almonds
marcescobar22@hotmail.com replied to marcescobar22@hotmail.com's topic in Mexico & Self-Pay Weight Loss SurgeryThank you!!!!! I'm doing pretty good...adding new veggies everyday.... something totally new for me...but....i find that to accept (eggplant ) I added low fat feta cheese and on another occasion cheddar cheese ....kind of disguising the taste, in both cases it was an ounce of each. ...does this totally defies the purpose? ? I'm so confused about everything. .... also I feel that if I eat more veggies I will never make it to the amount of calories that I'm supposed to. .....

Dr. Altamirano
Hi! I flew and came back home 3 days after surgery. ....no issue at all. There are several people that drove also didn't have any problems.....they will pick you up either from the border (if you drive ) or the airport and they will bring you to the recovery house, the next day they will take you to the hospital. ...where are you from?
