Puree Time Up and Coming...
AmandaRaeLeo replied to AmandaRaeLeo's topic in Post-op Diets and Questions
Thanx for the suggestions. I have a yummy black bean and quinoa chili recipe that love. And I'm sure that will blend down well. Amanda Rae -
When I read about major complications, like with Iggychic, I can understand the regrets. If the regrets are, I wanna binge but I can't. I don't quite get it. I mean, that's the point of the surgery, right?

Just a thought, but maybe VSG has become the trend and people are leaping without doing enough looking? Or perhaps the food addiction part isn't truly being addressed preop? Maybe expecting a magical cure all? I'm not saying this is the case, but it's "food for thought."

Florance vs Mi hospital
AmandaRaeLeo replied to rollargirl's topic in Mexico & Self-Pay Weight Loss Surgery
We had our own hospital wing separate from everyone at Almater Hospital in Mexicali. Plus being at ground level we did our walking outside in the sun. You have to go with the choice that gives you peace of mind, Rollargirl. As you can see, we all feel passionate about our choice. -
How was you experience with Dr. Aceves?

My friend keeps calling me a "Cheater"
AmandaRaeLeo replied to lilstyler's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My BFF has been less than supportive as well... And I intend to talk with her about it. Not via text tho. Too much potential for miscommunication and imagined subtext. -
I'm also 32. I was sleeved in Mexico on 3/18. I'm now on full liquids. No puking or sliming. I hope to keep it that way! So far my recovery has been pretty decent. Knock on wood!

Florance vs Mi hospital
AmandaRaeLeo replied to rollargirl's topic in Mexico & Self-Pay Weight Loss Surgery
That will be a tough one for ppl to answer as they probably went to one or the other, but not both. And many feel loyal and protective of their hospital/surgeon. I think your best bet would be to list the pros/cons factual only of the two places and see which meets your needs. If there is no price difference then it should like comparing apples to apples.

Best of luck! A safe and successful surgery!

How do you know when to stop?
AmandaRaeLeo replied to thundathighsz's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Runny nose. Hiccups. I sneeze about six or more times in a row and get the hiccups. -

Oh no! The in house financing was the only way I made it work. I hope they are able to keep it as an option for others. -
One Day Post-op...GAINED 12#!
AmandaRaeLeo replied to mwrarr's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I refuse to become fixated on the scale. I waited 2 weeks until my doc appointment to weigh in and was down 27lbs from surgery. My next doc appt is in 3 weeks. I will weigh in again then. -
