  1. Add coconut oil to a hot drink!! If you can handle a couple tablespoons it does the job! I had to drink it for about 6 months!!

  3. 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 !

  7. I am doing well? How about you? Are you sick of shakes yet? I am having a hard time getting protein in! Everyday gets better! What are you eating?
  8. I had my sleeve with Dr Ortiz June 28th great experience! It's not a walk in the park? You are having surgery! I couldn't be happier!
  9. I feel your pain! I am sick of the same things. Google it for more ideas? Refrained beans topped with cheese!
