Hey Robin ... thanks for sharing the Tummy Tuck pictures! That is next on my "body & fender" agenda once I reach my goal weight. I am familiar with your website and it was an inspiration to me while I was doing my research before being banded. Thank you for sharing your story and I can't wait to be looking as great as you.

I'm SO glad there are so many bandsters who aren't afraid to share the nitty-gritty. What's the scar like? I'm hoping that I won't have to have plastic surgery for anything other than a breast lift, but you look MARVELOUS!!! I'm counting down to August 5th and am just in a fog with the idea that I could ACTUALLY be average sized again. It just seems like it's too good to be true. I could ramble on this, but I'll spare everyone. THANK YOU FOR SHARING THE PHOTOS!!!! I wish you'd post some new ones on your homepage as well. What's the scar like?

[FDATrialGuineaPig 7]

Here's the scar...it's still pretty dark but as you can see it's not visible underneath underwear.

Thanks again. I assume it's worth it and that the scar will fade considerably. You DESERVE a flat stomach!

Thanks for the pics - you look awesome. Love the purple, too. lol

Tell me again how much it hurt?

:sick :nervous :cry

You are my new hero.. that is on my todo list after I get to goal. I have so many scars on my tummy now that are so ugly. I figure that one is better then 6. How long were you off on this one? I know that this is much more of a major surgery.

Great job - you look great!

Now I know that I am not the only one that sees that tummy in the mirror(your before pic). I call it the c-section hang over.. YUK!!

[meswede 1]

So that's what they call it ... a C-Section Hang Over??? Well my HANGOVER has now lasted for 23 long years!!! I can relate all too well since I survived two stem to stern c-sections. My tummy has never been the same since. However ... Robin's pics give me hope that I too will be proud to sport around in purple one day!

I'll be a prancin' pony!

Hi

Well I've also had my TT done and I must say I am very happy with it, they couldn't do a full TT on me because I had an Open Band repair and they where worried about blood flow to the skin had they gone up under the scared area.

My pictures are on my website under the TT section also my photo section has my photo story of the past 4 years as I lost almost 300 pounds.

My TT was done early due to a port problem and they wanted the TT done to solve this problem.

Anyway Robin you have done very well and hope you can continue do so well always as all of us want to.

Robin,

My jaw is still dropped. Your doc did an awesome job.

Was the TT covered by insurance ? How much was the procedure ?

Also, thanks for linking to our site from your web page .

Malcolm~I've read your website many times and referred it to many people! You so rock!

Alex~I paid cash $6500. And you're very welcome. I really like this site.

I have a question ...

Will everyone need a Tummy Tuck after the weightloss??

My skin is very sensitive, Even the bandaid that I put on the incision caused my skin to flare up. I don't think I could recover from a tummy tuck....

[Guest normchelle]

Wow Robin,

You look like one of those bathing suit models!

Hi Robin,

You don't know me...but I have been following your progress on your websight for months now! I started out around the same weight as you and your story gave me a lot of motivation to go for the surgery for myself! I am so glad I did! Thanks for posting your story and pictures! You are an inspiration!
