no. I did do an email consult with Dr. Sauceda in Monterey, Mexico, but I decided to stay close to home.

I haven’t noticed a big difference in the liposuction they did on my inner thighs other than I am still very sore from it. I was getting the TT anyways, so I don’t regret giving it a shot, and maybe there is still a chance that the swelling isn’t done yet.

I am super happy with the Tummy Tuck, as of yesterday I could put my belt on the pre tummy tuck notch, so a lot of the swelling has gone down. No more loose skin, so no weird bulge below the belt line. Plus my belly button got chopped off when they did my gallbladder surgery and now after reconstruction I think it looks more normal. I’m 49, so wearing a bikini isn’t the most important thing to me, but now I feel like I could wear a bathing suit and not feel self conscious. I am ready to be done with the abdominal binder, but I am going to follow the Doctors advice and wear it another month.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      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! 😞
