Calling all April 2013 Sleevers going to Mexico!



Recommended Posts

Hi Tania here

Sleeve booked in for April 4 & would like to join a thread and FB ( email below) with others starting the same around that time.

Was booked for Band however after further research have switched to the Sleeve. Seems like less maintenance ( fills , visits etc) and a more normal or natural outcome, just me , well hopefully less of me, just with a smaller stomach. No foreign bits inside me, and too be honest food getting 'stuck' with the band doesn't appeal.

Recovery & healing is what I am most anxious about, I see the chat on here as well about the possible grief post op of losing a good chunk of a body part & I understand that. Reminds me to book in for regular shrink sessions to help me with the change & adjustment. Love to hear from you Tania

Anyone that had been to OCC and dr Ortiz...did you purchase a spirometer and take it with you? The paperwork says to do so but I am wondering if that is necessary. My surgery date is April 15th and I hope that the flight home is ok for me. It will be a long flight and I don't want to be in pain for the entire trip. I guess it's one of the prices you have to pay if your traveling to Mexico for the surgery.

I AM getting sleeved April 15 with Dr. Garcia and I went through Ready4Achange.

I'm also getting sleeved by Dr. Garcia through ready4change on April 15th 2013. I was supposed to go a month ago but had to change my date because of career commitments. I assume we'll be seeing each other there!

      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.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!
