Hello my name is Dylan. I am 22. I am 5'7" and weigh 360 lbs. I am having surgery in Mexico as my insurance won't cover it here in the states. I am going through a company called BeLiteWeight , my surgeon is Dr. Jose Rodriguez. I was just wondering if anyone has went through beliteweight or is scheduled to have their surgery with them. My surgery is scheduled for Dec. 28th. I'm so excited

Hi Dylan!

I had my surgery with Dr. Rodriguez on July 4th. It was one of the best things I have ever done in my life! The ladies at BeLite Weight are great. The doctors, nurses, and staff at Star Medica are even better. I've never had such an amazing hospital experience.

Is anyone going with you? My mom came with me. There was a place for her to sleep in my room. It was good to have her with me for company and to help me with adjusting my pillows and stuff.

Let me know if you have any questions!

Hello! Awesome! Congrats on your surgery! I can't wait to have mine and start working on a new and improved me. I am also bringing my mom with me. Just paid my deposit to hold my surgery date today. How have you been doing post op?

Injust came back mine was nov 9th ibe got pros and cons u can pm me if u want keep in mine iam only few days out lol

Post op has been great for me. I seem to have taken to the surgery very well. I did not have a lot of pain. The worst thing after surgery was the gas pain, but gas-X dissolving strips helped immensely. Get up and start moving around as soon as you can after surgery. That helped a lot too.

Hey that's good to hear. I'm not sure how to PM on here. I am on my iPhone through the app

Decided to redone load this app and post some progress! It's been an amazing year so far! I am so happy with my decision! I feel great and have so much energy!
