Getting Sleeved In 30 Mins
The whole Mexico experience was wonderful, no fears and no worries.. I will never forget the care and hospitality.. I have never experienced that here in the states... Will be one week post op tomorrow and I'm doing very well minus the dumping syndrome but i think I've found the culprit ..sugar, won't have anything with more than 3 grams of sugar in it...good luck to everyone else.. Remember walk, sip and walk.. Lol .. Oh how could I forget the worst part of it all is the drain you have to have a few days .. Otherwise not bad at all

Week One!
I was sleeved on march 27th and I feel wonderful with the exception of dumping syndrome but I think ive found the culprit and I'm feeling 100% better. I'm starting creamy soups no chunks along with full liquids today as instructed by my nut.. Im not gonna have any food until day 22. I've heard of people going back for post op check up and having food in there staple line wich can cause a delay or difficulty in the healing process.. I'm not gonna take that chance.

Getting Sleeved In 30 Mins
Arrived here in Tijuana yesterday before noon. Crossing the border was easy. I'm staying at the Marriott not far from hospital Angeles. The hotel is very nice, heated pool, all the HBO channels (English) and great tasting coffee. Everyone has been very nice. I met some other sleevers as well. Coming alone hasn't been too bad so far. The next time I post I'll be sleeved.. Good luck to the rest of you
