ty i was thinking once i have this i would like to blend the fruit in my shakes so good to know that i can,

i have only told 3 friends, just because i had to tell someone, lol. my hubby of course knows, i am not telling anyone else, i do not want any negative feed back, nor do i want to hear oh u have lost before then gained it back, once i have the surgery and the skinny me comes out if anyone asks all i am going to say is lifestyle change, try it.

i still feel comfortable with the plication, i have spoken to a lot of people that have had this and are doing fine, i guess it is what u r comfortable with, as for the the grehlin yea that is not removed, but even if it was you get that back within a year after surgery, so have to deal with that at one point. ty for your experience tho i hope all is well for u now

Gl. Keep us posted, u will do great

I agree no matter what u have as a tool u have to re train yourself on eating well and exercise. pizza maybe 1slice every 2 months as a treat, but then again u get the taste of bad food head goes I have her now, leads to other bad foods. By the sounds of it u have no close support to give u the encouragement to go down the right path, u need support is there no support group where u r, family, friends to keep u on the right track. Before looking at anymore surgery u have to believe u can do this. I wish u the best of luck

U r so lucky to get where u live, instead of traveling, 10 year waiting list here

I am having mine next week same worried about nutrition etc, vitamins which at our age we should be taking anyway right as for nausea yep I hear ya there, I will hold it back if I have to but I found this patch u put behind your ear and it stops the nausea, I do truly believe if u have nausea longer then a few days after surgery then prob eating to fast or drinking, my friend went last month she was sick for a it after surgery few hrs was fine. Read more on it we r all nervous, excited but it is a huge tool to help us out. I am going for the plicating sleeve, because I am more comfortable with that, Have read so much in hear and feel better with my decision gl. U will do great

gl in your new you,

i am getting the plicating sleeve march 8th by dr corvala, i chose this because i am just to scared to get my stomach cut, and have anything foreign in my body, once this is done i have about 80 lbs to lose, which i think can be done with this operation, wishing you all luck with the sleeve....

hi i am 54, go in next thursday for my surgery, getting a tad bit nervous, feel this is the best option for me,

why did u chose this one, i have not heard that name either. also is he in a hospital or clinic? on u tube i checked out last night, they have video on the procedures and explains and u can see what they do. plicating sleeve i looked up. watch for the ones that have lower cost, i was told this is not always the best choice!

gl looking froward to your posts on how things went for ya

good for you, yes i agree it seems now a days everything is bad for us , lol. you have to do what is best for you not what some may say, my Dr is all for this, up in canada it is a bit different we opt to go get this done, we do not have to go thru anything, although i did, my dr sent for blood work etc, just to be sure i was good to go

i always say get down to the weight u r comfortable with, inches are just as important, if u think 220 is the # then wtg, maintain maintain, is the next step, after u get to what u want, i am 5'7" they say my weight should be 140, my gawd i would be skin and bones,,lol.

wtg,

i agree as a yoyo person myself, it was hard, and then more depressing when you gained it back, and usually gained more then when you started to lose the first, second , third time, when u got to your goal, your thought process is oh i can have a little of this and that, before you know it you are back to square 1. I agree it is your decision and only you know if you can maintain on own after the loss, i wish you the best of luck

just would be nice to know if we wanted we could, i probably will stick to water till i reach my goal,, but mind over matter if told we can not, then what happens , we want, have to look at big picture the thinner newer us,

i was just thinking this myself, wondering hmmm, can we have a drink or 2, i am the same very social drinker, mostly in summer at the lake, i know we are to stay away from fizzy drinks, but a nice wine would be nice.

wtg, great feeling, after years of losing and gaining, sometimes the # of lbs does not matter, as long as those inches come off. can not wait till i post that i am a 16 again, keep up the good work

how do u add the ticket factory.com on here, i will be adding the app on my iPad, but have to wait till hubby gets home cause i am so bad at remembering my password lol

his credentials are awesome, he also teaches other drs this procedure only 2 days in hospital so 4 days total u r gone 1 to get there 1 to spend in hotel after released, and then home we r staying in san diego very inexpensive hotel but clean if you send me your email i could send u the # to contact who i spoke to here to help u

omg, i must be more anxious then i thought or reading to many blogs,lol. dr juan antonio lopez Corvala he is in Tijuana Mexico i had to fill out a medical history, this was sent to him the next day i had my date

good news, i go march 8th to see him

wtg looking great
