I made it!! I am in Mexicali, Mexico one hour away from my plication procedure with Dr. Rafael Abril. I am so very pleased. The hospital is small and privatley owned. Very clean, very nice. I am calm and feel secure about this now. finally!! I was such a worry wort. I will re post after I wake up and let you all know how it went. If anyone is looking for surgery and is afraid of Mexico, like me...chill out, they really are great down here!!

Surgery was GREAT!! I saw my doc this morning and accused him of not even doing surgery. My body is not sore, I do not hurt anywhere other than my incision sites. I was nasuas after coming out of anesthesia, but that is totally normal. He said my stomach was very very large and had to plicate it three times, he said normal is two times. My throat hurts from the tube, but not bad. I can suck on ice until later today, then sips of Water. The nurses are wonderful, the doctors team was fabulous. I am so grateful, worth every penny. Ciao!!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
