Avoiding Some Medical Issues
thinmymind replied to Finding Myself's topic in Mexico & Self-Pay Weight Loss Surgery
I am ready to change my eating habits forever! I think the biggest challenge will be getting in the liquids, but after reading that post, I see another reason why it is so important. Thanks for the article. -

I just ordered free samples from Chike Nutrition. They send a full serving sized packet of each of their 5 flavors. You just pay shipping. -
Trying To Decide On Which Md In Mexico.
thinmymind replied to Naturals's topic in Mexico & Self-Pay Weight Loss Surgery
I am using Dr. Kelly. His assistant (not a coordinator), Omar has been really great. They also fit me in on June 14th. I scheduled it May 27th - so it was a fast track. Here is the contact info: J.Ricardo-R.Kelly.M.D-FACS info@wlsclinic.com www.wlsclinic.com wls-clinic@hotmail.com Tel-Direct (619)793-4869 & (619)955-6771 Cell. (619)395-5347 -
Self Pay With Questions!
thinmymind replied to girlfriday's topic in Mexico & Self-Pay Weight Loss Surgery
I decided on Dr. Kelly in Mexico and scheduled it less than 3 weeks out. I was told you do not need a passport to go to Mexico, but need it to come back. StrangelyNormal sounds like she has inside info though! My surgery is $5500 including everything but the airfare. -

I'll be with Dr. Kelly June 14th - maybe we will pass in the halls! -
New And Feeling Great
thinmymind replied to Christina01's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am June 14th too! -
June 14th for me - I found two other women here also on the same day. Someone (MinaT) started a June sleevers thread and she kept a log of everyone there - Maybe start a July one to find some buddies?
-
Welcome, I am pretty new around here too. It's a great support system, everyone is really helpful and kind. I am June 14th in Mexico.

I like wearing the workout tanks with the built in bras. The ones I have fit tight against the body, but not so tight as a compression garment. Do you think this would be comfortable post op, or would some that is loose and flowy be better?

Four Weeks Post Op W/pictures :-)
thinmymind replied to kansasgirl's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I can really see it! Great job! -
Glad to hear! I wish you continued good luck!
-
Well, that says it all - when were you able to drive? I mean short distances - 30 minutes or less.
-
The only person that knows is my husband. I am happy to have found this site for support. Also happy that I found 2 other people with my surgeon on my date! Am looking forward to meeting them on June 14th!

Online, I usually go to CalorieKing.com. They also have a software program you can try/buy. Also, there is a book. I am not 100% if fresh individual items are in there or if it is more geared toward fast food/chain type of restaurants. Here is the link for the book. http://www.amazon.com/CalorieKing-Calorie-Carbohydrate-Counter-2012/dp/1930448368/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1338381830&sr=8-1

I am scheduled for June 14th, but I ordered the Unjury Chicken Soup today to have for when I get home. What acid reducer are finding is helpful? -
Dr. Kelly Calling In 15Min! What Do I Ask?
thinmymind posted a topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Wow, so I just sent my questionnaire to Omar last Thursday and he just called. He said Dr. Kelly is going to be calling in 1-15min! I wish I had some questions prepared! Anyone around? -
Dr. Kelly Calling In 15Min! What Do I Ask?
thinmymind replied to thinmymind's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Yes, update! I scheduled my surgery for June 14th, maybe I should start one! -
Thanks, Sharon! Glad to hear from someone with the same surgeon!
-
Where are the incisions? I am starting to pack and am trying to avoid things that will touch them.
-
That is great to hear - I just scheduled mine yesterday! I am so excited!
-
I haven't but my husband dreamt last night that Shane Victorino had the surgery with my surgeon (Dr. Kelly). He thought, well, if he is good enough for a professional baseball player, then I guess he is good enough for me!

Great job! -
I just scheduled my surgery for June 14th yesterday! I must have a few things for the last time! Like this one sushi roll that will not be a part of my diet after. Also, I would love a risotto!
