pania

Cali girl I'm Pania. And I was 32 bmi when I had surgery. Surgery weight was 190. I was actually 200 but lost 10 during pre op. I have no commodities and I self paid in Mexico. I was tired of dieting and I wanted to make a conscious health decision for my self. The sleeve has been the best tool I could have asked for. Of course you have to do your part but the sleeve limits your eating drastically I'm 167 23 pounds lost at my one month mark. I'm in a stall now but I'm losing inches. I fit comfortable in a size12 shorts and I used to be a snug 16 in a months time I be lost more weight than I would have. It's all possible because if the sleeve. You will not regret your decision best of luck to you

I take the bariatric support multi Vitamin in cherry flavor that's chewable. It about $16 at the Vitamin Shoppe for 60 pills take one a day. They are made for bariatric patients and is very easy to digest plus they taste good. The manufacture is twin labs. Hope this helps

Jan3 surgery. Weight 190. Today 18 days post op 171. I am so happy if I add in the pre op diet of loosing 10# than I'm really doing well. But I like to keep it from surgery. So I am down 19 #. And I feel fabulous. I'm eating Greek yogurt. Watermelon oranges and grapes. Cottage cheese and protein drinks. Fuzzy navel flavor. Is so good. I love my sleeve

I was sleeved jan3. Surgery weight 190. Current weight 177. I am very pleased with results

I felt a little pain right after surgery but they give you meds in the iv to help with pain. I just slept and the next day i felt better. I kept walking the hall ways to release the gas that put into us that really helps. you'll enjoy dr. ortiz he speaks very good english and he is easy on the eyes. He is very attentive nad comes to talk with you daily. Right now im at the marriott in tj waiting for dr to see if i can get my drain unhooked and see if i can go home early.

Omg. I am low bmi 32.6. I am getting sleeved on jan 3. And I told everyone about my surgery. I don't care what they think I am doing this for myself. You either with me or not. No one is changing my mind. I am doing it with or without your blessings. I'm tired of dieting. I need a tool to assist me in my journey. I don't have any co morbidities but why wait until that happen??? I'm being proactive. And making the life changing decision now while I have that chance. I'm 38. I weigh 190 right now lost 10 pounds so far on pre op diet. I'm very excited to start this journey and hope to share my experience with everyone Oh by the way.
