I am having my sleeve surgery on November 7th in Tijuana with Dr. Garcia. My sister and her frienda are also having surgery on November 7th. We are all going together. I am from Vancouver, B.C. and they live in Saskatoon. We are so excited...

Hey Michell...how are you doing so far? I am doing great other than bouts with acid reflux..i sure hope it goes away after time and isn't a permanent issue. Hello Curious!! Doctors in our area don't know much about the Vertical Sleeve and there is about a 6 year waiting list to have it done in British Columbia so that is why I had my surgery in Mexico. I would highly recommend Dr. Fernando Garcia and The Mi Doctor Hospital in Tijuana. Dr. Garcia did the surgery for my sister, a friend, and myself the same day and we are all doing fantastic and losing weight as expected.

So just checking in with all of you. I was sleeved November 7, 2011 and I am down 35 lbs. Very happy with my results so far. I am into the 7th week so I am eating chicken, beef, mashed potatoes, cooked veggies, as well as the usual quick stuff like yogurt, cottage cheese, protein shakes cheese etc. Everything goes down good and the only time I have any trouble is of course when I eat too fast and do not chew, chew, chew. I am finding that I can drink water a lot easier and don't have to sip. My clothes are falling off and I am 4 dress sizes down..Whoo Hoo...This surgery was the best thing I have ever done for myself..
-
Oh yes...that just happened to me on Sunday. Had a scrambled egg for breakfast and ate it way to fast and didn't chew chew chew and along came the slimes. Managed to keep it down though..I sure don't want to have that happen again. So easy to forget that eating is supposed to be a slow process. Same with drinking water right now. I just want to down that glass of water but can't. Please someone tell me it will get better..I am 15 days being sleeved in Mexico with Dr. Garcia.

How long before you can have a glass of wine or martini after surgery? Christmas parties are coming up soon and was wondering if a glass of wine would be a bad thing? I was sleeved November 7th. Not saying right now I would have wine but can you im the future??

CoffeeBean, Thanks for the info... -
ok...so back from Mexico and I have been sleeved for 8 days..Whoo Hoo...feeling really good. I am down 20 lbs. from when I started the Pre-Op diet. Getting thru the Week 2 diet but can't wait for mashed potatoes and mushy foods cause the liquids are getting mundane.
-
Well I'm officially sleeved and recovering at home in Vancouver. Had the best experience in Mexico. Dr. Garcia and his team were the best. Couldn't have asked for better. Looking forward to week 2 and adding protein shakes. Not hungry at all on the clear liquid diet. I am down 15 pounds from the start of the pre-op diet which I did for 7 days so very happy so far. Very excited for those who are scheduled to be sleeved. It isn't a walk in the park but what surgery is? So glad I made this life changing discision. Good luck to you all and very happy to be on the loser's bench.
