So my relationship with my lap band is going on two month! And I'm in love!! I have already lost 50 lbs. My band only has 3.5cc in it and I'm moving along fabulously! The only thing I'm concerned with is that pesky loose skin. I was wondering if anyone had any luck just tightening up with body wraps? You know, like giving myself a reward for doing so well! I understand my skin has been stretched for quite some time so getting back to that smooth tight look will most likely need plastics in the end.. but what about now?! I love love love my band but it's time for me to start making my skin look and feel better.

If you would enjoy it why not?! We use to reward ourselves with food now we find new ways.

Enjoy pampering yourself, you deserve it.

From what I understand the wraps are very temporary because they work via dehydrating the skin. Great if you're going to an event where you want to look your best but the effect doesn't last long.

There are also sleeved outfits (called something like wonder sleeve) that gather up loose underarm skin. However, the best long term treatment (aside surgery) is to tone those loose parts. Filling the area with lean muscle. :)

      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! 😞
