I had it done by Dr. Kurtis Martin in Cincinnati Ohio and it was about 6k with lift and implants. I did saline because I still had a lot of breast tissue left. So that made it a little cheaper. The hospital and anesthesiologist was what cost the most lol

I was 5'7 and 250 on my surgery date. I am now 140 today. I don't want to lose any more weight. It will be a year June 30th. And yes it is very frustrating in the beginning but trust me you will continue to lose and reach ur goal! I always focused on my water and protein! My favorite snacks are peanuts, string cheese and yogurt. I still can't eat very much at a time so I focus on eating several times a day. I have had a breast lift and implants and arm lift. I plan to have a lower body lift in September. I had a lot of excess skin! Sorry if I forgot something....lol just ask!

In June it will be a year since my VSG. I reached my goal about 7 months after surgery. I am currently 10 pounds under my goal weight as of now. I am super happy with my sleeve and would do it all over again! I am from Ohio and Dr. Trace Curry was my surgeon. If anyone has any questions at all just ask! I love to help! Good Luck! Ashley

I started pureed foods today. I am 7 days post op. I had Wendys chili pureed, and it was so yummy! Then I had turkey pureed with gravy, and mashed potatoes....yum! then I had some peaches, they were super soft in 100% juice so i just chewed them up good. I ate about 1/4 cup at each meal and it went really well. It just feels so good to eat! LOL good luck with your puree's! I am going to keep experimenting and will let you know if I find something yummy. I'm going to make chicken salad tomorrow.
