Just had surgery with Dr. Valenzuela on Monday, she is so sweet, you will love her! The whole experience was great, everyone was so nice. All the Dr.s and nurses took great care of me and the drivers and coordinators were friendly and answered any questions we had. You will be in good hands!

Hey everyone, I just wanted to check in and let everyone know that everything went great! From the beginning to the end everyone at Mexico Bariatric Center was so nice and friendly. Dr. Valenzuela is a great surgeon and so sweet. All the nurses and Drs who took care of me were nice and attentive. I had a great experience, and would do it all over again. I also got to meet Dr. Cabrerra who was really nice and answered my questions. Im down 15 pounds now including pre op and apart from some soreness Im feeling really good!

Im doing ok, Im stuck at 10 pounds lost, tomorrow I start my clear liquids diet. I feel nervous and excited and stressed all at once but ready to hurry up and be done already lol Im having my surgery in Mexico so I have to pack and get everything ready.

The facebook group is private, so only the people in the group can see whats in there.

Im having mine done by Dr. Valenzuela and my coordinator confirmed that she sews over the staple line.

Im having surgery with Dr. Valenzuela on the 9th, I went through Mexico Bariatric Center. There is a support group on facebook the coordinators are on there every day answering questions and our nutrionist is on there as well. I will be posting a review once I get back!

Im scheduled for March 9th, Im also going to Tijuana to get mine done. Im on day 3 of my Pre Op diet, and the first few days I had killer headaches. Everyone says it gets better after the 3rd day so Im hoping thats true. Im really struggling with being tired, since I take medication that already makes me tired its been a hard few days. Im also having a hard time drinking these protein shakes, I think I need to try a different powder.

I started my pre op diet today as well. I am so not loving these protein shakes...

@Lrckey0610 I havent either, I am also nervous about that part!!

Congrats! March 9th over here

I just got my surgery date today, I'm scheduled for March 9th!

Tomorrow night my mom and I are going to go grocery shopping to get all the things we need for it. Anyone have any suggestions for protein shakes?
