Question...Do you still have cankles?

Okay, now that it is sandal season.....I was wondering, will my cankles go away after I have WLS? I am pear shaped (poor me) and carry most of my weight on my legs (double poor me). I haven't seen my ankles in years! How I long to wear a sexy pair of pumps! Also, does cellullite go away after WLS?

Hi, Don't worry--everything does get smaller--and you will see your ankles (it takes time --but it will happen) The cellulite--well --no it doesn't go away--it can happen even to the thinnest of people. BUT you have a pear shape--that means that under the pear --there is an hourglass figure--with a waist--that is a GOOD thing! I would suggest lots of exercise and (swimming --if possible) I still have cellulite--but in clothes--no one can tell. Besides we can always save up for a tummy tuck or a lower body lift--that will smoothe out a lot of the orange skin. Don't worry --in a year (which will go VERY fast) you won't recognize the woman in the mirror. Be Blessed Marian S.C. 242.4/157.8/gaol 125-130???

YES we do shrink all over! I have even gone down a size in SHOES! We all loose different and our skin reacts differently but its still "ROCKS" to have lost this much weight! hugzzzzzzzzzzz lisa

Hi Lisa, As usualy, thanks! I was thinking that I should've taken a before picture with you and other Ahmadians at the last Info Session. Too bad I didn't think about it sooner! Will you be at the next one? If so, when is it? I'll be cruising the caribbean 7/8-7/16 hopefully it won't be offered during that timeframe. Maryellen WLS 7/31/06?
