No big deal don't like it anyway) Mostly maintaining despite being on the road for a while but now back to a very simplistic diet 🙌 Life is basically back to normal now but features are vacay selfies and food pics All in all very very good ❤

Same! I started my application process in March 2018 and had my surgery in April 2019. I was probably their most annoying patient lol! I did everything they said right away and when it was their turn to process things they would take FOREVER so I would keep calling to ask if there were any updates and they wouldn't say anything but I knew they were extremely annoyed. Anyway, I was beginning to lose hope when all of a sudden they were like okay everything looks good and we'll call you to schedule a date! It happened all of a sudden so stay hopeful! It'll happen eventually! Good luck! ❤️

I know several women in our county who have had the Gastric Sleeve surgery and who they used. I was just about set to go to their Dr but after having a background check done on a few, Dr Lopez Corvala was the only one who sounded solid. Dr Corvala only does 2 procedures a day and with a dedicated team where at least 1 is with you at every turn and on the premises all night if needed. We were picked up and returned at the airport in SanDiego by driver Rafeal . He was a charismatic tour guide with a medical pass that helps immensely when trying to reenter the Us. When first arriving at the Hospital Angeles the patient coordinator hand delivers you to all testing areas and escorts you to your room. She gave lots of insight into the whole thing. The nurses shifts and things run pretty much like the Us. They were so darling and professional but I got attached to a nurse Maria who took care of me quite a bit. All of the people we had contact with were very traditional and polite. While a few nurses didn't speak English just using goggle translator helped immensely. I think it was even kind of fun. Of course growing up in Arizona I did know lots of spanish but not so much the medical words. They run an incredible operation and I would trust them with a loved ones life. Hope this helps someone who may be just looking into who to use in Mexico Sent from my SM-G950U using BariatricPal mobile app

I'm schizophrenic I'm schizophrenic bipolar 1 extreme Mania and I've take 400 mg of Seroquel and I'm only doin 2 meal replacements and 3 oz of meat my dietitian for me on anything else keep me at 750 calories and I am now a stall for 6 weeks and I actually started gaining weight again and they have no idea what's going on as do I as I am now still continuing to exercise need help if anybody has any answers thank you

I'm grateful for this tool but it has turned me off from food altogether. I think all the changes has lead by body to boycott me. I want nothing when I eat I feel instant nausea. I decided to work on hydration. So at nearly 6 weeks post-op I'm still on shakes and crystal light. Sent from my SM-G965U using BariatricPal mobile app

I can most certainly relate! Food doesn't interest me as much as it did and I'm thankful for that. I've adopted good habits and I know its only up from here ... or shall I say "down" lol

I’m scheduled for Dec 23rd. Would love to keep in touch. I’m nervous but ready.

Congrats Guys,I'm getting excited now . let's remember each other as we go through this journey and surgery day. We all got pre op diets coming up and they are sometimes different . What is your Pre-op diet . Mine is two Protein Shakes and a lean meat and vegetable meal for dinner . oh and Jello, sugarless pops for snacks.. Not so bad.... Did I miss anybody??? we got four sets of twins so far @kia h @ChangingSeasons @mckrag14 @Confoozed84 @MyNextSeason @TotallyPosh @november11 @Jas592 @tracyluvjordan @hepwkayl @melflirt01 @OrguinDayciri, @Delestere @denise08k @ccorr 

I think I need to start tracking my food intake again because I entered what I've had so far today and it is not remotely as much calories as I thought. I am at 50g of carbs but I don't even want to say the calories because... yeah. LOL. I just eat the same thing like every day since so much was making me sick I got into a routine. And I guess that routine stuck at the intake level I was at at 4 months out and not where I should be one year out. I feel like I eat enough though, but I guess I'm not.

I have the same problem.....its so hard when everyone around you has food and your sitting there with a protein shake! Im on day 6...
