I received my quote from Barcelona and I am ready to schedule surgery. The exchange rate looks favorable and I think this summer is going to be a good time for it. I am going to try to lose weight before I go. My doctor here in the states (DR Zigler) thinks I should lose 20 or 30 pounds before surgery. I am wondering if other people have heard that from their surgeons? Does being overweight make recovery a lot more difficult?

Thanks,
