I am 5'7", 29 years old, and 215 pounds. I have been struggling with my weight since my third C-section in 2003. I diet and excerise, but it only seems to help maintain my wieght between 215 and 240. I have tried gimmick exercise programs to break the plateau and nothing works. So I am considering surgery. I don't want to do anything gastric related. I know that I am nowhere near my ideal weight, nor do I want to slim down that far, so I came across Large Volume Lipo. It seems very promising, but what's the catch?

Answer: Weighing in on liposuction Your situation is a common one. Large volume liposuction is defined by removal of 5 liters or more of fat/fluid. With larger volumes of liposuction there are more risk of fluid problems after surgery which may lead to dehydration. The dehydration if not corrected or prevented can lead to low blood pressure which can affect the heart and/or kidney among other things. Therefore overnight monitoring is minimally required.
