June 15th Tijuana

I'm the same date in Tijuana with Dr Garcia. Who's your surgean?
I am with dr. Jesus Lopez. We will be flying in on Sunday from Texas.
I will be flying in too from Louisville, Ky on the 14th too staying at the Marriott

You will love the Marriott!!!!! We stayed there Feb 2014 when my daughter was sleeved by Dr. Cabero at Mi Doctore hospital. They have a wonderful restaurant downstairs that caters to bariatric patients and guests. It is very secure and not far from the hospital.

This year I stayed at the Sage hotel on the 5th floor above florence Hospital and Dr. Camelo was my surgeon. Again, wonderful group of people!!!! Enjoyed the hospitality of Tijuana.

A word of advice to interact with the hotel and hospital staff....be pleasant, smile and joke with them, and if comfortable leave your hospital room door open (encourages visits by the nurses and other patients). Both times we've been there this is how we were and the staff seemed to respond very positively to us! Of course this is how we are normally and some are not comfortable being so open....that's okay too.

The nurses and doctors were fabulous! Good luck on your journey!

Michelle

      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! 😞
