My surgery was on 7/2 in Tijuana. My surgery went great and I feel good. I just have to keep reminding myself to drink liquids throughout the day. Good luck to all of you!

so exciting, I'm a Tijuana post op sleever. I had my surgery Sept. 26th 2014. I started at 217 pounds and weight in at 135 pounds. I have lost 82 pounds total in 10 months, and could not be happier. You will love your results, the journey is stuff not gonna lie, but it is so worth it.

Good Luck and CONGRATS!!!!!!!

My date is September 5th, with dr. Altamirano in TJ. we've got our tickets purchased and I'm ready to go! Only one week preop diet for me, thank goodness, but I can't do the diet that was sent to me because it has grapefruit juice, and that gives me a stomachache! What to do?

I was sleeved in Tujuana using Dr Jesus Martin Lopez and made arrangements through BariatricPal. They did everything for me. They had someone with us all of the time to take is where we needed to go and to translate. Picked us up and dropped us off at the airport. Great experience

I had mine with Dr.Ariel Ortiz yesterday (I'm still in Tijuana). The facilities are top notch and everything is taken care. In my research it was more important that I couldn't find any deaths or complaints...

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
