Post op expectations from self pay Mexico
A_new_sara replied to Anna T's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm going to Dr. Gerardo Garcia Alvarez at Bariatric Mexico in Cabo. I have 8 people who work with my boyfriend who've all gone to this exact same Dr and hospital in the last year.. they literally refer to it as the Beverly hills of Mexico. I'm really looking forward to being treated so well at such an affordable cost. Their coordinator takes great care of you from the moment you open the conversation, all the way until you are on your flight home. They take care of every single detail! Good luck to you!! -

Just a tip.. unscented spray on deodorant works amazing on those chaffing areas.. I've used it for years in the groin and under my tummy fold, especially in the summer.. Sent from my SM-G955U using BariatricPal mobile app

No, I submitted an application where I entered all my medical information, and for me (since I have a lapband) I had to go have an endoscopy done and send them the results.. other than that you go down a day early to get blood work and everything done.. then have your surgery. They are pros over there. It's all they do. My friend who went were out of recovery within a few hours, start to finish.. back to work within a week. They have a coordinator that works with you VERY CLOSE, to guide you through the entire process, answer any question ect.... They were a bit more expensive than other places but for that standard of care it's worth it to me. My health isn't something I want to bargain with Sent from my SM-G955U using BariatricPal mobile app -

I'm older than you, but just beginning.. I wish I started at your age [emoji16].. I'm 38 and revising to a sleeve in July in Cabo. Sent from my SM-G955U using BariatricPal mobile app -
I've been doing keto for the last couple of months. Up until this week I wasn't sure if my revision to a sleeve would pan out so I needed to really dig in and better my lifestyle. I love it, and plan on keeping it up once I'm sleeved (but I think it'll be slightly easier) my biggest hurdle as it is, is finding lapband friendly AND keto friendly foods. But I'm down 24 lbs so far. I also add the keto OS drinks. That adds ketones to your body and helps a TON Sent from my SM-G955U using BariatricPal mobile app

Not going to apologize for being vain
A_new_sara replied to ryan_86's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I am going through this right now as I prep for my revision. My boyfriend keeps dropping comments about how I "better not cheat" I'm "doing it for myself" ect.. I would give anything if he could read what's in my heart. Yes I want to look better, but I DO want to look better for him. I want to be his arm candy, I want his friend's to stop thinking he has the girlfriend with the "pretty face" I want to be able to wear lingerie and feel sexy. Yes, I'm doing this for myself, but I'm also doing it for him. I feel like he's bracing for me to run off.. I just wish he could read my heart. Sent from my SM-G955U using BariatricPal mobile app -
