    Vacation at 8 weeks post op

    I had my surgery on 11/11/16 and I flew the following week to CT for a week long vacation for Thanksgiving. I was fine! Just had to plan ahead for meals, which was basically soft purée foods that week. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

    Gastric Sleeve in Juarez MX

    My surgery went just fine! I have lost a total of 65 pounds so far from my heaviest. 15 were from the pre-op diet and since surgery I've lost 50lbs.
  3. Way to go!! That's awesome! What have you been doing/eating to achieve that amount of weight loss? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

    Gastric Sleeve in Juarez MX

    Yes. Everything happened as soon as I got there and got checked into my room. Before surgery, I was researching different companies that provide the surgery all throughout Mexico. But I found BeLiteWeight to be the best, even though it is slightly more expensive than other places in Mexico to get it done. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

    Gastric Sleeve in Juarez MX

    I flew into El Paso on Fri morning, the day of my surgery. And left Sunday morning. So two nights. I tried to get up every two hrs or so to walk the halls and I would try and do 3 "laps" each time. By Monday/Tuesday I was back to my full mobile self. A little slower than normal but I was constantly moving. I went back to work Wednesday. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

    Gastric Sleeve in Juarez MX

    I was just sleeved on 11/11 with Dr. Rodriguez at Star Medica. It was the best decision I have ever made. The only downside to being sleeved in MX is the language barrier speaking with the nurses. But if you know Spanish, then you'll be fine. I used a medical company called BeLiteWeight (google it) and Teri was my patient coordinator. I have no complaints with the company or the hospital/doctors. Everything went perfectly.
