL....definitely. But obviously a surgeon could answer that question much better than I could.

Thanks BTB for sharing your journey! I've lost 183 pounds and have about 15 more to go! I'm hoping to be thinking about plastics in about 9 to 12 months! Continued success to everyone!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
