The original post could have been me writing it! Same EXACT story but I had mine on May 10, 2013. Glad you are doing great.
P.S. ditto on the Eduardo comment too (lol)

Actually I haven't work out one day yet !! I know that bad but I plan on starting this week. But I'm still down 42 pounds only 58 more till my first goal .

Here goes my journey...........
Me and my husband drove form Las Vegas to San Diego where we were picked up by Ricardo( alighterme me new driver). We had to wait an extra hour at the airport cause it took him a little longer then expected to get across the border( wasn't his faught tho). Ricardo is very nice and he drove us straight to the Marriott hotel and got us checked in. The Marriott is really nice and clean. After getting settled in we went to the restaurant to eat. I didn't like the broth but my husband loved his meal, he has steak:)
The next day Abraham pick us up at 8:00 sharp to take us to the hospital . Once there I was checked into my room to relax before the testing began. I was then visited by Dr Lopez and Eduardo . Dr Lopez sat with me and explain the whole procedure. He advise that I will be given a cd of my surgery and All my lap paperwork to take back to the states. . Eduardo asked if I had any concern and he answered all my question also ( p.s. he is fine ..... Lol). Then i meet Dr Ortiz very friendly man, who advise me that he will be helping with my surgery. Finally had my rest ran ( EKG and blood test ) went into surgery around 12:30 . All I remember was the lady giving me a shot saying it will make me dizzy and next thing you know I wake up and I'm all done. When I woke up all the way I was in PAiN. I walked a little and spent most of the day sleeping . They gave me pain meds to help he sleep through the night .
The next day I felt so much better !!!!!!! But I was starving. I had to drink the blue stuff( It was so nasty) then I drank this white stuff and did the X-ray to make sure no leaks . Then finally I was giving apple juice. The apple juice felt like heaven... Lol I'm now just relaxing in my room watching tv and drinking juice. Tomorrow going to the Marriott and I getting this IV taken out.
To be continue ..... If any specific question please asked......

So I finally made it home and I felling great ! Gonna just take things one day at a time and look forward to this new beginning . About to eat me some Jello and call it a night! Thanks to all my sleeve buddies that wished me well wishes.
Oh yeah .... Just a head up when they take the drain out it feels so weird... Lol
Also when i went through the border I didn't have a passport I just used my ID and birth certificate

I'm SLEEVED!!!!!!!!!! Everything went well yesterday. I was in a lot of pain afterward but feeling much better today. Dr Lopez and Ortiz are very nice . The nurses at the hospital don't speck much English but I download a translator on my phone ( very useful). Can't wait to get some broth today as I am so Hungry. I do my leak test later today so I will keep everyone posted.. ........ New beginnings:)

Wow, I don't think she posted asking if she should eat fast food. I love when people have to add their two cents to point out others faults.

Dehydration it no joke !!!! To all my pre- op sleeve it is so important to get fluids in. It's really hard in the beginning but try hard . Getting me a couple of IV bags and I get to go home

Congrats to you... You'll be skinny in time for summer
