I am 5'2 and weigh 210 lbs. I am considering loosing weight to get down to 190-200 lbs, but overall I like my weight, just NOT my heavy thighs. I had the gastric sleeve 6 years ago and gained some of the weight back due to severe back pain, but even when I lost weight from the sleeve, my thighs were still very large. Also, how much does large volume liposuction cost?
