Rodriguez and Beliteweight
Ms.AntiBand replied to Jesser's topic in Mexico & Self-Pay Weight Loss Surgery
My daughters and I have great experience with Dr Rod. Not with he sleeve, but we were banded by him and as a dr and professional staff we by all means recommend them all. We had him in Acuna and Juarez so can't honestly say anything about Tijuana staff .. If different. I was sleeved by Dr Ponce De Leon of TJ and he works at the same place as Dr Rod does when he works Tijuana -
My "chew n spit" moments are the sudden realization of "WTH.. Why am I eating this?", and I so I don't. I never premeditate it so maybe it's a lesser charge of tummy slaughter as opposed to 1st degree

You know.. If this forum had a time out corner I'd put you in it... Shame on you for saying what you said the way you said. *shakes head in disgust*

Does walking get easier after the sleeve?
Ms.AntiBand replied to becogolfer's topic in Fitness & Exercise
Yep.. At first my husband couldn't understand why I wanted to do this, ( as in vanity) but I had to explain to him about all the different pain I was experiencing all due to my weight -

Ms.AntiBand replied to becogolfer's topic in Fitness & Exercise
Just losing 20 lbs my first couple weeks made a huge difference on my knees. As soon as I was nearing 190 and my knees starting hurting daily and I knew I had to do something. Glad I did. Things are good -
Umm.. As its always been noted all drs are different in post surgery diet, but lol.. I think acidity is one thing you're supposed to avoid and a lemon is pretty high in acid
-
LOL.. I had to read your post three times before I followed I say, YOU GO GIRL! You are for fortunate to do this so young and be on the way to a healthy and thinner life this early. I wish I could have one this 25 years ago

I would let them know that the dr is going to fix your tummy and you're going to have a bandaged boo boo that needs to be taken care of. That why they'll understand about being gentle around your surgery area. Word it age appropriately for each of them.

Gosh, I missed the "low BMI bigger sleeve" part. Yikes! Who was your dr? There are 100's of us that went to MX with low to very low BMI and our sleeves are just like the higher ones. Never heard of a dr doing this and I'm sorry you found one -

I lost 20 lbs the first two weeks post-surgery and NOTHING until recently and that's because I got the flu. Some of us are in long a$$ stalls and maybe that's what your experiencing -
Yep.. That's right! I'm soooo happy I had the flu! I lost 5 lbs! FINALLY, after a several week stall I don't care what made the scale move

Good for you taking control of a healthy life and future. Of course, first off you're doing it or you, but dang those kiddos are a huge motivator aren't they! Love 'em!

Taking medication not crushed.
Ms.AntiBand replied to FatMamaw's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Some meds specifically state not to crush so ive been taking my meds since the day if surgery. I don't know how a pill could be a sleeve problem other than swallowing difficulties -
Hooray For The Flu!

for those needing to lose a few lbs via the flu -
Hooray For The Flu!
Ms.AntiBand replied to Ms.AntiBand's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Yep.. All better thank you! I have always worried about vomiting while sleeved. I imagined me puking my stomach out.. Yeah, I am strange. -
At least get your fluids in and purée some chicken and put it in chicken broth. Stay hydrated and safe

BCBS will not pay for sister who works for City
Ms.AntiBand replied to JazzyJan's topic in Insurance & Financing
Each work place policy covers different things and it sounds like your sister's work place policy excludes wls? Or does her policy include wls, but she is being specifically denied? -

Omg.. What a sweet loving mom! You're so blessed. Don't worry about success.. Once you're on your way you will love your journey and always see the light at the end of the tunnel.. Or scale in our situation -
What is your biggest fear after surgery?
Ms.AntiBand replied to lotti's topic in Mexico & Self-Pay Weight Loss Surgery
Mine was any type of medical needs after surgery. My insurance will not cover anything wls related.. Including urgent or life saving means.
