It really depends in the surgeon and where in Mx you have your procedure. The range is $4500 -$10k. Surgeon and location factor into the price. You can expect to pay more in Puerto Vallarta or Cancun. Surgeons who've been at it longer or use bigger hospitals often command a bigger price as well. I am only scratching the surface. There are so many contributing factors. I've learned so much in my research and from people here who're sharing their experiences...

Keeping hydrated. Exercise. Possibly cosmetic surgery.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
