    Where are the 50s ???

    You can gain wieght back if you don't eat right. If I ate high calorie high sugar milk shakes all day I would not lose weight. Same with Cakes and cookies. Eat protien first than veggies than healthy fruits. You will loss fast and keep it off.

    With any life changing event you have retrain yourself. I think people get nauseea is because they think they can eat like before surgery. You have to llearn the sign of being full. You will throw up if you eat to much. Certain food still make me sick. Especailly fried or greasy foods. The old saying slip slip chew chew and walk walk reaally works. Hope this helps.

    You will be amazed how much better you will feel. I had my surgery in Sept. and I have lost over 60 pounds and doing things I have never done before. Just got back from a cruise. I swam with the stingrays in a bathing suit. I walked the Mayan ruins. There was a lot of hills and walking and I did it without havving to sit down every other second to catch my breathe. And that is just the beginning. I signed up for my first 5K which is in April. It is the best thing I ever did for myself.
  6. Hey girl, I am doing great. How are you doing? I am so glad I did this. One of my stitches wont come out so I have to see my doctor for that but other than that everything is working good.

  7. Hi Lori, how are you doing?

  8. I was sleeved September 20th and feeling great. I am having problems with the sweetness of the protein shakes but I forced myself to drink them.With pre-op and post -op I have lost 22 lbs. I am doing great. I find it hard to stay in the house I been shopping everyday and walking the park when its not raining.In two week I will start going to the gym. Next week I will start mushies and I can't wait. My stitches are bothering me and I can not take them myself so I have an appointment with my doctor to removed them. Glad to hear everyone is doing good.
  9. did you take your own stiches out or did you have your dr do it? I have been in contact with Lakisha and she is doing well

  10. I was there Sept. 20th through Sept. 23rd and the whole time I was there I never felt unsafe. I even knew about the robberies and I still went. I feel the forum favors certain doctors over others. I am sure if we dug alittle we would find some bad event that happened to patients at other doctors in Mexico. I think I find it funny if someone post about Dr. Aceves or Dr.Kelly, they get many responses. If someone post something positive about their experience with Dr. Almanza, you either get no responses or some counter posts something negative about him. Just who pays for this site?

    San Diego Hotels

    I stayed at the Days Inn/ sea world. I think it was under $65 a night. I didn't get free shuttle service to the hotel from the airport but they do offer free shuttle to the airport in the morning but make sure you pre- arrange it with the shuttle driver.
