I was sleeved 9/30 in Mexico. No problems swallowing but still feel real weak and have gas pains. One sleever said, "Don't trust a fart." Make that a golden rule I am telling you. I thought I had it all together in my head what I was going to eat and drink post op but I am having a senior moment. The doctor sent home sample meal plans for the liquid phase but it didn't include some of the things I was told I could have and am not sure how to work them in to his sample. I am just still a bit stunned I guess. The trip home was very rough walking in the airport then a bumpy 2 hour ride on a shuttle bus. New sleevers just need to chill for a bit and let the healing begin. Take things slow but watch out not to get dehydrated.

September 30th in Mexico

psharkee73 I wish we could stay at the same hotel but as far as I can see no one else is staying at the Del Rio. Wishing you the best.

bigred my date is 9/30/13.

I live near Beaumont, Texas and having sugery with Dr Quinones on Sept 30th. Staying at the Real Del Rio Hotel.

I am using Quinones and staying at the Real Del Rio.

I will be having my surgery on September 30th as well and will not have anyone with me. Which doctor are you using? Janice

Surgery planned for the first week of October. The only concern is I have no teeth and I read you have to chew your food real well. Right now I find i swallow a lot of food whole. Puree food can be a challenge with taste. I work with a team each week that go to resturants while we are out in the field. Thank goodness several girls are also going to be sleeved so we can share. Perhaps they will have some ideas. I am so thankful for this forum and plan to be here often God bless to all.
