So I'm new here, I had a gastric bypass in Oct 2014 and lost 161lbs. I am 5'11 150lbs and was quoted 4150 for a bbl tummy tuck and liposculpture with Dr Almonte. I contacted severbal doctors like baez, yily, Duran, cabral, and Robles and most said I was too skinny and couldn't get a bbl but Dr Almonte and cabral and baez asked me to gain weight. I have been lurking for months and going back and forth with lesly, almontes assistant and i finally sent my depisit! I really like the way almonte does her tummy tucks so I picked her. I hope she can work magic on me because i am on the thin side and look amazing with clothes on, i think i have minimal loose skin for having a ten pound baby and losing 160lbs. I am looking at recovery houses and found yasmin which I think I'm going to stay at. Is there anyone getting surgery around feb 23 2017 here? Looking for a surgery buddy or friends. I'll post pictures later on.
