Did you have your surgery with dr Maytorena? What can you share about the experience with him and the facility?

Just wanted to take a moment and share a little bit of my journey with everyone. I was sleeved in TJ Mexico by Dr. Illan on 03/08/016. I loved everything about choosing my surgery in Mexico. It was more like a vacation! I am 79 lbs down! Went from a 26/28 pants that where tight down to a 20 that is falling off of me. My shirts were a 4X and now they are a XL. Sometimes I find myself not doing what I should and the scale stops moving. It is just a reminder to get back on track. Everyone told me not to do the surgery because it was the "easy way out". If this is easy I hate to see what they called hard! You have to want a change to see a change. You have to work for every pound and hold yourself accountable for every bite that enters your body. I love my online support and knowing my doctor is just a phone call away. Thank you Dr. Illan for giving me this tool and thanks to Stacy at Bariatric Pal for helping me make it work for me. Got 77 more lbs to go but it's all down hill from here! Best decision I have ever made.

Tish312 reacted to Night in Protein suggestions
My favorite Protein is SDC About Time brand. chocolate is delicious. 1 serving of the Protein is 100 cal & 25g of protein iirc. Personally, I like mixing it w/ soy milk, but that does add another 100 cal. Mixing it with cold, black coffee is an option as well for added flavor beyond Water.
A protein I enjoyed mixed with Water was Syntrax nectar Fuzzy Navel. I tried several of their flavors and everything was awful, excepting this flavor. It is fairly sweet, however.
I know when I was trying out differing Proteins, I ordered a bunch of samples from Nashua Nutrition.
