So, I was wondering! After looking at myself in them mirror last night after my weird workout. I couldn't help but to think if my stomach is going to go down after wls. I want to know from people who have had surgery and had a stomach and it signifigantly went down without having a wierd shape. For example whe you lay on your side and you see your stomach, does that disappear?

Which surgery are you talking about?  When you mean stomach are you meaning belly fat?  If you do, Yeh, it really is strange being able to roll over or just up from the floor without thinking about it..."How am I going to get up"? You just do it...

The fat goes away, the skin does not.  The older you get and the longer you were obese, the less likely it is that your skin will still have the elasticity needed to become smooth and taut again. That is why so many people have tummy tucks and even entire body lifts to rid themselves of the excess skin.  It's a personal decision just like having weight loss surgery is a personal decision.

I had a HUGE belly before surgery.... 

It went down but my body looks like a deflated balloon now

I just disguise the flab with clothes....

Ohhh ok, so the fat goes but the skin stays, well im 28 with a 15 year habit, so im patient with myself with the skin however if needed im open to other options.
