I had the VSG in Tijuana on May 16 with Dr. Salvador Ramirez. I recovered at the Vida boutique and it was all arranged through TINY (The Incredible New You). The entire experience was incredible. Nurses were fantastic, anesthesiologist was amazing, I can't say enough about the care and support I received.

My only annoyance is I am 5 days post-op and am 2 pounds heavier than I was the day of surgery. I have been losing a little every day, but still it's frustrating. Anyone else GAIN weight?

Very pleased to be down to 190.9 lbs this morning. Still on clear liquids which isn't much fun, but only today and tomorrow left, and then I'll move to full liquids. Can't wait for my first protein shake!

Feeling VERY depressed today. Anyone else have this issue? I hope it's a physical thing.

I wish I knew what to say. I'm pre-op and looking for suggestions and information. I'm sorry you're not feeling well...hope you feel better soon

It's okay must be the drugs! I feel good now! Also down about 5 pounds so that's nice.

Awesome! That's good to hear! I'm just reading everything so I can know what to expect ????

I was also sleeved in TJ this month. i'm only a few days out an agree about the experience being great. You are probably still swollen or holding fluid. That's what I see as well. Perhaps you should hold off weighing yourself for a week or so. Stay positive.

Glad to hear you're doing well too! I'm happy because I'm

188.1 today so have definitely lost! Today is the first day of full liquids. I have to admit I was pretty happy and used to clear. But I'll throw it three Premier Protein shakes a day for the next week.

Hey girl! Lets be in touch, it looks like we have similar stats. How's it going? I am 4 weeks and two days out. I've been out of town so I haven't seen a scale in nearly a week. I will update my tracker when I do. Tell me how you're feeling? Me, I am on the fence. I still am having a hard time with finding other things to do besides eat, it was such a huge part of what I did and thought about. As a Mexico sleever I didn't get much information about post care, but I feel like my Dr. felt like your body will tell you what it can and cannot handle. Im interested to see how your thinking evolves in the coming weeks What was your BMI when you had surgery? Did you beef up for surgery? I had food funerals for months. Anyhow I look forward to hearing from you.

OMG you are soooo funny! BMI was 31 going into surgery I think. Highest weight was 198. Preop diet got me down to 193.5. I'm 9 days post-op and down to 186. I hate eating! I just tried blended creamy soup and hated it. I like drinking light lemonade and Premier Protein. Water too of course. I actually water down the lemonade also. I'm losing weight quickly right now but know I'll stalk or slow down soon enough so just trying to enjoy this without being too arrogant!!!

Stall not stalk.
