Hey guys!

I am from Montreal' date=' Quebec and I am doing my surgery in February 2013. I haven't decided my date yet because I was hoping to maybe find a Buddy since I would be going alone. I am 20 years old and I am 5'5'' and my weight is 277 Lbs. I will be doing my surgery in Mexico, Tijuana with doctor Garcias. So if anyone is interested in being my buddy and going together that would be very awesome.[/quote']

I was like you' date=' I didn't see many comments on Lopez in the beginning when I joined this site so I wasn't even considering him at first. But as I did my research, and I talked with a lady on here who went with Lopez, she has said nothing but wonderful things about him. For his price and experience, I'm going with him.[/quote']

You will love both he and hos wife. The three of us that had surg with him on 10-10-12, are doing great. He's very skilled and professional. I felt super safe and cared for. One of us got a bad cough and pains. She called and left him a message, and he called her back that day! My own Dr in the US won't do that. Feel secure in your decision, try.

I had my surgery with Dr Lopez on 10-10-12. I met two fabulous women that did too. We all met in the van when Abraham picked us up. You will all stay at the Marriott. It's super boring' date=' minimal TV, food is awful too. Bring some broth or cubes with you, also Crystal light packets!!!!!

I was alone, and so was another girl. We hit it off so well they let us room together in the hospital. The second day after your surgery you will be itching to get back to the hotel. After the first day at the hotel, you will be sooo over it, and ready to go home. We didn't hurt at all, just the gas pains.

But, there were four of us at Mi hospital, and we are own support group. We talk every single day, off and on all day long. You will fall in love with your sister sleevers!!( or brother) we were all women, and had so much in common.

Dr Lopez is wonderful! All of the Dr's there are. Go with your gut... No pun intended:)

They are both wonderful Dr's. I believe ready2bskinny had him. She is one of the four that had him, we three had Lopez and his wife.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
