    Wow, you sound jealous. Get over yourself. A good surgeon looks at all the options, and makes the decision. I have a question for you? How could you let yourself get so obese that you would need the surgery anyways? Maybe you should stop telling all of us what is right and not right and be happy for someone that is trying to change their lives.

    Post op updates from Dr Lopez surgery in PV.
    To quote my wife: the whole experience felt like we were in a soap opera and the whole time we were treated as celebrities. From the time we got picked up from the airport, staying at an ocean view resort and spa and being waited on at a brand new and spotless hospital. All the surgeons were handsome and the nurses were gorgeous. It truly felt like a spa vacation. The trade off for not being able to swim and soak up the sun was well worth the on-going weight loss and how hot our bodies are going to be in a few month. Loved it loved it loved it!!! So excited about whats ahead. Totally recommend Dr Lopez in PV!!!

    No not at all. That is standard. You only need one. I did have gas pains after the surgery for a few hours that night and the pain meds helped, but the best thing you can do to alleviate the gas pains is to get up and walk as soon as you can after the surgery. That helps more than the pain meds The next day, I was feeling much much better.
    Just pack lightly, with loose fitting clothes. My wife came with me, she had the surgery as well. We were both not as bad off as some people here, both just over 30bmi, but still very glad we had the surgery. You will do fine. Mexican hospitals in my opinion are better and nicer than the ones here. Brush up on your spanish though. The nurses didnt speak alot of english. But everyone was very caring and nice. We loved being in PV. Wonderful city, and no reason not to feel not safe. The drug violence is overhyped, and honestly your more at risk in this country.

    My wife and I second and third it. Very impressed. I think their patient coordinator could use some help driving people around, but other than that, all good. My wife has lost a total of 14 lbs since the start of the pre op diet and post surgery, and I have lost 24, and that includes the 12 lbs lost since the surgery a week ago. Hoping that I can start eating more soon, as it gets alittle frustraiting at times.
