Dr Aceves credentials
Brendasgonnalose replied to Oregondaisy's topic in Weight Loss Surgeons & Hospitals
I bought Nexium Mupps 3mo supply and a box of Supertol cost $158. I could have done with just 2 week supply of the Mupps as they will give you a 2 week supply and a 4 dose box of the Supertol. By the 30 day point I was able to swollow sm. whole or 1/2 lg pills with no problem. Should have bought Omiperzol 20mg. My mom purchased this, 1 box had 2 60cap bottles and was $16. This is what I take now and have to get it at Walmart 42 caps for $18. For the trip home I took Chickem bollion cubes, and the drink mix for Water, asked for apple juice on the plane, they also brought cup of hot watere for the broth. Hope this helps you DJackson.

What to tell your boss??
Brendasgonnalose replied to soon2bskinny's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I had surgery on Tuesday and returned to work the following Thursday, I could have gone back earlier as I don't have a strenuos job, but I felt I need the time and it helped as I would tire easily during the day and the naps helped. Brenda -

Highest Weight: 335 lbs Surgery Wieght: 322 lbs Current Wieght: 272 lbs Not a bad week,the 1 lbs loss was on from Tuesday, then Thursday went on a business trip, one that usually I gained 5-10lbs due to the wining and dining that they do on these trips. So I wasn't watching my diet as closely. But with my wonderful sleeve I didn't gain a a lbs. YAHOO!!! Back to the high Protein and lots of water. Brenda -

Thanks Carolyn and PNW it was a pretty good feeling to know I wouldn't have to ask for the extender any more when I fly. I still feel squished but it's not as bad now and will only get less squished as time goes by. Love my sleeve more everyday!! Brenda -

This is the first time I have an NSV to report. I when on a business trip this week , flew to Mn. by plane, asked as I was broarding the plane for a seat belt extender as I usually have, Sat down in my seat decided to try the seat belt without the extender just to see if it would fit and low and behold it not only fit but I was able to cinch it tighter by 2-3 inched. On the trip home I got daring and tried to put the tray table down (I always try without being able to use it) and it went down flat and I didn't have to force it. I haven't been able to do eithere for more years than I can remember, next time maybe I can get the armrest down to. Brenda -
That's good to hear. Did you have to drink the ikky drink? Yes still planning on going down via San Diego. Still need to coordinate it with Nina. Hopefully over a weekend.Brenda

We'll be moving over to make room on the losers bench for you. Looking forward to watching your progress in this thread. Brenda -
