"Panniculectomy"
do you guy's know if there is a film you can watch on the procedure?....I would like to see how it's done. I'm scheduled for one next Monday morning if things go well....not ashamed to say I'm alittle nervous. But this band of loose skin has to go. It's getting in my way of doing things...any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Dave
Well .. I don't have anything as far as videos go.
However - here's a link to the newspaper article about my first surgery, and at the bottom of it, they have some graphics that describe it fairly well:

As far as post-weight loss - keep an eye on Discovery Health and some of those channels - watch Big Medicine or some of those shows, they explain them pretty well, too.
Good luck, I just had mine done on 5/2/08 - they removed 11 additional pounds. I'm still healing, but there's a HUGE difference.
No, but here's a little song I penned in the shower one day that we pre-PSers can sing when thinking about it:
(sung to the tune of My Bonnie)
My panni hangs over my pubis,
My panni hangs over on me,
My pannie hangs over my pubis,
Please take off this panni from me!
(chorus)
Take off, take off,
Please take off this panni from me (from me),
Take off, take off,
Please take off my panni from me!
