  3. some patients wait up to 6 weeks, i started at 4 weeks....i really wanted to start losing more weight and so i headed quickly to the gym. started with some weight lifting and some cardio - at slow pace - but little by little i've been getting better at it plus the weight loss has been wonderful. goodluck:thumbup:
  4. i had my sleeve with Dr. Aceves in Mexicali - it's a 4 hr drive to Las Vegas - or a one hour flight. aprox. He and his staff are very professional and reliable. I have nothing but good comments about him and the hospital's service. Check them out!!:confused:
