  2. I'd love to know more about this Dr and see your pics for sure.
  3. I regret it. I have lost more weight on my own in the past than with this "tool". I don't eat bad things, only protein, zero carbs, low calories. I have NO HUNGER at all. I like that part but my scale is not moving. I went from 313 to 290 and then the scale jumped to 295 over night and won't move. I'll now have to drag my 6 kids to a gym so I can work out to try to break this stall and feel like I haven't just wasted 6000.00 dollars

  5. Don't beat yourself up. My surgery is on the 27th and I haven't followed my liquid diet one day yet. I end up eating an egg or some chicken. Or a whole avocado like last night. Some Dr;s don;t have a 2 week pre op diet, someone told me today that she had to eat yogurt and drink water for 3 days before the surgery and that was it.

    It's amazing that these Dr's are so different with their pre op diets. I'm on a 2 week full liquid (protein shakes included) and one day clear liquid, the day before the surgery.
  8. I'm an RN. I have never experienced a clot, but have had patients with clots. Take the filter!

  12. I chose Dr Quinones. I'm going on May 27, 2013. Excited but nervous. Can't wait to lose this weight.
  13. I am leaving on May 26 and still don't have the passport. My BC and DL match with the same name. My friend that is going with me also doesn't have a passport.
  14. I'm going through rushmypassport.com. I am finishing all the paperwork today and have to go get my photo taken. I was not aware that you could go, with only having PROOF of application. That's interesting.
  15. Hi ya'll, new here. Starting pre-op diet today. What made you choose Dr Garcia? I have been researching Almanza and Aceves? I'm in the beginning of this, don't even have a passport, but I'm rushing it. I'll have to look into Dr Garcia.
