Sept 26 Dr Alvarez



Recommended Posts

I have surgery scheduled for sept 26 with Dr Guillermo Alvarez. I am looking for any input from people who have been there for this procedure as well as anyone who is scheduled around my date!!!! I need a support group. My husband is the only person who I have talked to about this. He is very supportive but I would like to expand my support group with people who have been in my shoe or are currently there!!

Hi! I am having my sleeve done by Dr. Alvarez the very next day, September 27th! I am so glad to connect with someone else who will be down there at about the same time. My husband will be coming with me. I have told only my sister and one or two close friends that I am having this procedure, and all have been supportive. Dr. Alvarez's reviews are very good, and I feel confident that this will be a good journey.

Hi!

I officially paid my deposit with Dr. Alvarez on Saturday! SO excited! At $8500, he's definitely not the cheapest, but the comfort I feel with him is PRICELESS.

He is in Piedras Negras...from what I hear, about 2 miles over the border.

      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! 😞
