Guest guest Posted November 10, 2002 Report Share Posted November 10, 2002 , How much weight will they be removing? This might be a huge factor. Is your goal a number you are shooting for? Sometimes that never happens - our bodies just stop. How far out are you? Personally I would go for it before they change their minds!

Guest guest Posted November 10, 2002 Report Share Posted November 10, 2002 I have to say that I was done losing by 11 months out. I was approved for tummy and arms and had it done at 18 months out. I lost about 10 lbs post and put it all back. (I didn't eat solids - just shakes for two weeks - didn't want to poop! LOL). I would have to say that I think you are about done - unless you use heroic measures - you know eating nothing but a lettuce leaf every third day and exercising 3 hours a day. Go for it! But remember it's JMHO... Good luck! Marjie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted November 10, 2002 Report Share Posted November 10, 2002 My WLS recommended that we have the PS before readhing goal weight, as long as the welght loss had stabilized. This is because you leave some weight behind ( " on the cutting room floor " as they say in Hollywood), and from the surgical " trauma " you will probably lose some more weight. I left 10 pounds on the cutting room floor and lost another 10 pounds in the two weeks following my plastics (hernia repair, abdominoplasty, butt and outer thigh lift). And, I have lost an additional five pounds since then. --Steve At 8:24 PM +0000 11/10/02, Downing wrote: >Well I just had to post today.
