How has the recovery been from the lower body lift? Lord knows my skin is bad enough to need on! Good for you for being able to have it done.

Recovery has been so easy...Surprising since I had built it up in my mind so much I was pretty scared, but it's been great, I have a great surgeon who told me I would not experience any pain, I thought he was just blowing smoke but he was right, when I asked how could this be? He told me it was how he handles the tissue, he said first of all he doesn't allow his patients to bleed, and secondly he is very gentle with the tissue, well it seems to have worked because the only time I felt any pain was during recovery at the hotel I was staying in and I was watching a rerun of a old friends episode and I started laughing...not a good thing after your stomach muscles have been resewn together! I pretty much am back to my ole self...I traveled to Mexico, where I had a wonderful surgeon, board certified, and also a micro-surgeon so my incisions were great and the price was very affordable too...

      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! 😞
