I was looking forward to being banded but after really thinking && researching alot more I've decided to have the gastric sleeve instead, I think it will be best for me.
hello I really identify with your situation I started my journey a year ago yeah last September! well my weight stayed at 210-220 so after being denied 4 times even having my appeal denied! so I said you know what ihave to do what I have to do to get my surgery.I went against my rules and better judgment gained weight maintained it till I was finally aporoved. im 5'5 so my weight needed to be 240 so I got up to about 235 felt miserable. Strapped on a 5 pound weight ate a healthy meal put my keys and phone in my pocket wore layers. lol iknow it sounds crazy but I was finally approved in July.
I have a question about this my bloodwork showed that I had high levels of bacteria in my blood that form ulcers. I have my upper GI tomorrow, but my question is could I have ulcers im not sure what the symptoms are...
nite run your right im not trying to be rude but im being honest surgery is no quick fix && I do not know her particular situation as to why she went to Mexico but people who go there have more complications generally
why dont you give the band a chance instead of complaining && possibly discouraging others from surgery there's always a 50/50 chance with surgery in mexico seriously a hit && miss some reviews are good some are bad you should have went to a center of excellence to ensure quality care ihope you succeed with your weightloss best of luck<3
blondee they're not criticizing the doctors in Mexico any seminar you attend in the states they tell you if you dont decide to go through their facility atleast choose a center of excellence so you know for sure you'll have the very best treatment when you have your surgery.
omg @ Zen you look wonderful congrats to you on your success <3 your truly a inspiration to me not exactly on a preop diet ijust have to lose 5 pounds ihave yet to start it im a procrastinator ugh!
