  1. Thanks! I was just looking up your Dr, and sent him a message. I can't figure out how to use realself, lol. I will check the other site you recommended aswell!!
  2. Had my sleeve done in Nov at the Obesity control Center in Tijuana. It was an awesome experience and I am currently down 101lbs. I am getting close to my goal and am looking into plastics for my tummy, thighs and breast. OCC is connected to the Ariel Center and I am wondering if anyone has gone there and what their experience and results were like?

    Doing it now aswell, juT finished week 1 and it helped brake my stall and lose 3# but had emergency gallbladder surgery yesterday so won't be doing it again for a week or so
  4. I had my sleeve at OCC in TJ MXN, and was wondering if anyone had plastics there, or the Ariel center I think is what it's called.

    Surgery was today. There were 5 people here today, 2 of which are with me. So far we are all doing good, in and out of sleep. Feeling really thirsty, but I am trying to sip and sip. Pretty soar on the left hand side and in the back.

    She told us to continue doing what we are doing. We just find it odd and were wondering if maybe something was lost in translation. I am just worried the stomachs won't be empty. Surgery is Monday, can I eat today and tmrw?

    To those that have already been sleeved, did you have a 2 day pro op all liquid diet? Or were you still on your 3 protein drinks and green veggies?

    She approved the nectar and then the GNC lady compared the 2 and said that they have been working with a WLS co ordinater in San Antonio and this is what they recommend. I do find that occ really recommends their brand, but from my understanding there isn't much of a difference

    I am from Alberta and I am using Nectar and GNC total lean pre op. I am hoping tonise themPost op aswell, but I am not sure they will allow me too. So far no one see much of a difference in the protein shakes in use now and the OCC brand, so I am not sure. As for vitamin I take two woman's once a day, 1500 of B12 and 5000 much of Biotin.
  13. When do you leave? We arrive on the 24th for surgery on the 25th.

    What was the ab binder and bp cuff thermometer for? Can you post the nutrient info of the Enspira and vitamins on here? I don't think I will be using them, but I want to find something similar here.
