  1. I crossed the border with my birth certificate and drivers license with no problem
  2. I have absolutely no appetite what so ever. The last thing I ate was 2 spoons of chicken broth, 1/2 Popsicle and a sip of water @ 7pm last night. I'm still stuffed! Does anyone else feel full all the time?

  9. I'm going to be sleeved on August 23rd by Dr. Garcia!
  10. You can go online and order them. Buy one get one half off
  11. North_Chicky Dr. Garcia diet consist of a protein shake for breakfast, a shake for lunch an salad with a protein for dinner and an additional shake if needed. May take Metamucil for hunger. Also he wants you to start clear liquids 3 days before surgery and take a laxitive of choice as well
  12. They are called Lean Shakes at GNC and they are great!
  13. Hello North_Chicky! I will be at Florence as well having surgery on Aug 23rd! Maybe we will run in to one another
  14. Anyone having surgery with Dr. Garcia on August 23rd with Dr. Garcia? I will be in TJ on August 22nd! Would love to have a sleeve buddy ????
  15. Good Question! I have to start Dr. Garcia's diet next month. I found the Lean Shakes at GNC to be really tasty. They are 170 calories, 25 grams of protein, 2 grams of sugar and 6 total carbs. It keeps you full a long time and comes in chocolate, strawberry and vanilla bean! They come 4 in a pack for about $10!
  16. He works out of Mi Doctor and Florence Oasis. At first they had me at Mi Doctor but I read so many wonderful things about Florence like the great equipment, larger hospital, more English speaking nurses and nicer rooms etc. so I switched.
  17. Great ! I will be there from the 22nd - 26th ????
  18. My mother is going with me. My surgery is scheduled for August 23 with Dr. Garcia at Florence Oasis
  19. His name is Dr. Fernando Garcia Govea. He is with Ready 4 a Change in Tijuana Mexico. His deposit at the time I booked was $500 dollars and the total cost of my surgery was $5200 because my BMI was over 54. If it was under 54 it would have been $4700. He has a pre op diet requirements and it goes by your BMI. I paid the down payment and the rest is due at the time you have surgery payable in a cashiers check or credit card. Hope this helps
  20. What day are you going in August? I'm going on August 23rd and looking for a sleeve buddy ????
