I smoked up until the night before my surgery. I was supposed to quit one month prior but I just couldn't. I haven't had a cigarette since and it feels amazing!!! You can do it...willpower!

Always cold!
Thenewmrssmith replied to DanielleSleeve's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
This is too funny because pre-sleeve I was always hot and now I'm always freezing. Last night I slept with my slippers on my feet and my jacket on! I was in Target last week and couldn't even go near the refrigerated aisle...way too cold! -

I was sleeved on 7/4 by Dr Garcia. I highly recommend him and his team. The best decision I've ever made in my entire life!! -

Hi all! After many years of not wanting weight loss surgery (I'm scared of anesthesia) I've finally come to the reality that this is something I need to do! I have an appointment next week with a fabulous Doctor. Can anyone tell me what to expect?
-
Print out the insurance companies requirements and show it to him. That's what I did when my Dr was being stupid about the necessary paperwork.

Between my husband and I we had 2 iPhones and an iPad. The Marriott gave us three envelopes w/wi-fi passwords. We never paid anything and when the code expired (24 hr limit) they gave us three new codes.

I had surgery with Dr Garcia but I went through Ready4AChange. Maybe you might have better luck going that route? -
Did you feel like your laptop was safe?
Thenewmrssmith replied to Canary Diamond's topic in Mexico & Self-Pay Weight Loss Surgery
Nope, never. There's a safe in the room at the Marriott also. I left my iPhones and iPads in the room, no problem. Even at the hospital.. -
Now that it's been confirmed that insurance will not be paying for my surgery....can anyone who has used Dr Ariel Ortiz tell me what their process was like?
