Hi everyone,
I had a consult with a plastic surgeon regarding having a panniculectomy.
I noticed the dates in this forum are outdated.
Has anyone had one recently? How was recover?
Thanks,
Lisa

Hi everyone,
Has anyone ever had a fluoroscopy? I had one today with barium. The barium didn't move through quickly, they had to manipulate it down.
I have pain in my stomach today. The worst is I won't get results until next week.

I am five months post op and down 65 pounds.
3 more pounds to my doctor's goal weight for me. Although, I want to lose another 20 after that.
Love being able to go shopping and enjoy it.

9 weeks post op and finally starting to feel good.
I thought it would never happen. It was a tough road for me and hopefully the worst is over.

I spoke to someone I work with that had the lap band. She is two years post op and still doesn't feel great.
When will I begin to feel good?

Hi,
Has anyone experienced being very emotional?
I feel like a train wreck. On the verge of tears constantly.

Now I am on soft foods.
was able to have 1 oz of chicken tonight, 5 peas, 1 tablespoon of broccoli and 1/4 tsp of mashed potato.
all mushed in 1/4 tsp of gravy.
I felt like I was eating like a queen.
