  1. I'm going to Dr Wizman. Was gonna use Dr cohen but I couldnt afford him. My surgery is may 6!
  2. A few weeks ago I was really stressed. Now that I have a date I'm oddly calm about it. I also prayed about it. Asked if it was the right decision for me and that I'd not have any life threatening complications, to help me feel calm about my decision. So far so good!
  3. Thanks! I've seen some bad pics and I'm worried. But hopefully it wont be as bad as I'm imagining. ... which is staying the exact same size with excess skin. Lol
  4. Sarsar hope you're consult goes well! I'm 34 with no kids. I've always been fat but probably the biggest within the last 10yrs. So I'm thinking I probably will have an issue. Oh well. Today is my first meeting with the surgeon!
  5. Oh Wild, I just realized you're in Fl too. Im near Ft Laud/Miami. Were you happy with your surgeon?
  6. Thanks! I'm gonna start working on my triceps and thighs.. well my whole body. I was working out last yr and I can still feel biceps under there. So I'm hoping to gain muscle as I'm losing even of its atva slower pace. Now all I need is a surgery date! Congrats on ur success!
  7. Hi, Just wonderin about exercise and excess skin. Its a concern of mine even though I havent had surgery yet. So, for those of you that did exercise/weight train, did you have alot of excess skin? What about those that didnt workout? I know there are alot of other factors like age, weight, etc.. But I'd like to do my best to prevent it as much as I could. If any of you have any other tips and tricks, please let me know!
  8. Thanks!
  9. Thanks everyone.
  10. I guess what i meant was.... Do these hospitals have an ICU, etc in the event of an emergency? Or are they run like an outpatient clinic? Im big I need to take precautions lol.
  11. Not to be nosy but who was your surgeon and approx how much did you pay?
  12. Hi can you please tell me which hospitals in Mexico are similar to American ones. And did you like your experience there?
