  1. Dr. Lopez using a brand new hospital in PV. I have only heard rave reviews from it.
  2. @ Stickks My my are you saying our coordinator Janese is telling us things that are not true? Or no longer true or whatever,,,,not that it really matters I can afford to pay for broth, Gatorade, Popsicles. But I guess we are all just trying to be prepared for everything and anything that may arise. I need to ask some more questions I guess. Makes me wonder what else is being told to us that is not correct. I wish I could speak to someone who is on site. Instead of a coordinator who is in California or where ever they are out of. I am a Lil discouraged.
  3. That will work. Sounds like you have had a great experience this far. Keep us updated in the days to come. And congrats on the beginning of your journey!!!
  4. Was there wifi at the hospital? Wondering if my Spanish app on the iPad would come in handy.....
  5. Glad to hear your doing well,,,keep us updated.
  6. Dr Guillermo Alvarez's "Successful weight loss with the gastric sleeve" will tell you/her anything you wanna know.
  7. @stickks she Is probably referring to the size of the liver and that has more to do with the pre op diet not the last 3 day cleanse. Actually since they are not opening up the intestines there is no way to tell, but this Dr has his reasons for making you do the 3 day cleanse. Not sure what that is cause some doc's don't require it. Really I think it is just the doc's preference.
  8. Again you look wonderful!! Gives me hope. Your husband will get used to the reactions your getting. I am sure he is sooo proud of you and for you. Continue on your blessed journey.
  9. So if you don't mind me asking what was your starting stats::: hgt, wgt, and BMI? And by the way you look awesome!!! Only asking because my BMI is low and would like some feed back on someone who started in the same situation.
  10. @stickks one day at a time. You will do great. Prayers are with you.
  11. There are Ronda, Sandy and Janese. And may be others. Janese is my coordinator for Dr. Lopez as well. Having it done in Puerto Vallrta with him and his wife. The coordinators for a lighter me have been awesome answering all my questions so far.
  12. I am also booked with Dr. Lopez in puerto Vallarta. Only not until Jan. I would also like to hear anyone's experience who is willing to share on the facility and the experience in its entirety of going to Puerto Vallarta. How was the care and experience with the doctors staff there. How was the hotel? How are your guests treated. Any regrets or difficulties. Just any info anyone can give. I have seen soooo many reviews on the experience in TJ with Dr. Lopez but very few in Puerto Vallarta.
  13. Aprilsolea can you give us a run down of your experience and would love to hear how your doing now....how were the facilities in Puerto Vallarta? How was the trip home?
  14. Well I had to schedule mine in Jan in order to have time to save the money and cause I already had time scheduled at work to be off for most of Jan.......So Jan 17 2013 will be my new beginning in Puerto Vallarta with Dr. Lopez. I am so excited and anxious and it can't get here soon enough!!!!!!
