  1. Hi Guys , Well I'm packed and ready to start this very exciting journey. Wish me luck

  4. Hi I'm starting my preop today that gives me a whole month to lose the weight I have gained since booking the surgery plus the 5%. I'm doing 2 protein shakes and a lean cuisine with up to 3 lbs GREEN veg per day. Religiously gonna take my vitamins now and start using my incentive siprometer. I WILL be ready for Nov 8th.
  5. Hi I'm sorry you're still not feeling well. Are you getting enough fluids? I know when I had my lapband surgery I felt dizzy when I hadn't drank enough. Could you have a few sips of something before you get out of bed and see if that helps. Hope you feel better soon.
  6. wow 48lbs!!!!! Don't beat yourself up just make decisions that work for you.
  7. Me too, That is why I had Lapband and now I'm getting the sleeve. Funny how TV can be a good thing.
  8. Hi I know I'm pretty early to ask ,but is there anyone getting sleeved in November? I'm traveling 7th Nov having surgery at the OOC with Dr Ortiz and then traveling back the 14th as he wants you to stay until the drain is out. Hoping there are some others out there.
  9. I had a consul after losing all my weight with lapband and I was quoted $8500 for body lift, boob lift and implants by Dr campos -leon Tj mexico. I have had numerous friends use him. Great care.

  11. Ditto.lol . Its all in the name of science.
  12. Good for you. what an inspiration.
  13. hi after my banding I told everyone even strangers.lol I was so proud of myself and how the band had helped me. After having my band removed I gained every lb back and feel like a failure. I had the band for a reason in the first place right. So I'm having the sleeve in Nov and apart from 1 or 2 people I'm keeping this to myself. I'll just tell people I'm following my lapband lifestyle with great disapline and As I found out before nobody's really interested in how much i eat.
  14. Hello there fellow victorious valentine. Nicolek here and i'm with you girl after I lost my band I gained all my weight back and I am have the sleeve 8th Nov. Can't wait to finally get my life on track again. Good to see a familiar face.
  15. I'm sorry to hear you are not doing well. I'm in okotoks and I'm having th esleeve done in Nov by Dr Ortiz. May I ask who did your procedure and which Dr are you seeing here? Please feel better soon.
