Well I just got home for my pre-op appt with my Dr. All is set for tomorrow, surgery is still at 10am.

I am not sure where I missed it, but I did not realize that you get a port.

Where do they put it?

Can you feel it?

Can you see it once you lose a lot of weight?

Anyone know?

It is under the skin. You'll never know you have it. I ride motorcycles, bicycles, etc and it does not effect me. I have changed my shirt in front of people that do not know that I had the surgery and they don't suspect that I've had the surgery.

Don't worry about it.

My port is on my left side a little lower than the bottom of my ribs. You can't see it at all. You can feel it if you press around on that area if you know what you're looking for. I just had surgery on the 6th, but I know others who have already lost over 140lbs and you can't see their port. You'll be fine!

Yes... you can feel it right under your skin. It will bug you at first but your body will get used to it.

Mine.. left side under last rib.

heh right above port i got a little blug of fat then scar area with port underneath it.

Yes... I can feel it when I push around the area

I have read that you wont notice the port area when you loose the fat.

I can't even feel mine. I didn't know where it was until Dr showed me. He had no problem finding it to do the fill.
