    Pic Update!

    It comes off, just not overnight. We loose up to 2 years before we stabilize. So just enjoy it day to day
  2. WHoo HOoo :cheer2: Knew all along you'd get there :party4:
  3. I was sleeved April 5th by Dr. Almaza at Jerusalem Clinic. I bought my daughter with me, my Coordinator was Nina and she owns and shares her own spacious and beautiful 5 bedroom home with her patients. Her nurse/housekeeper will take you shopping whenever you want. Jerusalem sends their van to her home to take you for your x-ray, port removal, and transportation to the San Diego airport. I had a wonderful experience and would do it again. I'll leave a link for Nina's website for anybody who has any questions about any of the surgeries that interest them. If anyone has any questions for me feel free to ask, I'll answer as best I can. http://www.bariatricinmexico.com/index.php
  4. WoW Good for you!! I'm so happy for you
  5. CONGRATULATIONS! Surgery & Vacation... You'll be on a liquid diet, maybe some smoothies, yogurt, clear soups, and lots and lots of water. Try not to strain yourself, relax but sight see, take a walk in the evening when it's not so hot or sunny out, and enjoy your vacation!
  6. It really shows. You look great!

    Which Dr. and where?

    Dr. Mario Almanza, TJ, Mexico Jerusalem Clinic. Wonderful experience. Went out a day early to enjoy San Diego first. No problems. No pain. No leaks. Leave extra early to get back into the states to make your flight on time, the boarder crossing line is very long and time consuming, 3-4 hours at least. maybe cosmetic next
  8. My Nexium is 40mg. Like Wendal said, look for the generic version of prevacid or something and check the milligrams, you might have to take two.
  9. You have at least another 4 - 6 weeks before pizza..

    April Update from everyone

    Hi, I was sleeved on April 4th by Dr. Almaza in TJ Mexico, and feeling great. Had a stall that lasted almost 3 weeks but thankfully, I'm on the downward spiral again. Best thing I ever did, wish I'd done it sooner and when I was younger!

    ouch. Good luck in your recovery and hopefully you'll be sleeved real soon. Keep up the positive attitude.
