de la garza? I considered him and the molding clinic...but Ive read some really bad things about both of them. Im not sure if Im allowed to say that..but now Im sort of worried.

Anyway, I paid 7800 for my surgery at obesitygoodbye.com. My partner paid 8,600 at the same place 2 years ago.

$13,500 -- Dr. Lopez -- Rosarito, Mexico at Sanoviv Medical Institute www.sanoviv.com

You can get the surgery for less it was that much for me because of the facility I used. Rosarito is about an hour from TJ.

If I had it to do over and know what I know now I would go with Dr. Helmuth Billy in Ventura, CA. Not sure what the charge is if you self-pay with him.

Pretty funny Jenna. You beat him to it. LOL!!!

$11,010.77 so far. That does not include the hospital bill. for some reason I have not received a bill from them yet. I have insurance (Medicare) so my cost was $1089.06.

This includes all the pre test and Dr. visits also. ie, psychiatric eval, nutritionist and so on.

My surgery was in Flagstaff, Arizona by Dr. Robert Berger

mine was approx 17,000 but, I only paid 150.00 consultation fee. John Deere paid for my surgery and all my fills for a full year. Of course my hubby's company changed insurance companies when I still had a few months of my contract left :) but, I was lucky to get the surgery taken care of.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
