  1. I am hoping to schedule a VSG in March/May/June 2013. I have read everything that I have been able to find. I am confident with Dr.Kelly and feel better that he has trained in the US. I would love to hear other peoples stories as well as find a sleeve buddy!!! Did you go through Omar? Also, did anyone have a post op diet? and did you have a drain? I've read that at one hospital, Dr.Kelly would use a drain, at another he didn't. When did you go back to work? I have 4 small children and am a student so I have plenty that needs to be done. I am also thinking of traveling without my husband, due to it being very hard to find someone to stay with the kids for that long.. If any of you have done that, how quickly were you able to contact family post op? Did anyone call family for you? I may take a surgery buddy but that is undecided at this point. I will be flying from texas. I can't wait to get started!! Also, how many of you have told friends and family? I have some friends that are genetically gifted and weigh 110 regardless of what they eat. I plan on telling my closest friends but no one else.. I also have family that would have nothing but negative things to say about going to Mexico and how I should just try another diet or excercise more.....Thanks for all advice and answers!!!

    Dr.kelly Questions

    Thanks Jessie!! I too have a lower BMI 33-34 depending on the day lol. But I have been higher. I am so glad to hear that you had a good experience :-) I would love to keep in touch!! I have been wondering if I will have to take a 2nd trip to Mexico to have loose skin removed etc... i haven't been able to find much on what to expect with wls with a lower BMI as far as treatments down the road. I would love to not need ant nipping or clipping but we will see.

    Dr.kelly Questions

    I am looking forward to doing more things with my kids as well.I keep going around in circles being scared then getting excited the getting scared again.. I have never been to Mexico and the thought of going anywhere especially (possibly) without my husband is scary!!!!! I have read some good things about Dr.Lopez too :-)
