  1. i went to Blossom as well and they were great. I paid the amount I was quoted before surgery. Some of the tests/procedures were billed to my insurance but what I was quoted I paid. Very professional and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. Good luck!

    February 2019 weight loss buds

    This is what I was given, they said it was full of electrolytes to help dehydration after surgery. I think they also said it may prevent hunger after surgery. It was my choice whether to drink or not, i did drink whether it helped or not who knows!

    I had the sleeve and outpatient released about 2-3 hours after surgery. First 24 hours were tough but got better every hour. Walk walk walk, sip sip sip. You will be great! Good luck!!

    I was able to take Tylenol’ pills. The first 24 hours were the toughest but it gets better everyday. I echo what everyone else says, walk walk walk and sip sip sip! Good luck!

    First Gas? How long

    You may try a stool softener, I was given Colace, it could be a coincidence, but soon after I was able to pass gas.
  9. Thank you for sharing, Blossom's Fast Track program seems like a great choice. I am looking forward to next week and a safe (and quick) recovery. I am scheduled with Matt A as well. Also, congrats on surgery and I look forward to joining you on the loser's bench very soon!
  10. Sounds like Blossom has the process down. Thank you so much for sharing your experience. I am looking forward to next Thursday (Happy Valentine's Day to Me LOL) Your review makes me feel 100 times better. I am planning on going back to work Monday so hopefully I will have a smooth of a recovery as you two! Can't wait to join you on the loser's bench.
  11. Thank you both for sharing your experiences and I am glad to hear that you both are doing so well! Congrats! I will be going there next week and I wondered if managed the day of surgery not staying in the hospital when so may other programs keep them at least 1 night. Also, did you fly home the day after surgery and was that troublesome for you in anyway? Thank you for sharing your experiences and again Congrats!!

    Blossom Bariatrics in Las Vegas, so I will be traveling too. I have seen many positive reviews from having their procedure in Mexico. Will you be traveling far from home? Were they helpful when you were setting your surgery up?

    Just signed up for Feb
  21. Good idea, I’ll call tomorrow and see if they can do anything on their end. Thank you for the suggestion
  22. Calling everyday now and it seems that they are estimating longer and longer! Today they said it may take 45 days, really ? That is onto next year when I switch insurance...I am so bummed.
  23. Congrats on the approval and December surgery date that is great!!! I am still hoping the stars will align and I can get this done before the end of the year. BSBS of Al please hurry and approve!!
