Anyone using Dr. Alvarez?
greersc replied to MississippiQueen's topic in Mexico & Self-Pay Weight Loss Surgery
You are in great hands!! He is amazing , so skilled. Honestly, you are blessed to have him -
I think right now the most pressing needs are your nutrition. If all you can do is Protein Shakes and gummy Vitamins twice a day then do that. I puree my soup add a little half n half to the chicken broth. I drink skim milk a lot. Even if you purée Beans and veggies with chicken broth do that. Nutrition is no. 1

I am only 3wks out...but baking doesn't bother me. I don't care to eat t. It's weird. I have no want for it, but I will do the cookies and go to Cosco to get some foods. I guess I will see how I handle it

November sleevers - what are you doing to prepare?
greersc replied to McButterpants's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Wow that's so frightening . I am so sad to hear that. I am trying my best to do as I am told, and continue on the puréed foods..veggie soups... -
This is an emotional week,even without complications. Just do as much as you can, and push thru...first 2wks are the toughest. Bleep trying to drink your fluid softly, let the water slide around then swallow ..fluids most mp. Good lick

Going To Mexico Alone
greersc replied to shungsleeve's topic in Mexico & Self-Pay Weight Loss Surgery
Oh goodness, so sorry to hear all of this. I was sleeved in Mexico with Dr Alvarez on Nov 11 I am not quite 2weeks out. I had no problems with the nurses or staff. They were with me 100 % nothing missing, always available. I also had no drains. My incisions look like a plastic surgeon did them . I am doing great, no issues or problems. Get 90 grams protein and 64 oz fluid in daily. He is with Endobariatric.com and does obesity chat and youtube videos with others telling their experience. Go look! Good luck -
I wore my bra..loser and placed a cushion under the band and incision..still using it now. Had mine nov 12. Good luck!!

S Barbie, are you losing any hair yet? I am doing fantastic and so very happy, I feel so good. I agree, on the Monday what is my diet today. At 60 lbs I am just wondering when you noticed your hair thinning..and were there any bald spots? -
I just finished this phase, jello, unjury chicken broth,chicken broth, unjury strawberry protein...I used skim milk, skim milk, fruit juices, clear. No pulp, vanilla unjury protein with skim milk..hits a lot of protein, decaf tea no cinnamon. Good luck

I am doing really good, the first week is the hardest shofar.. Doing better this week. Not as emotional..on the puréed and that's tough to figure out. I guess it's a learning curve.just focusing on my protein and water still with a little applesauce and creamy soup...
