Rox posted a topic in Mexico & Self-Pay Weight Loss Surgery
I am going to be on my way to Mexicali, and surgery with Dr. Aceves. That being said, I read part of whatever little dust-up happened over someone coming home un-sleeved. From what I read, this was her own choice. My choice is to go forward with my trip and I will ask about his complications. There are thousands of threads on these forums and I know (even though I may not have much of a life)that I have not had time to go through all the complications, just as some people do not share their "easy" outcomes - so that others don't get the wrong idea. Could it just be possible that all the people who had complications did not post their outcomes?? -

Just keep watching him - actions speak louder than words. However, I would try to talk to him - if he's still neglecting you, you may want to call him on it.

Just wait until Chris Christie's band fails - VSG for everyone!!

gmanbat - Love your writing, I am choosing to tell most people after the fact, my surgery is Tuesday with a very reputable surgeon in Mexico. The reason I haven't told people before is, this was a tough enough decision in the first place. I got my family on board, but it does not mean that I am completely without fear. My husband has reminded me several times that I do not have to do this. I can change my mind anytime. Right now, I am going back and forth between fear of doing this, and fear of NOT doing this. But once it's done I will tell everyone!!

Way to Go!! -
I'll be right there with you on the 30th - walk, walk, sip,sip,

My post-op instructions say that your diet should be 7-800 calories, 70-75 grams of protein, 40-60 grams of carbs, and 20-30 grams of fat - that's what is recommended for the first 6 months. The primary source of nutrition should be protein.

one way to get in extra protein....

gmanbat - bowl of cereal?? You mean that i'll be able to have cereal again??!! -
I'm right behind you on Tues., and yes, Iam looking forward to it!

Please see your surgeon on stuff like this - if your worried, see him/her and get an answer. The worst thing that can happen is that it's nothing. At least you'll know one way or another.
