Recommended Posts

Looking to see if anyone else will be getting their surgery the same day as me? I just verified with dr. kelly's assistant for that day.......yay can't wait!!!!!! Also has anyone started dieting yet? I have started to force myself to drink alot more Water, and i'm trying to find out what everyone used at first for protein.. i don' t want to be losing my hair or tired all the time. What Vitamins are you on? Anyone try those Protein Shots that have 50g of Protein in them? Any info would be great!

I'm not going for a month after you, but I'm seeing Dr Kelly, and I have been dieting for over a week and have lost 4 pounds so far! Hoping to be down 20 pounds by surgery! I downloaded "my fitness pal" onto my phone, and it created a calorie amount to follow daily (also Protein, fats, carbs etc). I have not tried the Protein Shots you are talking about, but I've read that your body can't process more than about 25g at a time, so maybe just use half at a time. Wishing you an ready surgery and recovery :)

Congratulations kansasgirl! I am also dieting and also have my fitness pal (ladies please ad me if you would like LBeautyy notice 2ys). my dieting is not going to be too extensive, just watching what I eat and stoping when I am full, that has proven to be a real challange for me! My birthday is in april, exactly two weeks before my surgery, so that night I am planning on eating a lot of my favorite food (so much that I will probably get sick), I know this is unhealthy and should not be done, but I am doing it with enough time to allow my body to get back to normal before surgery. I am only supposed to do a 3 day liquid diet for my surgery but I am planning in doing two weeks because I believe it can help and it will definetly not hurt.

Where can I find info on dr Kelly because I need in house financing and he does it? Can u send me a link to him or his coordinators email address please? I am interested in having surgery June 4. I just recently was told that dr Garcia no longer does in house financing and I need this surgery badly.

The only doctors I know of that do in-house financing is Dr. Rodriguez in Juarez and Dr. Garcia. Dr. Kelly does not do in house financing. My mom is finally ready to have her surgery. She did in house financing with Dr. Garcia. They are changing companies that provide the servicing and they said there is a delay in the paperwork but he still offers it. Just call back and ask for Julie. She is the person that does the finance work or is in that department.

Good luck on your surgery! Where there’s a will, there’s a way!

      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! 😞
