Anyone know how to change profile setting for what treatment you had? Originally, I was set to have a Tummy Tuck but had to change to WLS due to health issues needing to get under control.

My Doctor was Stephen Maguire when I was going to get the tummy tuck but was changed when I couldn't lose weight and health issues started to come up. So I discuss it with primary Dr. He thought I would be a good candidate for wls. My wls is Henry Zizzi. He is a Awesome!!! His staff is the BOMB!!

Your shape is not ewwww! You are beautiful. Thanks for the insights on what I can look forward to. Was it harder to sit up or lie down in the beginning? I ask because I noticed you said you would sleep in the recliner.

@ suchalady85 My Drainage tube was left in for 4 days and that really hurt to have that in. My husband thought it would be fine to make me get in bed. Nope!!! Not Good!! I couldn't use my stomach muscles to get out of bed. It's was better for me to stay in sitting position.

Oh okay that makes a lot of sense. Sorry you had to endure that. I know it must have been hard. Buy thankfully the pain is over now.

Thank God! !! I have gotten over the worse of the pain. I still sleep with a pillow on the side I had the drainage tube on. It's still tender and my stomach is numb on that side. My surgeon stated the numbness would leave with time.

So I am confused :/ Reading your comments it says you were going to have a tummy tuck but and talked about the drainage tube and how well surgery went. But then I read you had weight loss surgery. If you had wls did that take care of the excess stomach skin because according to your pics it did and you look great!! I am curious because I am wanting to get a TT but don't think they would do one because I weight around 250
