    foutchd got a reaction from vsg_candy in Dr. Ariel Ortiz at the OCC   
    I am two months out and down 42 pounds! You will be happy with your choice. Ronda will help you with any questions you have and will follow up by E mail. You will need to find a doctor to help you with your aftercare follow up. Blood work...... I use obesity help.com for info? Nothing serious just Protein ideas and things that might come up.. Constipation:( it's a great site for things others do or have been through. You need to know you are in good hands and YES things will be different.... Example: there are no computers in the hospital? Nurses use clip boards and notebooks. They speak little English ? It's very clean and you are safe! And taken care of! There are bumps in the road ...pick up times , waiting, nothing life threating? Boarder crossing is ALWAYS different... You can not time it! So time schedules get screwed up. Know that Dr. Ortiz is wonderful and personable !

    I sent you a message a few days ago...LOL You have to know where to look for it? I found the spot be accident! Go to MY SURGERY look at the top right for an envelope . If I sent it ... Ha .... ( who knows) it will have a message ? Any way I am a day ahead of you. I fly out of Florida the 27th to San Diego where they pick me up at the Airport that evening. My procedure will be the next morning , the 28th. I am struggling with this pre opp diet!! Lost 10 lbs already but I stay hungry and it's hard because I have NO will power! I am doing it! I just keep thinking this is going to help me heal faster!! I wish Saturday would just get here! I hope I can stick to the broth!! Can't wait to see how you are doing?
