Because of the large amount of fat between the skin and the true body, the skin is bound to sag as fat is removed by the slow gradual burning in everday life. The skin of younger bypass patients who have not been obese for long periods of time recovers more rapidly than others.

Everyone is different. This depends upon your particular skin elasticity. Toning exercises will also help.

We do not recommend a tummy tuck at the same time as surgery, because often you will not need it. Once you lose weight your skin may return to its normal position. Further, insurance companies often do not cover the cost of this surgery. Decision to consider Tummy tuck or other reconstructive skin surgery should be made 12 ? 18 months after weight loss surgery.

Yes. We will have SAG vehicles circling the route all day both days to assist with technical difficulties (i.e. flat tires), transport you to a mechanic station if the issue is more technical, or to ensure your safe return to the finish line each day.

Sag is a condition which appears in some Coleman ABS roofs (these are the formed white plastic roofs) where the roof begins to droop down in the center. Depending on who you listen to, the condition first appeared with the first ABS roofs in 1996. According to Coleman, the problem has been corrected, but many still report problems which can be attributed to a similar condition. The problem is compounded in Coleman's refusal to extend warranty coverage to anyone other than the original owner.

Excellent question; there truly isn't a simple answer. The best way is to work as a non-union background actor as often as possible and do a great job, showing up on time and bringing the proper wardrobe. Occasionally there will be an immediate need for a certain look or ability on the set and if you are in the right place at the right time you will be offered a SAG voucher.

Excellent question; but there is truly no simple answer. The best way is to show up on set early and prepared to work. Bringing the proper wardrobe to set. Listening when the crew is speaking. Occasionally there immediate need for a certain look or ability on the set and if you are in the right place at the right time you will get a SAG voucher.

Yes, we have a sag wagon for medical emergencies and mechanical breakdowns. Where possible, our vehicles are equipped with ATOC Topper Racks to be able to carry you and your bicycle back to camp, if necessary. I encourage participants to come prepared to do the entire ride and not to plan on being sagged. Where it is necessary, however, we will provide a shuttle service for participants who are unable to continue riding.

A waterbed will never sag or go out of shape. Due to the nature of a waterbed the body’s weight is evenly distributed and thus the bed keeps its form for many years. Waterbeds are constructed from super strength materials which have proven durability and can withstand lots of wear and tear. Some of our customers are still using the same waterbeds they bought over 20 years ago.

Currently you need to have worked on three SAG jobs as a background actor (each time earning a SAG voucher).

No. Under the terms of the Student, Short and Ultra-Low Budget Agreement(s), producers can use both professional and non-professional actors in the same film. Non-SAG actors can't get into the union by doing one of these films.

We can only use your car if you have a driver to go with it. We need volunteers with cars to be sag wagon drivers. If you are interested, please check off the sag wagon volunteer box on your BRAG registration form or send an email to Vicki@brag.org or call 770-498-5153 to volunteer.

Skin is the largest organ in your body. Its purpose is to protect your muscles, bones and organs, to keep your body at the proper temperature and to give you the sense of touch.

If you have a skin disease, rashes, or allergies to adhesives, check with your doctor before using NicoDerm CQ. If a skin rash develops, or if the skin under the patch becomes swollen or very red, stop using NicoDerm CQ and see your doctor.

If you need to, you can shave a small area of skin and apply NicoDerm CQ to it. But make sure the area is not nicked or irritated.

This is a collection of the quesions people most commonly ask me. Perhaps you were wondering about these topics yourself, but "didn't want pry." I hope this page helps satisfy any lingering curiousity you may have! :)
