I couldn't fight my insurance. I have no secondary conditions and have only 80-90 pounds to lose. Please don't judge my decision to have surgery. didn't make it lightly. I think most people would think im crazy to have surgery with so "little" to lose. -

vegan diet
americangirl302 replied to americangirl302's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I don't eat eggs. Unless of course they are already in cookies or cakes. I use rice milk. I do cheat with cheese sometimes. Never ever eat jello. I do eat seafood sometimes. But never meat. Im worried about getting enough protein too -

I guess I need to ask them more about it. Im going to Mexico so I already feel like im not getting enough info. Ya know, no preop qualifications. No nutrition classes or anything. -

Hi. I chose Mexico because my insurance doesnt cover it. Its 1/3 the price in Mexico. I did a lot of research before making that decision. I chose Dr.Joya after much research also. Scary but praying this is the right decision -

any recommendations for getting the needle in the veins more easily?
americangirl302 replied to joydenstar's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
As a nurse I agree. If you tell us your very hard to get, it does psyche us out. Lol. But rest assured, everyone has veins. I work in the emergency room and get lots of dehydrated patients, but they always have a findable vein :-)
