    Preop diet

    I am on day 2 of the preop diet with surgery on the 21st. I purchased Isopure Protein powder from GNC. I have Mango/Peach (I think it has peach). It doesn't taste too bad. I am also drinking Pure Protein drinks from costco. At dinner I get to have a small portion of meat and vegetables. Dinner has never been so satisfying. Good luck, Jay

    Cost of Surgery

    I am paying $4,650 next week in TJ, Mexico with Dr. Alejandro Lopez. It covers everything including the hospital and hotel stay. On top of that I have to pay for airfaire to San Diego for my buddy and I. I'm having surgery on the 21st.
  6. Day 1 of the preop diet. It comes with a lot of anxiety as I am leaving the comfort of food behind.

    Just got to San diego

    Keep us posted on how the process unfolds for you. Good luck:)
  8. I have a BMI of 35 and I am having the surgery. I have tried for years to lose weight and am unable to do it. I'm looking forward to the high possibility of not feeling hungry and craving food after surgery. I do, however, have diabetes and related complications.
  9. What has your experience been with Dr. Alejandro Lopez?

  13. I am also pre-op but my friend who had VSG and went from 320 to 180lbs told me he doesn't crave food anymore and in fact he forgets to eat.
  14. Thank you. I am on hold with them as I type. Good luck with surgery.
