  1. Hi there, I am cleaning out my pantry and have quite a bit of high protein low carb foods for pre and post op diet. Protein powders snacks jello Gatorade and the whatnot. If you’re in the Phoenix, AZ area feel free to message me and we can set something up. It’s free. Some might be open and partially used, but it’s mostly unopened and barely used. I just can’t stand the sight of any of it anymore. Soups, liquids, etc. I’ll even deliver. I know how expensive it can be so I’m just wanting to help since I’m mostly healed post surgery and am back to normal foods.
  2. Had my sleeve done Monday the 6th by Dr. Fernando Garcia Govea at Hospital CER via Tijuana Bariatrics. Honestly, I was so nervous beforehand that I truly believed I made the wrong choice. However, after everything was said and done I believe it was a great choice. The hospital was cleanly (honestly, I don't know what I was expecting), but it was way above my expectations. I honestly haven't felt the urge to really explore Tijuana though. I don't really have the energy, lol. How long did it take everyone to be 100% and ready to return to work?
  3. Hello All, I am scheduled for surgery 11/6, and was not advised to stop or discontinue my Androderm treatment. Does anyone have any input? I am finding a lot of conflicting information that doesn't say specifically yes or no. The information my surgeon provided specifies hormones in the same sentence as birth control, which doesn't apply to male patients typically.
