  5. I love spicy food and missing the heat in my diet. I was sleeved 7/12 and am currently 10 days post op. I had surgery in Mexico and they didn't mention anything about spicy food. What has you Dr or nut said about spicy food?

  13. Hi there! I am looking for alternatives that have a similar mouth feel to rice and pasta. Has anyone found anything amazing?

  16. Mine was specifically excluded. I was denied over and over again, with a higher BMI. I just got back from Mexico, where I had it done. So far, so good. Definitely worth it.
  17. Has anyone else experienced this bubbly chest feeling? I am not having problems getting down clear liquids, no vomiting, lots of expected burping, but the bubbly sensation is so strange in my chest.

  19. I was sleeved on 7/12. They told me to just keep the incisions clean, but not to keep them covered with bandages after today (4 days post op).
  20. I am 10 days clear liquids, 10 days full liquids, then 10 days purée, and so on. My day 1 wasn't the day of surgery though. It was the day I was released from the hospital, so really I did 2 days of iv only prior to clear liquids.

  27. I am feeling the same as both of you. The 12th can't come fast enough.

  29. Anyone else fly 2 days after their surgery?

  31. Search "July 2017 Sleevers"
  32. I am going to Mexico because my insurance specifically excludes weight loss coverage. There is no way around that. Self pay in the US is upwards of $20,000. In Mexico, the cost is considerably lower and just as safe at a reputable facility. I am getting sleeved in Mexico on 7/12, and I have only told 4 friends, no family. I don't want them to worry.
  33. I have only told 3 friends and my boyfriend. Since I am going to TJ, Mexico, I am afraid my family will freak out. I'm terrified to tell them. The people I have told are being super supportive. One of my friends is coming along as my travel companion to ensure everything goes well. I haven't quite figured out how to tell my family yet... open to suggestions.
  34. I messaged the admin to see if it can be changed to secret. I'm a secret sleever too. I doubt anyone I know will be searching out sleeve groups, but it would be nice to have that extra assurance.
  35. I completely understand. I was worried about the same thing, but according to FB only members can see what's in the group. I have only told 4 people, and I definitely don't need my family finding out that I am having surgery in Mexico on FB. They would freak out.
