pre.sleeve but dreaming of plastics.



Recommended Posts

Say you want a couple procedures, say mm. Would it be easier activity and pain to do it all at once or all at once? Prob be easier to pay for it surg by surg.

If we have the money when I am at least a year stable with weight I want the mommy makeover in one shot. I would not want to keep going back over and over. One operation, one recovery period and on with life :)

Susy, I had all my plastics at once. Today, I am 4 weeks post op and I feel good, only my butt cheeks hurt a little. Just keep in mind that everyone heals at a different pace.

I'm dreaming of separate procedures, I'm not a hero and I don't want to push it...I want breasts up where they belong and a tummy job...at separate times

I can't wait for my mommy makeover. I know it will be very painful, but I would rather have one surgery then multiple surgeries. I've had quite a few surgeries in my life so I'm not too worried about it. It will hurt like crazy, but the pain doesn't last forever and then hopefully I'll be done and I'll move on to enjoying my new life / body!

I had multiple procedures at once and am so glad I did. It was NOT super painful but recovery was long.

I'm lookimg at ps in mx. They never advertise their prices, whereas bariatric surg. plaster their prices all over. What's up with that?

Dr Sauceda has a rough pricing guideline on his website, but really, it is based on individual quotes he does from your photos. His quotes are good for 6 months. The reason is that everyone is different in terms of how extensive the procedures are and also they tend to give "bundle" discounts for having multiple procedures done at once. The sleeve is different -- it is a single procedure.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
