  1. Thanks, Kelly! I'll probably be just fine. Happens that I'm a pain wimp, but still...
  2. Thanks for the feedback - very reassuring! Can't wait to share good news about results soon!

    September Sleeve Roster

    Sept. 22, dr. aceves
  4. Yay! I heard from my primary care doctor, therapist and psychiatrist today. They all are in enthusiastic support of my decision to get a VSG, and with the doctor I've chosen in Mexico! Wow. Didn't expect so much positive feedback from them. I'd been worried about how they'd react. It's fantastic! Full steam ahead now
  5. I would love to have a sleeve buddy! I'm scheduled for 9/22 w/Dr. Aceves. So excited! Nervous, too, don't get me wrong!
  6. I see you're going to Dr. Aceves! Me too! I'm scheduled for 9/22, so you'll have a couple weeks under your belt when I go. I'll be following your progress. Hurray for us! Karen
  7. This came across my twitter feed today. I know it's very relevant to feelings I'm having regarding upcoming VSG and so thought it could be for many of you too! Enjoy!

  9. I have surgery scheduled for 9/22 with Dr. Aceves in Mexico. I'm self-pay and cost is a huge issue. I have a friend, an RN, who had lap-band in Mexico with Dr. Joya 5 years ago and is still very pleased with her experience. I have the support of my primary care doctor, my psychiatrist, and my therapist on this decision. Very excited!

    introduction

    Hi everyone: I'm 55 and scheduled for surgery on 9/22. As with many of you, my main concern is recovery time due to age. Plus, I have 8.5 year old twins! Nonetheless, very exited to have a real way to address my long-standing food issue: quantity! Looking foward to our exchanges!
