Thinking go to Mexico for me Sleeve
Moe33 replied to nita2013's topic in Mexico & Self-Pay Weight Loss Surgery
Absolutely no problems with after care at all! Docs are thrilled with weight loss. The Mexico Bariatric Center sends all of your records with you. It lists everything they did and what they used. You have access to a NUT. No problems whatsoever. No recovery issues, best decision ever! -
Thinking go to Mexico for me Sleeve
Moe33 replied to nita2013's topic in Mexico & Self-Pay Weight Loss Surgery
My sister and I were both sleeved at Mexico Bariatric with Dr Valenzuela -awesome experience and we are both convinced it's the best decision we ever made! -
Anyone booked with Dr. Cabrera or Valenzuela and staying at the Marriott?
Moe33 replied to MumtazG38's topic in Mexico & Self-Pay Weight Loss Surgery
Good luck!! It's a great journey! It's been 3 months and I'm down 40lbs!! Love my sleeve! It makes you aware of things you never realized and holds you accountable! -

Never take advice from someone who isn't where you want to be! -

Moe33 replied to chilihot59's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I'm in Lockport and my sister and I were both sleeved in Mexico on June 24th. Both of us are doing very well and super exited by our new lives. Since 2 week pre-op I've lost 26lbs and my sister 34lbs. Since surgery, exactly 1 month-16lbs for me and 20 for her! You will rock this! It's a learning experience but it's not that hard, it's a lot of listening to your body. I've yo-yo dieted for 40 years and never knew this existed until February when a friend had it done. Absolutely awesome experience-so worth it! -

HELP! Need to choose between Dr. Aceves and Dr. Louisiana Valenzuela
Moe33 replied to Timeforchange20's topic in Mexico & Self-Pay Weight Loss Surgery
My sister, myself and 2 friends have all been sleeved by Dr Vanezuela with zero complications or issues! We all totally feel that it was the best medical experience we've all had. I would highly recommend Mexico Bariatric Center with Dr Vanezuela -a great experience!! -
You will do great! I was sleeved 6/24 in Mexico and it was a great experience! Embrace the journey!

I'm 3 1/2 weeks out and had maybe half a lass and it was ine, no problems at all.

Average loss with the sleeve is 60% of excess weight?!?!
Moe33 replied to Nicolanz's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories
My Doc said 60% is the sleeve, 20% nutrition and 20% is exercise-which makes perfect sense. -
You can get in 390 calories and 49 grams of protein in your morning shake, then the rest of the day isn't so hard. I make my morning shake with skim milk, 1/2 cup plain fat free greek yogurt and 1tablespoon natural peanut butter. I use chocolate protein powder so I get peanut butter choc flavor and the Greek yogurt cuts down the sweet-yummy.

Moe33 replied to MumtazG38's topic in Mexico & Self-Pay Weight Loss Surgery
My sister and I were both just sleeved by Cabrera and Vanezuela on June 24th. It was an excellent experience and we are both very happy with how the whole experience unfolded. My sister is in hospital management and she said that the care was first rate and was very impressed with the hospital/surgeon/patient communication. We could not find one bad thing about the experience. -
Any body got sleeved on their birthday?
Moe33 replied to chibabyy's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was sleeved 3 days before my 50th birthday! Best present for me!!
