I am going to hit my two year mark in January and I am considering doing a Tummy Tuck. I carried my weight all over but definitely in the stomach. It's not bad, but I am still in an L-XL top because of it. I can fit into a Medimum but it doesn't look good lol. Has anyone regretted doing one?

One of my friends did it over Xmas vacation and is so proud of her new flat belly! I think you would be too! I say go for it!!

I say go for it also. I'm also getting mine done in 2 years. My mom had it done years ago. The down side about my mom is that she wants the easy way out,and getting a Tummy Tuck & never exercising & eating out will not keep you in shape so in other words this tummy tuck was a waste of time and money. It has grown back,but not how it was,but it's no longer a flat belly.

I exercise before having WLS and I excercise now,and I will continue exercising,but I know the older I get the less I will be able to do,but as long as I exercise I know I will live a longer & healthier life.

You should talk to a doctor about what you may be dealing with when you have a baby after having the surgery. They can tell you the pros and cons...

Not for nothing but 18 is young especially if you have no kids. You font wanna pay double. You do it now then you married or have kids your tummy grows again & you will need another Tummy Tuck.< /p>

Thanks everyone! I talked to my doctor and she wants me to really think about it and then talk to her again in October at my next appointment. My tummy is the biggest part I want to work on.

      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! 😞
