Hi. Can someone explain to me the tuna thing? The thought of pureed tuna grosses me out. Lol

Thank you :-)

I couldn't fight my insurance. I have no secondary conditions and have only 80-90 pounds to lose. Please don't judge my decision to have surgery. didn't make it lightly. I think most people would think im crazy to have surgery with so "little" to lose.

Im gonna have to plan. I don't drink milk. I could probably use rice milk though. Yes makes sense. Thanks

I don't eat eggs. Unless of course they are already in cookies or cakes. I use rice milk. I do cheat with cheese sometimes. Never ever eat jello. I do eat seafood sometimes. But never meat. Im worried about getting enough protein too

I guess I need to ask them more about it. Im going to Mexico so I already feel like im not getting enough info. Ya know, no preop qualifications. No nutrition classes or anything.

Any vegans out there that can give me advise on the diet?

Thank you but what about the 14 days pre op?

Hi everyone. Im new here so please bare with me. Im scheduled for the sleeve on February 4th in Mexico with Dr. Joya. The clear liquid pre and post op diet, are you drinking clear liquid protien drinks? Thanks

Dr. Joya in Peurto Villara anyone??

I will be sleeved on Feb 4th in Puerto Villara with Dr. Joya. I did a lot of research choosing him but havent seen anyone mention him here. Any one???

Hi. I chose Mexico because my insurance doesnt cover it. Its 1/3 the price in Mexico. I did a lot of research before making that decision. I chose Dr.Joya after much research also. Scary but praying this is the right decision

Hi all. My surgery is scheduled for Feb 4th 2014 with Dr. Joya. Anyone have any experiences to share. regarding Dr. Joya or surgery in Mexico. Thanks, Jaclyn in florida

February 4th in Mexico !

Im concerned about leaking post- op. 1/100 doesnt seem rare to me.

As a nurse I agree. If you tell us your very hard to get, it does psyche us out. Lol. But rest assured, everyone has veins. I work in the emergency room and get lots of dehydrated patients, but they always have a findable vein :-)
