I live in Alberta and to dodge all the wait time and insurance hangups I'm going to Mexico, it's a fraction of the cost and I've also known people that have gone there and had a really good experience dde04

check out the obesity Contol clinic. He was featured on Oprah and has done 16,000 surgeries. He staples. 3 times and an extra thread so no leakages .

I'm also from Alberta and I'm going to Mexico as well. My surgery is Dec 14 2013 with Dr Aceves. Dr Ortiz has very good reviews. I'm glad your not going through weight loss forever from Saskatoon. They are such a rip off it's unbelievable.

      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! 😞
