  1. Many State side Doctor are not comfortable with mexico surgery with some good reason but mostly from ignorance. You should consult with your PCP and be ready to swap him/her for someone else if they are not supportive. Good Luck
  2. Had surgery with Dr Illian back in April, down 60lbs, my only regret is not doing this sooner. He has the best bedside manner ever. If you are debating Dr Illian stop thinking and go for it.
  3. Had my surgery April 10 wity Dr illian, no issue at all down 52 lbs. best value out there
  4. And " he said I was cute and touch my shoulder" is not an evidence just a doc/guy trying to boost your ego so you can refer more people
  5. I still don't see any evidence of any wrong doing, just hearsay and personal experiences that has nothing to do with this case . anybody has any shred of evidence ? we have a right to know
  6. If he had sex with her he would be wrong but she denied it happened, bipolar is a powerful thing that can cause you to make up stories . If you have any evidence that can shed light on this case please show it or stop destroying the career of a man that may or may not been guilty.
  7. Lucerna is beautiful , my room at Florence was adequate, clean and comfortable , the nurse took good care < I would recommend and Dr Illian is a great choice
  8. they are both excellent , but Dr Illian is about 700 cheaper, that could pay your air fare maybe your companion if you have one. I had Dr Illian April 10 down about 55 lbs, no issue
  9. Sleeved April 10 , best $4000 I ever spent
  10. Glad you are making the move. We cant wait to welcome you to the loser's bench
  11. Not if you have a sleeve. Even without a sleeve it will be very hard, Many cultures in human histories eat mostly protein and they do just fine. Use your brain power for other productive thoughts
  12. I enjoy regular banana popsicle from walmart 24pks less than $3 . Down 43 lbs in 5 weeks . Each is about 50 cals. Everything in moderation
  13. I had both the sleeve and gallbladder removal . I think after watching the video I could probably assist in a similar surgery lol
  14. I would love to hear the full story of Peter,is he on these board
  15. Went alone , no issue I slept peacefully
  16. I got a copy of the surgery and watch the whole thing. Really weird watching my own inside. I am glad I have this....did anybody else watched their's and how did u feel about it.
  17. I am also in atlanta, had surgery on april 10th $4000 with Dr Ilian @ Oasis hospital. Got a direct round ticket flight from delta $270. Same day surgery and I stayed @ Lucena hotel. down 44 ponds and feeling great.
  18. The nurses were very nice , little english, getting IV in was an hassle just like in the US; been dehydrated made it worse . It took 4 nurses to get it in. Room was very nice, big glass wall that open to the downtown presented a beautiful view. I had no issue with temperature or noise. I got meds on time , nurses showed when I pushed call button. 19 inch flat screen on the wall provided all the entertainment with EDGE movie channel. private bathroom was clean . I would recommend . Stayed in Lucerna Hotel, choose to leave early after one night. I had no need to see the doctor but he visited anyways. I mostly stayed in watch TV and skype with family back at home.
  19. Since you are in Cali I can only imagine the price ....you might need to take a second mortgage
  20. What exactly would you like to know ? Nice room attentive nurse, extra sleeping for guest. I think there are some pictures here posted by other members
  21. I am glad things are progressing, get your sleeve so you could join us here on the loser's bench. I am sorry if I came a lil too brash with my initial comment I have a days .
  22. let the inner fat girl out make it up later
  23. Truth can be hard sometimes, you did not gain weight due to been in " starvation mode" you gain weight due to eating too much of the wrong food, think slider food . If you are not truthful to yourself not even sleeve will help you. Good luck
