I Have To Brag About My Dr. Garcia

[southerngirl 51]

Good for you!!! You are doing great! What hospital were you at?

How was your travel and stay? I am terrified to go across and into Mexico. My family keeps pulling up articles and such of the crime trying to scare me. I laugh it off but I am scared!!

You know how I look at it....you are with the driver when you leave the hospital and go to the hotel, and you don't have to leave the hotel grounds if you don't want. I agree with ShoeLover, there is crime everywhere, just use common sense and don't go in bad areas and you will be fine.

But I do understand the concern.

I am having sleeve surgery with Dr. Garcia on April 11, 2012. I am so excited. Thank you ladies for sharing your experiences. I can't wait to be on the losing side of this weight loss battle. Did any of you do the pre-op diet? How was it? I was told I would need to do the pre-op diet for 10 -14 days due to my BMI.

Wel last night I went to the ER thinking it was my gall bladder, but they said it is my band. Luckily my insurance will pay for the removal. I am suppose to get it out either Tuesday or Thursday thank goodness. I am more than ready. I guess after the healing time from that then I will try to schedule for sometime in may. I just hope Dr.Garcia will still do a sleeve for me since my bmi is already 30.2. I know they do the removal to sleeve with a low bmi but since it will already be out I'm thinking he will say no:(

Well I am just a month behind you. Tell me how it goes!!

[2bsmallagain 156]

I was wondering how hard it is to actually do the pre op diet and how much weight does it make you lose?

Well I got an unexpected call today. It hasn't even been a months and my insurance has approved me for my revision to sleeve I am so excited. I am going to do mine here in Dallad but would recommend Garcia and Zapata to anyone. I'm excited to start my new chapter just like you all are.

I was watching your youtube videos and saw that you couldn't tell when you were full. I am a little concerned about overeating after the surgery and the surgery being in vane. Can you explain what you mean and what your feeling when you eat?

Thank you

I would drink and didn't get the full feeling I wasn't hungry either but recently I drunk to much Water and I knew I had to much I felt full but my hunger has returned full force I'm hungry and the liquids wasn't keeping me statisfied.. But that was my first week I wasn't hungry at all so when I would drink I couldn't tell if I was full or not because I wasn't drinking that much but as soon as I did 4 oz I realized what full was. My sleeve is tricky....I've moved to soft diet had a crab leg today and I was full I was a Lil scared but it went down ok

[2bsmallagain 156]

Oh ok. I understand. Thank you very much.
