A little background, I had gastric sleeve about a year and a half ago. I've been overweight my entire life. Decided to start the hard work and I'm on the cusp of achieving my goal weight. I've decided on a surgeon and had my consultation. I'm super excited and nervous. I would love some tips from any rs vets. What products to purchase, what really helped you sleep or any other tips you may have... here are a few before pictures and what I'm workin with.

Good luck to you. Dr Pyle did my surgery and you are going to love your results. He is an amazing surgeon.

Very happy with my results! I'm so glad I went with 560. I was contemplating 600, but decided to go a bit smaller. I'm so happy I did. They're perfect. They don't look 100% natural, just yet, but I'm only 4 months out. They settle more and more every day. When I have a shirt on, they look very proportionate to my frame and natural. If you click on my profile picture, I have updated photos on my full review. Hope that's helpful! Good luck with your surgery! Can't wait to see your results!

Three kids!
Trying to start my meal prepping. Get Christmas decorations and lights hung all while managing a household and three kiddos! ???? My husband travels for work. He's currently overseas, so I'm trying to get all of his favorite meals froze (breakfast biscuits and dinners for him and the kids). How do you moms do it??

Pre-op
Headed in to pre op in the morning! It's soooo close. Just two weeks. What should I expect? Do they draw on you? Take pictures? Sound off ladies! I can't wait to be on the other side.

Hey there! I just went for pre-op last week and no they do not draw on you but they can tell you where your scar will be and answer any last minute questions. I was also able to discuss again my expectations of implant size and he was totally open to going smaller for me, given my concerns of being too 'out there.' Tons of pics are taken by nurse Molly. I went by myself since my hubby was home with sick kid (figures). I was given scripts that I still haven't filled and all post care instructions are in writing. I left feeling totally prepared for next week's surgery. Hope this helps!

Thank you for the quick response! Do they give you something to wear for your pictures or are they taken in your own underwear? I'm excited to see nurse Molly, I've heard a lot of good things about her. Just met her briefly at the consultation. Hope your little one gets better soon! I know that will be stressful if you (and the hubs) has to do this with a sick child. Quick healing to you!

So I guess I haven't figured out how to see if I have comments?! Sorry for the delay. How did it go?!

It went great. I'm having a time deciding on implant size. Dr. Pyle let me know he can put in sizers (I guess that's standard so they can make sure that the size looks good.) and he can make the decision from there. They saw the 'goal' pictures, so I trust he'll go in the right direction. The pictures were less than fun. Haha. But all apart of the process. They also said they provide the scar treatment, so that was nice. Molly was amazing, as expected. I didn't feel rushed. They really took their time. About a week out for you. I know you've gotta be excited. Can't wait to see an update!
