I don't know about how weight gain works. But I do know and have heard that u will never get a tummy again. I love my results. I'm 3 weeks post Op and I have lost 35 lbs. I am still swollen and will continue to lose . they said it takes a full 6 months for swelling to go down. I'm actually making me an appt for a fill next month. I just want to make sire everything is still in tack and I think I need a fill anyway. I'm very happy about getting a tummy tuck.

@@fashionstylist Congrats on your surgeries! I bet you feel like a new person! I have a question if you don't mind? When they performed your TT did they have to completely un-fill your band? Do you know if they detached your port from your muscle and sewed it back? I went to a consultation and these were the steps they told me were necessary which is what has caused most of my hesitation. Just wondering if this is always the case or just how this particular doctor performed. Thanks!

my surgeon didn't mess with my port at All. I'm sure it was adjusted. But I know I still have some In There because I still have restriction. I know it's not as Much as it was . so when I go I'll have them take an xray. If the surgeon is familiar with wls patients which most are u shouldn't worry my dear. If this is what u want then u should. I'm glad u r researching and asking questions. It was the best decisions. I was losing weight but the TT just sealed it for me. I look 10 years younger . Ask me whatever u like . yayyy

Sweet sue

I made the date for march for my TT

Lost around same poundage. But this extra lap has got to go. It has been over 8 yrs of eating right and exercising. No luck with that last pouch fold. Chickened out of boob stuff. But I'm determined to get a bit smaller. Keep me updated on your progression ????

I had breast reduction 17 years ago. There hasn't been one day that I regret. The surgeon lifted things and they look great

      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!!
