I was at 30.8 bmi. That's still considered obese. Do your research people.

I had lower BMI too when I was sleeved. I support you.

Be fortunate his incompetence didn't result in anything worse and that you were alive and well to pay for surgery again !!! However, I can't blame you if you want to kick his ass lol. I want to for you. Lol

Congrats! Life changing! Just watch your new life unfold!

Soda is no good. Not even diet. It's crap.

Congrats! Life changing!

how much was it to have it done here in Missouri

sleeved by Dr. Cabrera and Dr. Venzuale on 2/25/2013

Tummy Tuck alone was 4,152 to surgeon. Then I paid hospital separately. But I had 3 things done at once so not sure how much I paid to hospital was for tummy tuck. Maybe 2,00 because total bill to hospital for all 3 procedures was 4,500 and the hospital bills by time in the surgery room and I was in there 6 hours for everything

I hated eating for almost 2 years. But something has changed now and it's not like that anymore. It does change. It does get better.

My surgery was 2 years ago with Dr Kelly. So glad I did so much research and verified all his credentials. I couldn't have picked a better surgeon.

I'm 41. I had the sleeve at 39. I just had a Tummy Tuck, breast lift and lypo in five areas just six days ago.

My sleeve in Mexico was with Dr Kelly and was 5,500

I had my sleeve surgery in Mexico 2 years ago. That was a breeze. After much research about how invasive and how tough the recovery is from a Tummy Tuck, I opted to stay near home for this one. I had a tummy tuck, breast lift , and lypo in 5 areas. My surgeon was in Chesterfield, Missouri and I went to Barnes Hospital. My sleeve in Mexico was 5,500. My tummy tuck, breast lift , and lypo in 5 areas was 16,000. I know I could have saved a ton in Mexico but to me I wasn't willing to go to Mexico for plastics.

do not have a Tummy Tuck and watch a rerun of 40 year old virgin on your 5 th day of recovery!!!!! No matter how hard you try you will still laugh uncontrollably and it hurts like hell!!! My bad..lol

I just had a Tummy Tuck 5 days ago. After my surgery my surgeon told me he I had a hernia and some scar tissue from my previous vsg surgery and gall bladder surgery that other surgeons did. My tummy tuck surgeon informed me he took care of it all for free while he was in there doing my tummy tuck.

I had my sleeve surgery in Mexico with Dr. Kelly and his coordinator at the time Trish. That was a breeze.

I had it all done in Missouri. At Barnes Hospital with one of the top Surgeons here, Dr. Lund in Chesterfield, MO.

I went to Mexico for my sleeve. And i would recommend anyone doing it that Way. However, I just had a Tummy Tuck, breast lift and lypo in 5 areas. The tummy tuck is so invasive and the recovery is brutal that I would NOT recommend anyone going to Mexico for it !!!

This is off the subject but can anyone tell me how to fill in those two boxes where you can put in a before pic and after pic ???

No. I'm having my cosmetic surgery where I live due to the extensive discomfort and healing a Tummy Tuck can require.

My sis is having surgery April 1st. Mine was 2 years ago! Changed my life! Best thing I ever did for myself!

Can't believe it's been 2 years since my vsg with Dr. Kelly and Trish. Wow , how this experience has changed my life. Now, I'm making more changes. On Tuesday, March 19th, I am having a Tummy Tuck to remove sagging skin and stretch marks, a breast lift , and lypo in five areas to contour my body . Can't wait !

I live in South County. I was sleeved 1 1/2 years ago. -Sheila

I eat anything I want!!!!! No more obsessing over food!!!! My life is so different because I truly just eat what sounds good to me, I just can't eat much of it because there isn't much space. For instance, today I ate a grilled chicken sandwich from McDonald's and I was able to eat 1/2 to 3/4 but that last bite didn't feel good. I still order off kids menus and share meals with people. If I get a sandwich from somewhere usually can only eat 1/2 with no sides. pizza hut pizza just one piece is comfortable. If I eat 1 1/2 then I'm not comfortable. I've even tested this and ate just crap for a week. I think it's impossible for me to gain weight. it's like I'm finally safe in somebody else's wonderful body.

Doing research for my friend. I was already sleeved 1 1/2 years ago at Florence Hospital but they are wanting to send her to INT? Anybody sleeved at INT ? If so , when ?

What hospital did you have surgery at ?
