    August sleevers?

    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?

  12. 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

    Pre op

    They are called Lean Shakes at GNC and they are great!
  14. Hello North_Chicky! I will be at Florence as well having surgery on Aug 23rd! Maybe we will run in to one another

    Pre op

    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!

    A week away....

    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.

  18. The closer I get to my surgery date the more nervous I become. I'm hope I can stick to the Pre-Op diet!
  19. My mother is going with me. My surgery is scheduled for August 23 with Dr. Garcia at Florence Oasis
  20. 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
