  1. My goodness. They are pushing Lapbands like crazy. If I hear one more True Result commercial...eeek
  2. Dr. Lopez said canadians and americans rely too much on pains meds never was in labor 20 hours and pushed out a big baby. Pain med? Oh hell yes
  3. I chose dr. e. Ortiz. He trained under dr. lopez and has a clean record . no one has said a bad word about him or his company a lighter me. Please correct me if there is more info that i'm unaware of.
  4. I heard that wls causes a lot of divorce because its digs up anxieties and fears. Case in point My 600 lb life. Melissas husb started cheating on her when she lost weight.
  5. There is a Tria and Silk'n home laser available. I gave away my nono...more like ohno. I want to try one.
  6. Um perhaps for some. But do not judge those of us with suicidal ideation and schizophrenic tendancies. Psych disease is managed not cured.
  7. I'm pre-op. All I'm going to say is "I went to Mexico". Period.
  8. Perhaps a "Food Confessions" thread.
  9. Yes Georgia. There is am emf risk with electric blankets Please use caution and do the research. Thank you for the information.
  10. Tip: preheat that electric blanket before you hop in.
  11. Great thread. I too, watched the series of My 600 lb. Life. I was especially interested in the mindset and enabling of these people. When Melissa lost weight, her husband began cheating on her. Talk about enabling. She got strong and took care of her daughter. Eventually she got a job with the bariatric surgeon as a patient liason. Bravo Melissa.
  12. So much for indecision. The airfare to cancun is very reasonable. Tempting. now I'm looking at my options in Cancun. anybody have a good doctor to recommend? What about dr. Sergio Verboone?
  13. it seems that they don't do sleeves in the US they seem to prefer a bypass or a band. wanna come with me to Puerto Vallarta to have a sleeve? jk
  14. Please keep us updated in your journey. I am researching Dr. E Ortiz
  15. I am surprised by the mention of doctors picking their patients up @ the airport. That stuff would never happen up north
  16. So I look up the cost and, guess what? $3,500 to $8000. Same as a cost to go to Mexico. I already had braces ( the icky all metal headgear kind) So now its time to change the rest. (no reason those braces are that spendy)
  17. No. The girls get neatly tucked in our under arms (joke)
  18. Love tuna. No cooking. Just open. And keep the cat away.
