chrisfreemanuk got a reaction from Blanka_birdo in Hi everyone. A newbie 5 days post op plication
Hello everyone. After a fews months of thinking and deciding to go ahead i went for the gastric plication. Am still getting over the effects of the anesthetic but coping well with the liquid only diet. Any tips or advice would be most welcome.

My surgery was May 20, 2015 w/ Dr. Ortiz in Tijuana, Mexico. So far I've lost 73lbs. Good luck to you.

Welcome to the forum. So nice to see someone else who has had a plication. Don't seem to be many of us, though that surgery is more popular in Europe (where you are) than it is in the US.Pretty much all the advice given here for other surgeries apply post plication. You can probably start mushy foods etc a bit sooner than with the other surgeries and advance to solid food a bit faster . Less to heal with a less invasive procedure. Do remember weight loss is slower with a plication so don't compare yourself to VSG or bypass. Congratulations on being on losers bench now. If you have any specific questions please post them. I am sure you will get replies and lots of support.
