I was wondering if anyone had their tubes tied at the same time as laparoscopic rny. My surgeon works with a gyn that is willing to do it but I'm worried about the recovery time after. I don't want to stay longer but I definitely don't want a second surgery. Thoughts?

I asked and mine wouldn't do it

That sucks! I guess it's not a common request. I am only the 2nd person to ask my surgeon to do it. Since there will be a gynecologist assisting him in surgery he said it'll be easy to do instead of me having 2 surgeries. How many kids do you have?

Wow! 21 to 2! Mine are 17 to 5. I've always been over weight too. My smallest weight was 155 but I starved myself and worked out excessively. It lasted about 2 years then I went back up. My biggest was 314 but I'm 294 now. I can't wait to have my surgery so I can be a.healthy 155. It's amazing how fast you lost your weight. If you don't mind me asking' date=' did ypu end up with loose skin?[/quote']

I have loose skin but I'm pretty pleased on how its snapping back. My arms actually look amazing and I think they were my biggest fear. I didn't want flaps. Buy hey we all know it comes with territory right. I work my arms out like cRaZy daily.

Now my tummy.. I have a lil come-lap and that will not be going away no matter what I do. I will say tho... My lil $5 panty gurtle from Target will take it away for the day. LOL

The more weight and exercise I do the flatter the done-lap fold becomes. But yep.. its there.

Now my inner legs have I think what is called as tags. It's obvious that my snap back ain't snapping back there. My inner theighs droop a little... But I'm okay with it. My Dr said to allow myself a full 2 years to lose weight, tone and let the skin shrink back as much as possible before I start thinking the negative. If I get a chance ill take some pics and inbox them to you. LOL

Lmbo @ lil come- lap. I've started working on my trouble spots. I'm really worried about my arms, tummy and back fat. You look amazing! You must share your workout routine or do you mix it up? I hear that mixing it up works well.

I'm planning on buying some compression garments to help it along the way. Moisture is supposed to help elasticity. I use shea butter and olive oil on my skin now. Do you have any suggestions?

I have the inner thigh issue too but I'm as worried about it because it's not going nowhere no time soon. lol.
