opinions needed on Dr. Carmina Cardenas, MX
freespirit63 replied to 5DoxieMom's topic in Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery
There is a weirdo on that site who says she hated Cardenas results after 2 days out of surgery then 4 months later she loved it. I read that and when I went to TJ with my friend for her sleeve, I saw Dr Cardenas assistant and asked her about it. She said this lady was back and forth with the procedure, one day she wanted next day she didnt. Finally on the day of her ride bailed on her. Fatimeh asked her if she still wanted it. She said yes and Fatimeh has arranged a ride for her that morning. The day after surgery she was already complaining about results and Fatimeh and Dr Cardenas told her that you have to wait 6 months for final results. I am totally in agreement with that. Aslo you have to eat healthy and exercise or results will be sabotaged. Guess what...I am an emotional eater and ate too much. Now I am paying the price. We have to listen to our doctors for the most part. -

freespirit63 replied to Cuaya's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I am with you on this one. I was 183 and went to 163 with a lapband and up to 179 in 4 years. Even had plastics to correct loose skin. I removed my band in April and hanging on to last 40 pounds. Come on 5 pounds weight loss for $15000 surgery!!!! -
TT and thighs at the same time?
freespirit63 replied to Lauren4fun's topic in Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery
I was laying down for first 2 weeks a lot but I was allowed to sit as well. Not sure why you could not sit . I was in Mexico for 2 weeks then I flew home over 4 hour flight. I had multiple procedures done at same time so there was a bit of a discount. I think its $2500 plus a stay at a recovery house. -

Anyone from London Ontario? -
Wow that was some surgery. You are my hero

it takes about a year for scars to fade. Your stomach gets pulled down and scar lowers but does not go away, ofcouse depends on how much skin you have.

I had my lapband removed April 17th. I still struggle with some foods due to my stomach shape is still same as with a band. My hunger level is up. I am not able to shake off the 15 pounds I gained with a band last year. I wonder if sleeve will even work for me
