I will say to you akindofmagick that it was bad here, but everyone is trying now to move on and the Mod's have been really great. Susan is usually right here to spank us if we get mouth over load butt syndrome, so don't go away, just work with all of us. This is a good place, we all just want to learn from each other, we don't care who or where anybody went. Some of us just want to learn about our surgery, some have more experience, some are new, and it dosn't matter where you are in your experience, we are all different, and we can learn from each other. There are a few chosen ones, but mostly we just over look them or report them. But please stay, if someone gives you grief, let Susan know, she will help.

Good Morning Cajun, Who is bashing who, this came to me via email, did I write something wrong? It is always hot there, and in the winter it get chilly, I didn't think that was wrong. Sorry

Way to go Carolyn and MNB, I am so glad you are well and you had a great time. MNB, I will tell you, it is either freeze or bake there, who would have thought!!! I will sugest heaters in the rooms for you. Keep us posted, OK? we are all excited to see how your journeys (your's and Carolyns) are moving.

Way to go Stoongal!!! Did I tell you or what!! To a Happy, Healthy you!! Cheers

MNB, if you ask for previous patients emails, they will send them to you. They have a large patient base, so you can hear direct from their patients. I have FIRST HAND EXPERIENCE with this group. Dr. Almana did my sleeve over a year ago, I am still here. No infections, and no problems. You really have to pick and choose who you listen to on these boards. Some people have never been to the Doctor you are discussing, and they will try to scare the willies out of you.

Way to go Nikki, We all go throught the mourning of losing our best friend...It was and still is hard for me, we just have to find other interests.

What complication's? If you have heard about it, why not share? When were they there?

Susan, no belly button follow- up??? I had all that removed..26 pounds...Best surgery I ever had. Doing it agani to get the last of it...20 pounds to go!!!

Why is the erosin rate being related to the doctor?

Good WASA, Are you leaving????

Plain, you are a mod? Why is WASA so nasty? We just want people to tell of their experiences. She needs to drop the goddess attitude. Personally, I don't like alot of the Doctors people go to, but most of us are not bashing peoples choices. Something needs to be done with her.

A little Preparation-H will help that..hehehehe....

wow, I just read what was above my post!! Holy Cow!! I thought WASA was a nurse??? Potty mouth....

zsflower, thank you for shedding light on this. We do appriciate an honest opinion. That WASA is unstable!! I have been to TJ lots of times, including June of this year, and I have not seen violence, but I was escorted around town, and felt very safe. I would not go alone. In fact, I had a great time. For the most part, the Mexican people are very nice and gracious.

This has been so much easier than the band. I missed my band at first, but this has given me more freedom. I feel like I am normal when I eat out or even just cook dinner. I don't have to locate a bathroom when I am out to barf up what ever I ate. The weight loss is weird. I might not lose for several weeks, but my body shrinks and I can wear a smaller size. So it is different, but I love it!!!
