Susan what I have learned so far from VST and the admins is that you SHOULD be deleting the entire threads of slander that you allowed the original poster to start and then retract. In the process, VST has allowed a reputable Dr to be slandered Shame on You.

I was very much alone in TJ and never had Dr Luna act inappropriate. The original poster needs mental help. I also know the backstory on her and the gaggle of friends who were at first defending her since we were all in a small FB group together for a short time before I left due to their craziness. SEEK MENTAL HELP This entire thing has been an attention heat seeking rocket. If the OP (I know exactly who you are) did have consensual sex on Day 4 after suffering with surgical bloat like the rest of us (I nearly burst out laughing from the visual), then you attempting to destroy a man's career is some serious **** Karma for you. you should be ashamed of yourself.

my US fill Dr had told me back in February of this year that the lapband has a 50% success rate for people who lose HALF of what they want to lose before it fails. Sign me up as well. I have spent a small fortune on the lapband, fills, unfills, upper GIs, fluoroscopies and finally removal. I could have paid for the sleeve 4x

I like your style Maharet!

I contacted his coordinator directly through his website. I already had surgery - May 10th...extremely pleased and happy with my choice. It is unfortunate because I am quite sure Dr Kelly is losing clients due to poor service.

I attempted to get information about the sleeve out of this group of people and it took them THREE weeks to even get back to me. At that point I had already selected my surgeon. Unfortunately Dr Kelly is probably losing potential patients because of the poor service.

I will also add that Dr Fernando Garcia has some great YouTube videos about his team, surgery, etc. I was so impressed after watching the videos, that is what sealed it for me. Just go to YouTube and input "Dr Fernando Garcia"...you will also see "Ready4AChange" come up

Cindy is right. You must find something YOU enjoy doing. Exercise should not be a chore. I love the following: Bikram Yoga Kundalini Yoga Running Weight lifting Pilates barre method and my new thing I am going to begin once I hit 20 more lbs gone is Tai Kwan Do...I have always wanted to learn and my girlfriend just won the Louisiana State Championship last month...she is my motivation to try it.

There are two different Dr Garcia's. I went to Dr Fernando Garcia who uses Oasis/Florence Hospital Ready 4A Change was the coordinator team I used (Alma) The entire team spoke near perfect english, the hospital care was better than some I have had in the states and I had three leak tests over the two day stay before moving to the Marriott. I have now sent two of my friends there, one is getting surgery tomorrow. He was my support person last month and he was so impressed he immediately filled out paperwork for his sleeve. That is a testament to the quality of care you will receive from Ana, Alma, Dr Garcia, Dr Luna and the rest of the team.

I have also struggled with being exhaustion Staci. I am now in Week 5 post op and am finally starting to snap out of it. I actually went to the gym today

I just had my daughter take my 30 day post op photos and compared that to my pre op photos. It was depressing and made me realize I still have along way to go. However, I also need to be kind to myself and take this one day at a time. I did get my rear end into the gym today for the first time in god only knows how long. I walked/lightly jogged for 55 minutes and burned 325 calories. Looking at fat photos of myself is clearly a motivator.

I have had NO energy to think of getting in a gym until this week. I am now Week 5 post-op and today I went to my gym and I got on the treadmill for an hour. I even did a light jog at 4.4 speed. I feel CHARGED!! Get this party continuing. This is the first week I actually have begun to feel normal and have some energy

I would love some support. Today was my FIRST day back in the gym in a very long time. MFP Name: Lisamba09

I honestly do not believe there is any such sign. I have been to TJ over 5x in the past few years and have never seen such a thing. Our state department would not allow that type of fear mongering against a country who we do trade with. *smh*
