Buh-bye front butt



Recommended Posts

Aside from the obvious health benefits from WLS, I have to vainly confess.... i am thorougly looking forward to seeing my "front butt" disappear. My pregnancy ruined my muscles and on top of being overweight it has really sent me into total insecurity about my body. My work uniform does nothing but accentuate the area and Spanx doesnt help much at all. I find myself making sure I carry something in front of me when I leave my desk in order to avoid the looks of people I pass in the hallways. I realize there will always be hanging skin there but its exciting to know that my most insecure area will not be so notiecable once i get down to a manageable weight. YAY!

So my question is, is there anything I can do to tighten loose skin?

That's the million dollar question! I too have a blame it on pregnancy, butt in the front with a lovely apron. C sections, vertical.

I'm a mass of wrinkles on my butt. I've just started doing toning exercises for butt, thighs and abs...who knew I had abs until they started shrieking in pain?

I walk, I dance and jog in my living room.

I'm doing crunches as well as I can get my shoulders off the floor.

I've accomplished some pretty crappy push ups. But, I did them!

Just google some ab toning to do. I'm assuming you're young, that's in your favor.

Let us know what you come up with!

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.
