Once I achieve, and maintain, my target weight for my height (5'9) I will take care of the nips, tucks, and lifts.

I'd like to be around 155 lbs. Maybe a little more. I'm okay with curves, just not rolls! Lol

Hopefully my WLS will go well in Mexico and then i can feel comfortable getting my nips, tucks, and lifts there too.

Amanda Rae

Ahhhh... can't wait until we can be nipped, tucked and lifted! And I'll be going to either Mexico or India when it's time for that!

I found this site. It seems to encompass *most* of the world. I think it will be a good starting point.

Since I have done lots of research, be aware when websites claim things. They have American Surgical Logo but let me assure you that American Surgeons association is not going to recommend out of country doctors. Also doctors pay for advertisement so there may be only drs they represent. Also I can guarantee that every country has a lot more doctors that are great and are not having their own website and I have personally met a few. Just info for you

Do you know of any well reviewed surgeons who offer a total body package? Thighs. Tummy. Lower body lift. Arms.

All well doctors do complete body makeover, some are better then others, some will do more in one setting then others. My doctor would only do Lipo all over and tt in one setting then other surgeries in another setting. My local doctor would not even lipo more then one area where is Dr Cardenas did the whole bosy and removed 10 litres at once!!!

Excellent. It will be a long road. I gotta take the weight off and save the cash. I plan to start a "Nips, Tucks, and Lifts" savings once I'm postop from my sleeve.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

    • buildabetteranna

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
