unjury is good! Especially with 1/2 frozen banana. Walmart has good banana protien shake for less than $20 and is REALLY GOOD. The injury can be put in Soups too just keep temp down, as instructed. You need a good support team. I used to eat when bored and stressed, but am replacing food with walk, or other types of cardio ie treadmill "hill", or bands. When hungry, drink Water or Protein shakes. Follow drs. Orders on when to do liquods, pureed and solids. We THINK we know our bodies and wamt to give it what WE think it needs or what its TORTURING us into thinking it needs....but if we really knew our bodies, some of us would not have felt we needed the surgery to be healthy. I am praying for you and am sorry you had bad experience and are feeling so down. Sent from my SM-J700T1 using the BariatricPal App

I promise there will be others feeling the same way. After surgery, DO walk the halls good for your recovery,its dr.s orders, and gives you the chance to visit with others. Encourage one another. Sent from my SM-J700T1 using the BariatricPal App

Thete will be soo many Americans there going through the same thing. Your driver will pick you up at airport, most likely other patients too. Get to know this group. You will meet others at the hotel too. These people will be your support network while there. You will be ok. Make sure you walk the halls, as instructed post op. I still keep im touch with some in the group I met. I had surgery in Mexico Oct 3. My dr. was Dr. Cabrera. Awesome! You might find a,slight language barrier with some nurses. Just a few. The staff are awesome. Good luck and keep me posted. Whos your dr. Sent from my SM-J700T1 using the BariatricPal App

JUST WANTED TO ADD: NOT NORMAL Sent from my SM-J700T1 using the BariatricPal App

You need to see the dr. My experience is very similar but my lower stomach started "bruising" a week after surgery and the pain was getting worse. I had a low grade temp. I went to dr. and found out I had a staph infection. Ues this was the whole they pulled my stomach out of. My belly was full of infection, tho my incision site, at first, didn't show signs of infection. I wouldn't wait any longer. This could be serious. I was on abt therapy for three weeks longer. A stronger dose, and boy once the infection started healing, I felt likea totally different person! Keep in touch, let us know jow your doing. Sent from my SM-J700T1 using the BariatricPal App

Dr. Cabrera did mine Oct 3. Pain is minimal. Was on pained for 3-4 days post op and its just a souped up Tylenol. Went shopping 2 days post op in Tijuana. Take with you some gasx strips and bought 2 bottles of pepcid at rx in Tijuana. God bless you. Sent from my SM-J700T1 using the BariatricPal App

Im glad someone touched on this. Taking my pills make me want to vomit everytime. I habe chewable Calcium and chewable Vitamins but is there chewable b vitamins? If so where can I get? Sent from my SM-J700T1 using the BariatricPal App

Dont stock up too much especially on dated foods, ie yogurt. I stocked up and threw much of it away. Also once I started back on foods, I didnt want to drink broth mix I bought through bariatric site. I wasted alot of money. Plus you won't be as hungry as you once were and can't eat much at all. Good luck and God bless! Sent from my SM-J700T1 using the BariatricPal App

I THINK there are other issues as well as he is INSECURE. Does he know what the surgery consists of? Is he scared? Or just needing an "out"? Good luck to you. Take care of you. Sent from my SM-J700T1 using the BariatricPal App

Sister and I had sleeve done Oct 3. I started preop diet on Aug 3. HW 350. SW 301. CW 266. I gained 15 lbs at surgery time due to inflammation and fluids. But have since lost that. My sister SW 249. CW 219. Sent from my SM-J700T1 using the BariatricPal App

I agree, sugar free popsicles and sugar free Jello.

My sister and I had sleeve done at same time and she was sleeping on her side the next day and belly 2 days after. I had infection in stomach so I didn't sleep on stomach for 3 long weeks. Sent from my SM-J700T1 using the BariatricPal App

Dr. Cabrera was my surgeon Oct 3. I would recommend Tijuana Bariatric to anyone inquiring about sleeve. Was amazed at how many people there from USA. Good luck on your journey and God bless!! Sent from my SM-J700T1 using the BariatricPal App

Gas X strips. Make sure your shoes are slip one and baggy comfortable drawstring or elastic pants. God bless Sent from my SM-J700T1 using the BariatricPal App

Yes. I gained 16 lbs! You are full of liquids, Gas and not to mention inflammation. My doctor warned me of this and told me I would loose it within 2 weeks. And that's what happened, by the 14th day, I had lost all of it. This is normal. Sent from my SM-J700T1 using the BariatricPal App
