    Early September Spitfires

    I got sleeved with Almanza on the 7th. I am doing great. My nausea is down. My stitches are out and my kids told me yesterday that I look 'sort of' tinnier! I still get this heavy rock in my chest when I eat too much or too fast or the wrong stuff. I throw it all out and am back to eating the 'right' stuff but slowly. It will take a while to get the hang of it but so far so good. I have to find a scale. My BMI was 32 so I am concentrating more on dress size rather than weight loss! Rocking my sleeve.
  2. Yes I saw all of them. Am back in the states now and navigating my food dom... no easy task but water is safe and am drinking lots of it. No pains when I gulp the drinks and no nausea!!!

  3. Thank you for the reply :-) Did you see Fendo, LaTasha or Ally?

  4. Recovery going well. going for my leak test in a few mins. You are in good hands!

  5. Hope your recovery is going well. I will be at the Clinic in the morning. Probably just missing you.

  6. Thanks GardenDiva3. Glad to see you are recovering well!

  7. Good luck Lady! I'll be thinking about you! Reb

  8. Christy - I blogged about the logistics at Jerusalem clinic and Recovery House. Go to Gardendiva3's blog and read it so you know what to expect about the area etc.

    Today is the day!!!

    Hope to be where you are now on the 7th! Congratulations.
  10. Hi Ally. I have a low BMI (bariatric surgery qualification) too. Not in the 200lb region and also want to lose 50lbs. So you are not alone. Do you know the procedure you are having? Lapband or VSG?

  11. Buckeye Girl,

    I will be leaving Mexico on the 10th. Hope we get to meet each other one way or other!

  12. Christy, will you be leaving the recovery house on the 11th? I will be there for surgery on the 10th :)

    31 BMI

    BMI 31.5 but am only 5'3" so look fatter. Have lost weight before, I exercise moderately and eat sensibly but my weight just doesn't budge so VSG for me. I want to use Dr. Almanza in Mexico does anyone have a direct contact? I have read enough on the forum to make up my mind and want to go this route. Thanks for letting me know that I am not alone!
