I was a vegan prior to surgery. Could not do it after. Was eating eggs and cheese in the early stages because you can't eat raw veggies or nuts or quinoa so I felt I had no choice. Even with that my body was craving meat. I gave in and started eating meat. I try not to beat myself up over it.

Not a question on this topic but I'm having trouble following who is who. Are some people being called by their real name and not screen name?

I think her name says it all

Hi. I just got sleeved last week so no transformation for me yet. Im not sure how to ask so I just will. I don't know if there is a photo section but id love to see your before and after

I fly out on the 2nd. Surgery with Dr Joya in Peurto Vallarta

When are you going to Mexico?

Ive heard some people use Flintstone complete chewable vitamins. Anyone do this?

What am I gonna do without sushi!!

Hi RJ im new to the forum. Getting sleeved in Mexico on feb 4th. Im so sorry what happened to you. Who was your surgeon?

Ok ok. Lol. I knew all that I guess I was hoping everyone would say ya one is fine, go for it. Lol. Ill skip it. Everyone is right and im a nervous nelly too. Dont want to take the chance for something to go wrong. Especially in Mexico. Thanks everyone for the reality check! !

So im not a big drinker at all. I Like margaritas occasionally. Im going to mexico for surgery. Im asking for honest thoughts on having a real Mexican margarita the day before surgery.

How do you handle the spicy soup. I love curry broth but not sure I could handle the spiciness.

Thank you!

I like those ideas. Im trying to figure out now what I will eat when I get to that point.

I dont mind sharing at all. I was thinking of more of a personal journal. Like scrapbooking or something along those lines.

Haha. Love the milf. My kids tell me thier friends think im hot. Lol. Really? Wait till I lose this extra 80. Lol

Hi all. Im getting sleeved on February 4th and im trying to figure out a creative way to document my journey. Id love any suggestions. Jaclyn

I agree. I have said that before and I know it was just my own insecurity.

Go on you tube and look them up. Lots of videos on each doctor. I am very secure in my choice of Dr.Joya. Go on Dr.Joya website and call them. Gerald is the coordinator. Very nice. They are great at answering questions.

Research shows many many doctors are not doing the band anymore. It does have a high failure rate and high complication rate.

Hi I will be sleeved in Peurto Villarta Mexico on 2/4/14 with Dr Joya at Amerimed Hospital. He also trained 8n the states.

Thank you!
