March Sleevers in Tijuana!



Recommended Posts

Brand new here! :) I am going with Dr. Illan on the 13th of March! I am an RN in northern MN, looking forward to some warmer weather!! My sister is going with me, I am a little nervous to leave 4 kiddos back home with the hubby, I will miss them. It is my spring break from my bachelor's program, so good timing. Hope it all goes as smoothly as possible! My friend Jen is a consultant for Dr. Illan, and has sent 9 others besides herself to him from up here in MN and they have had amazing results!!! I am so excited to be flying out in (gulp) 11 days!!!

Valleriek, I am also a nurse and I'm being sleeved by Dr. Illan on March 11th. Our paths will hopefully cross while we are there. Good luck!

So exciting to see the March surgeries happen as that means mine is right around the corner. I see a few of Dr Illan patients here and just wanted to let you know we have a support group for his patients called Team Illan. Great group of people! I can't wait to hear everyone's updates 4/4 can't come soon enough!

Hi everyone. I'm here at Mi hospital waiting. And waiting. Going to go f'ing nuts. We got here at 7:30am and it's almost 1 and I want to pull my hair out. Nobody can tell me when I'm going. Had bloods and EKG, met everyone, in my room in the gown and compression socks on STARVING. Lol. Fuck me.

      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! 😞
