I traveled to Mexico for my sleeve, since I was self-pay. It was about $6500 USD, but I went with one of the most expensive surgeons in Mexico.

Which surgeon?

How did you feel about your surgeon? What kind of follow-up do fid you receive

I honestly only met and interacted with my surgeon right before I was wheeled into the OR. He seemed really friendly and put me at ease. But all of my pre and post-op communication was with the on-staff nutritionist, cardiologist, and radiologist. They answered all my nutritional and medical questions. The nutritionist followed up with me regularly to check my progress and make sure I was on track with what I should be eating and taking my Vitamins. And even now, 20 moths post-op, I know I could email and receive a reply within the hour. They also sent me questionaires frequently in the beginning and then further apart asking me things about whether I had and pain or nausea or difficulty getting fluids in. If any of my answers to those questions were cause for concern, then one of the doctors would call me. My PCP has done all of my follow-up blood work and I've sent that back to OCC to keep in my file.

      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... :(
