Oh my goodness....the crying! I'm 6 days post op and I have no pain, can get in a good amount of liquids, but the crying is awful. I don't even feel like myself. Plus I have no patience at all for anything..the dog, the 6 yr old...it's awful. I hope this part of it ends soon.

Yay!!! So excited for you! It's only day 2 of pre-op diet for me so it's not bad. ???? Let's keep in touch and support each other on our journey. I bet you are on cloud nine!

I'm two weeks away from surgery and starting to get nervous already....thank you for sharing your journey. It helps so much to hear from people who have made it to the other side. You look fantastic! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I'm having my surgery with Dr. Ariel Ortiz on March 24th. I have researched, asked questions, and researched some more and I feel very comfortable with my decision to go with Obesity Control Center. I hope your loan comes through! Such an exciting step. I would be happy to tell you all about my experience once I have the surgery!. Jamielogic had surgery with OCC and she was very helpful in giving me info. Us sleevers gotta stick together!

My surgery is with Dr. Ariel Ortiz. Anyone else???

My surgery date is March 24th! I.can't.wait. It would be awesome to meet someone who had the same surgery date and place!

Thanks for responding! I would love more details on your experience...how do I PM you?

That's an awesome weight loss so far! Thanks for responding....makes me feel better to actually hear from someone who went to the same place I'm going. I scheduled my surgery date (March 24) and I couldn't be more excited!

Hello all, I have never joined a forum of any type so I don't know how it all works but hopefully I'll get the hang of it. I don't have a confirmed surgery date (very close to making the decision) but wondered if anyone has been to Dr. Ariel Ortiz at OCC? I have researched Dr. Ortiz and the center very extensively and I feel pretty comfortable with my decision to go there. Any feedback would be great.
