I just started my research on Doctors on Mexico. I have heard from another weight loss group about Dr. Kuri. Has anyone else been to him? What was your experience? Heard about him? Thanks, Jennifer

I am going in Jan to Dr. Kuri and I have done lots of research you hear about him and Ortiz the most. Both have loads of experience and price is a little lower with Kuri. I choose Kuri because I like the idea of staying in a hospital. Kuri does his procedure out of Hospital Angeles and it is brand new and up to date.

I had my surgery with Dr. Kuri back in Jan. 05 and I had a great experience, even with all my fills I have never had a problem!!

Great choice, if you have any questions you can e-mail me I would love to help out.

I had surgery with Dr Kuri as well ... haven't had any complications whatsoever. I've been back down to TJ a few times for fills, just went back yesterday for a little unfill. Dr Kuri is the nicest, most caring doctor I've ever come across so to those who already have surgery scheduled with him, know that you'll be in good hands while you're down there! Best of luck to each of you!

Hello-

I'm scheduled for surgery with Dr. Kuri on Jan 4th 2008. I can hardly wait. I have a couple of friends that went with Kuri and said he is the best and I did tons and tons of research and could not find any negative thing about him.

I'm so excited to start my new life.

I had my surgery with Dr. Kuri in 2004. There were never any complications and he did a great job. I have started gaining some weight back, but it is more a result of my poor eating and nothing else. My only complaint about Dr. Kuri is that sometimes it is difficult to actually see him. He has a lot of associates and has stopped seeing his patients as often.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
