I don't know Juanito. Our coordinator's name is Omar. We went to the coast about 40 minutes away could be what your talking about every thing went great! Thanks!

Took my daughter to Mexico this week for her gastric sleeve. Such wonderful attention she has received during this process. I'm so excited for her as she starts this new journey to a healthier, happier girl!

Hi Tommy Checking in with you. I am currently in home with my daughter Tijuana, she had her sleeve done on Monday. Every thing went great and Dr Illan is wonderful! So is his coordinator Omar.

I have a friend who got her sleeve done by him and also had nothing but good things to say. Good luck with your decision. One thing I didn't know, since I haven't been to Mexico in like 15 years we need passports to get there so now I'm scrambling for expedited pass cards going to the passport agency on Monday.

Any one using Dr. Illian?

Hi Tommy! Congratulations on your decision! I'm a revision lap band to sleeve October 5, 2015. My daughter Alexandra is scheduled for surgery with Dr. Illian June 6. I had mine done in the states but she is 17, three months shy of 18. And not only will my insurance not cover it because she's not 18 the hospitals won't do it if I pay cash, if they are board-certified because of their insurance, until she's 18. She'll be a senior in high school next year and really can't take the time off after she turns 18 to get the surgery done. So I'm going to direct her to this thread so she and you and others here on this platform can get to know one another and talk about upcoming life-changing experience.

$15K for me and I had it done in Houston.

Went shopping today for a A fitted suit jacket and matching pants for an upcoming job interview. I'm so excited that I was able to shop in a regular department instead of the big ladies section or a store like Lane Bryant's!! I've gone from a size 22 to a size 16. I'm guesstimating when reach my goal I'll be between size 8-10[emoji4]

I don't know about a juice fast, there's a lot of carbohydrates in juice. might you consider protein shakes instead?

Stop what?

Yes I remember your a revision too! And our weight loss is the same! Isn't that good to know! Sometimes I feel like the The tortoise in the race with the hare. I'm 5'4", female current weight 216, I can almost touch Onederland, but it will take me about 2 more months to get there. How about you? Catherine

We are very close in our weight loss. I was also sleeved on October 5th and I'm down 46 pounds. It is nice to hear about other success, and to know Someone else has a similar weight loss as me.

Congratulations!!!

Sorry, I'm just seeing this now, I consume no more than 800 cal on most days with some days 600 and occasional days 1000. My average loss is about 1.5 pounds a week, pulse, I walk/jog for 30 min 6x a week.

That is such an inspiring story!! Happy for you!
