I was going to go with Dr. Rod originally because I live in TX and I could drive there. Then I checked on Dr. Garcia in Tijuana cause I kept hearing great stuff about him. Even with airfare I will come out $1200 cheaper so I went with him.

My husband does x-ray but he does industrial x-ray on welds and metals.He works on pipelines, papermills, power plants, and stuff like that.

Yeah I have a cousin who just had her surgery in Oct. and liked him, so my other cousin and I are going together. I have heard great things abt Dr. Garcia too.

So your husband does the big x- rays ;) that's neat. I also do mammo...but keep that quiet.. lol Women don't care for that part.

      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! 😞
