i'm going with Dr Ortiz and OCC leaving for Mexico 1/12/14 surgery 1/13/14

good luck to all that have had thier surgeries done at OCC. I'm scheduled for Jan 13th flying in sunday the 12th, these posts on how it really is, have helped me immensely!! i'd be tortally freaking out of now for friend and sisters on this board. thank you thank you thank you ladies ( and gents), see yall soon

WOW thanks for the awesome truthful review I really enjoyed reading your adventures many thanks

i already talked to my dr about it PCP and he was like Yeah as long as you don't ask me to do the surgery i'm happy to help with taking care of you afterwards LOL. funny man.

hmm interesting, so it's like a detox period, I"ll have to try that Arts i've given up soda months ago and candy mostly now my thing is bread and pizza tho i mostly eat wheat bread anyway. and wheat pasta. LOVE rice and may miss that but well see,. i guess the liquid diet before and after surgery sh ould service to pretty much detox you from that stuff. ( hopefully) i'm pretty scared but committed to do my very best so well see what happens

thanks so much for the thoughtful replies. I'm really scared about it. i have severls friends that have been sleeved and they say that they cant tolerate any bread or sweets of any kind or white potatoes. not cant eat it as in it's not on my diet but can't physically eat it becasue it makes them sick. that was mnore along \the lines my mind is moving. how common is that? i totally understand I don't need to be stuffing my face with carbs and trying to beat the system, im so glad to hear many of you say i s\imply don't crave those things anymore I pray to God I'm one that will have that result. what do yall think makes tghe difference between people that want th at stuff sfter surgery and th ose that dont?

omg they can operate a mobile taco truck making tacos out of whatever they find,,,,,,'

love it love it love it LOL i get my best insperation at 3 am ha ha ha

me too. i have heard some ppl can tolerate this stuff in moderstion but many can't. i'm full set on go but i worry about this. I'm glad to see you are a little worried too. LOL maybe (hopefully i can take up exercising or cleaning house ??)

i can see your tummy running abound spreading evil capitolistic ideas all over mexico in your absence ROFL .

yeah me too. me i'm an emotional eater. I've gotten really into horse showing and want to get back to a lower weight to helo with my horsemanship. and be healthy of course

I'm super nervious. also did you have your galbladder out after the band and was th at becasue of the band? what are the pros and cons of having th em done th\ogether and what are the chances that the sleeve will cause your gallbladder to go bad? I can't wait to meet everybody PS is there a spell checker on th is board?
