Hi everyone, hope that you all are having a blessed day. I wasnt quite sure if i would make a post, but as i approach my counsult date (4/3) at Lenox Hill Hosp, I feel the need to reach out to those who have had work done at Lenox Hill.... I am a 40 year old, 5"4, 205 lbs mother of 3. Usually women lose weight before going in for a tummy tuck but i dont feel the need to. I dont want to be skinny, I just want to look good in my clothes. I currently wear a size 14/16 depending on the time of month.... Is there anyone out there that is about my height and weight that has had a TT procedure done? if so what were your results? How Much did it cost?..... I may also be considering a breast lift......

I'm having a full TT on Thursday in Grand Rapids, MI. The cost is $11,100 which is discounted because I used the same PS for my BR in October. I am 58 yr old, mother of 2 grown children, 5'5" and 237#. I have posted a bunch of before pictures on my bio, maybe you could post some pictures?

Hello I am from West Bloomfield Michigan and I have always weighed more than I look. I am 5"3 and I weighed 199 at the time of surgery and as of today I am 189. When I went to have the surgery I wore 12's but today I wore my size 8 yoga pants I am very solid, but after my children my stomach never went back . My PS was not concerned about my weight at all.

Thanks HealthyDiva. My Dr. didn't seem concerned about my weight or BMI as long as my weight was some what steady. I won't be a little girl after surgery since I never have been so I'll just be happy to be flat and not have all this flab & rolls in front & back. Thanks for your comments...

I'm with you on size. I am happy being a 14. I just want a flat stomach. They told me my BMI had to be less than 29 so I have to lose some weight before Lenox Hill will do the TT. But I will watch your journal and progress!!! Good Luck!!!

So my consultation 4/3 with lenox hill was terrible! I was told to lose 30 pounds and come back for the procedure! smh!!!.... I was crushed! Depression set in real bad. I ended up gaining an additional 6 pounds!.....

These days im back to my 205 pounds and i also have a new vigor for life:-) The reason why is Dr. Yily De Los Santos. Her work is amazing! According to the blogs she has performed tt on patients my weight range with no problem. If thats not good enough, $5000 will get you a whole new body (damn near)!!!!!!
So, i plan to schedule my sx for early September (God willing). I nervous about leaving the country for a sx as big as this but im so motivated to get this done.
Im praying this works out..... Have a blessed week everyone:-)

...So i contacted Dra Yily over 12 days ago and no response! Im starting to get a little bit discouraged. If thats not bad enough, i put on 2 more pounds!!!!!! LORD HAVE MERCY! A friend suggested i try the Fruta Planta for weight loss. I guess ill give it a go since i seem to just keep gaining weight even though my diet has not changed. Anywho, Is anybody else dealing with the same issue not being able to contact Dra Yily? My plan is to have my procedure done in mid-september, its the only time im able to stay away from home for an extended period.
