I am 11 months Post-surgery and I am doing great. just hit 100 lbs lost and 5 lbs past my goal. feel great. the hair loss has been bad for me also. I get the same comments, "STOP LOSING" it is a bit irritating but oh well they mean well. just another way to say I look good. so this point in not really trying to lose weight but I'm still losing about 4 lbs a month.

Congrats!!!! Good job Sent from my SM-G930V using BariatricPal mobile app

I used Dr. Quinones at Pompeii surgical in Tiajuana. I had a great experience. I had no complications and have lost 83 lbs since January.

From personal experience, I don't see why this would be necessary. I had minimal pain and the pain I did have was mostly from trapped gas. I know that everyone is different but it just seems like overkill to me.

I am now 6 months Post-surgery and I am doing great. I have never regretted it once. I am currently down 80 lbs. better than I thought I would do. Never a complication with Dr Q Sent from my SM-G930V using BariatricPal mobile app

I had a good experience. The staff is great. I wish the rooms had private bathrooms though. It's no like a American hospital though so don't be expecting that. Dr Quinones did a great job though and thats what really matters.

I need some advice guys. I am 4 weeks post-op tomorrow. I had surgery done in Tijuana so I have very little guidance post-op. I should be in pureed/mushy food stage but the thing is, I HATE the way it feels to eat. I do get some hunger, it's just the way the food feel as it goes down it feels uncomfortable, gurgley, gassy . I have tried eggs, refried Beans, tilapia, cream Soups, and yogurt. Most days I only eat for one meal and so I'm still depending on Protein shakes for most of my meals. My question is, Is this ok? should I try to eat more often?

totally off subject but could somebody tell me how to update my weight on profile figured it out thanks

I am 3 weeks post op. I didn't do well with my first egg either. I'm in a really frustrating phase right now. My brain wants semblance of real food but my sleeve isn't ready. ahhhh

Congratulations, I was sleeved 10 days ago and am starting at almost the same weight as you. I hope I can have the same success. There's still part of me that thinks it won't work... I am following all the rules so I know I just have to think positive. Sent from my SM-G930V using the BariatricPal App

I went to Dr Quinones at Pompeii Surgical. He did a great job and the staff was great. The surgery Center was kinda small though. The rooms are not very private and you can hear evervything going on. No private bathroom in the rooms which was the biggest surprise for me. If youb want the place to look like a surgical center in US then this isn't the place for you. It's was very clean though and I can't say enough about the great staff. Sent from my SM-G930V using the BariatricPal App

Great information. I'm 8 days post -op and cleared to start my sulfasalazine again but have been afraid sounds the pills are so big. I think I will just wait till I switch to soft foods to start up again Sent from my SM-G930V using the BariatricPal App
