Hello all,
I had the sleeve in Dec of last year. My boobs are a size DD. And pretty pitiful looking right now. I need some advice about which doctors are good, type of surgery you had, healing time and what to expect when going to Mexico to have it done. Thank you for any and all info you can share. Tina

For my lower body lift, butt lift and breast lift, I stayed 7 days in recovery with. 24 nursing care, but for my thigh and arm lift, I spent one night in recovery and 13 days at the hotel. I felt I wanted extra recovery time, before I went home, therefore stayed longer. I wanted to avoid using my arms or my legs, but I could take care of my self, plus the doctor and his assistant came to visit me daily. The full service hotel had room service, so I was very well fed and taken care of. I stayed so long, everyone was sad to see me go, plus I made so many new friends. Everyone there is so generous and helpful. You will not have to worry about your luggage. IT will be carried for you. The airport shuttle service, which the doctor arranges, will be there to pick you up and take you back to the airport. You never have to carry your luggage, even when you get to the airport. Tell them you need a wheelchair, and they will carry and do everything for you until you reach your destination city.
I totally want a breast lift. Can you share any comments or recommendations picture and pricing ?!

I was sleeved by Dr. Soong on Dec 23, 2013. Been going to LVA on Rainbow and lost over 35 pound. Started soft foods and I take two small bites and I'm really full I burp a a lot when I'm full. Don't find to many people from Vegas here glad to find this thread.
Hi there buddy, I was sleeved 12/23 by Dr Soong too

I just got sleeved 12/23 but I could not believe how loose my watch got. It's a fairly heavy piece n I love it to death. But it slid all over my wrist and to the side that it was actually a nuisance. I took it off until a later point when I can take a while link or two out lol. Lost 17lbs so far

Hi TahoeDoll, I'm doing good much better then the first two weeks which were very hard for me! With drinks all I drink is Water, Decaf green tea and a G2 sometimes. Luckily I have been able to drink liquid very easily since my surgery! With foods I have tried puréed refried Beans and puréed deviled egg mixture did not sit well in my stomach! Things I have tried and work well in my stomach are mashed potatoes, roast beef hash, puréed turkey chili, applesauce, SF pudding, and puréed chicken but I did not like the taste of the chicken at all! Tonight I am trying puréed crab meat and salmon hopefully they sit well!! I'll let you know how it goes! How have you been?? Are you still on all liquids?
Hi Zoe,
I'm on puréed as well. Tried tuna and crackers, mashed potato, egg salad but I only get about 1/4 cup down. Tried some chicken we did in the crockpot and that was yummy. Retried beans and cottage cheese as well. So it's been good. How was the crab n salmon. I treated myself to about 10 salad shrimp yesterday. Yummy!!

Hi Zoeonelove how are you doing these days? How or better what do you eat or love these days?

I have a question. Were any of you told you could not use a Straw and if so why not?!
-
Lol I got cravings every day but it gets better as you can slowly expand on your spectrum of foods you can eat. I would L-O-V-E a cracker but that's out of the question right now lol. Some savory Soup like egg drop soup will do the trick or refried Beans when the time comes. Hang in there - heal!!!! You will eat normal food again !!!

You could call your PCP and get a B-12 shot. I finally got one yesterday. I was feeling draggy this week, upped my Protein at the advice of my NUT but still went in and got a shot.
I bought sublingual B12 last night at Walmart to try and see if that helps.

Dr Soong did mine 12/23 and my hubby's on 12/17. Hubby got moved to soft / puréed foods as of this week. I have tried cottage cheese and tolerate it well so I eat some too.

Hey everybody. Dec23rd Sleever here. Making my way through head hunger, nasty tasting Protein Shakes and salt cravings. Super excited to have it done and looking forward to the success to come once I can up my liquids n Protein. I can only get about 30oz and 30grms down right now. 2014 here I some. !!! Happy New Me!!! Lol. Hi. Dec 23 sleever here as well. Totally get your craving for salty things. I am not interested in the broths at this point, yuck. But I did want some egg drop Soup. I was feeling good on clear liquids so asked the docs office for their blessing to progress to full liquids. Since my soft egg yolk (hey, I read it's a full liquid) fiasco yesterday (that was so satisfying...for a few hours before my tummy got sour) I decided to ask the doc before eating anything I am unsure of. Hey everybody. Dec23rd Sleever here. Making my way through head hunger, nasty tasting protein shakes and salt cravings. Super excited to have it done and looking forward to the success to come once I can up my liquids n protein. I can only get about 30oz and 30grms down right now. 2014 here I some. !!! Happy New Me!!! Lol. I asked them if I could have egg drop soup. They said yes and man, it is hitting the spot! It's salty, would that be of interest if the doc ok'ed it? When do you move through the next stages? Btw, if you like chocolate I recommend the Myology Chocolate Whey on Puritains Pride. Got it B1G1 and it tastes like chocolate milk when you mix it with milk. Love it before and after surgery. :-P Mmmm. How are you feeling?
Hey there. Feeling good still getting tired easily. Where do you get the shake you are talking about? Sounds delish. Struggling a little with the intake but it get better everyday. Took GasX in the hospital as I saw hubby struggle through the pain n gas and stuff. Felt 100% better after surgery. Looking for a buddy through the next month and egg drop soup sounds to die for. I been cleared to eat what I can tolerate and to try small doss first. Had some cottage cheese last night w avocado. Only 2 - 4 super small spoonfuls but it's soo good and I HATED cottage cheese before. Lol thanks for your input and suggestions

Wow you look great and yes all stitches look very professionally and smooth n straight. I'm not sure if you can share the cost of the breast surgery itself or if it was part if the package. Congrats on that new body suit. Can't wait to alter mine lol.
