I will be leaving a few days before you arrive! I will keep you posted! Do you have to do the preop diet?

Surgery date is today (8/10/15) with Dr. Altimirano.

How are you? Hope your surgery went well and you are on the mend! Got mine today and I'm so happy! Little discomfort but worth it!

I am getting sleeved in Mexico with dr Jesus Lopez on August 19th. Have to say a little nervous.

I just had mine done with Dr Ortiz today. So far so good recovering way faster than I anticipated! Don't worry it's the best decision you have made. Are they having you do the pre op diet?

Surgery great. Recovery going well. Fly home in the morning.

congrats! How are you? I know it gets tough but drink your shakes when you feel like you are going to slip, it's amazing how head hunger fools you. Keep us posted!

Hi All today is the day I go home, I was supposed to go home tomorrow but I live in San Diego and I feel so much better today not as much discomfort and ready to go see my furbabies and drink some of the homemade soups I made before I left and order Inspire Pure shake powders, down 4lbs since Tuesday! Yay! So glad I did this! Keep us posted on your journey, bring a pillow to hold your stomach when you cough, bring gas x, and bring some G2 sugar free or powerade sugar free to help with electrolytes.

I am so happy that you had a great outcome. I have 5 days now until surgery. Thanks for the tips I will bring all the items you recommended. What about a compression tank top to hold my stomach in? Do you think that would be better than a pillow?

Congrats, what kind of soups did you make? Can we have them right after surgery?

Mine is on August 24 in Tijuana

well I would recommend loose fitting clothes because of the incisions you don't want them to snag but maybe the compression tank will work just be careful still maybe put something on your belly when you cough just a suggestion I brought a mini decorative pillow. You will be on clear liquids the first 4 days and really you won't be able to hold anything else without major pain, you barely can take two sips before your stomach screams at you. The day of surgery and the next day I had ice chips all day to get my fluids in, I tried to sip and it was painful. The other girls were better off sipping the powerade. Keep us posted.
