Kathy I would be frustrated too... I leave for MX in a couple of weeks so I'm not a pro at this but here is what I know from my research. 1- Muscle weighs more than fat, so if you have started working out and you're loosing inches not weight you're still doing great (it's not all about the scale) 2- Make sure you're burning more calories than you are taking in. 3-Try to think back to when you stopped loosing weight.... is there something you added back into your diet around that time? If so try cutting it back out. 4- Absolutely check your lab work to see if there is an issue. Hope this helps, you are in my thoughts and prayers!!! CDC

Raven, I am heading down there in a couple of weeks and wasn't scared until I purchased the plane tickets, now it just seems so real. Omar was telling how they just had a patient that felt so good that she went site-seeing in SD I am assuming it must have been you. I can't believe you have lost so much so fast, I hope I have the same results. Good luck and keep up the good work, I'm sure it can't be easy. CDC

Is turkey considered a mushy food?

I am scheduled with Dr Abril on 3/19 for the Plication Sleeve. I am so SCARED now! I was fine until I booked the flight, now it just seems so real. I can't believe it's finally going to happen and I will have the opportunity to be skinny again. Is anyone else going to be in Mexicali around that time? Anyone have any information I should know before heading down there? If you have had the surgery, what was your pre/post op diet? liquid diet 7 days prior & 10 after? And did it make you feel weak? I have to drive like 8 hours the 2 days prior to flying to San Diego and I am worried about being weak and sleepy. *** Does anyone have pics of their incisions so I know what to expect after surgery and once they start to heal??
