Know anything about Dr Alvarez
Camel_Cracker replied to nan42's topic in Weight Loss Surgeons & Hospitals
So is it a full liquid diet or clear fluids? Susan is on vacation until Wednesday I think. -
Know anything about Dr Alvarez
Camel_Cracker replied to nan42's topic in Weight Loss Surgeons & Hospitals
I'm scheduled for my surgery with Dr. A on June 13th and have sent off my 1,000 deposit check. I don't have my materials yet and am curious as to what the 2 week pre-op liquid diet consists of. I have already stocked up on protein powders and drinks, so I really hope that's part of the plan. So, if you had surgery with Dr. Alvarez, what did you eat/drink pre-op -
POLL Should I have them redone to make them perfect... Breast pictures
Camel_Cracker replied to princess_n_thep's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
I can see a small difference with the arms up, but when they're down, they look perfect. Just get some horizontal barbell piercings and they'll be even more exciting to show off. As to this thread being inappropriate, I totally disagree. It's brave for you to show what many of us are wanting to see... the results of weight loss and our potential. You look smokin' hot!!! -
What to take with you to Mexico
Camel_Cracker posted a topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
So I'm getting banded in Mexico in a little over 2 weeks. I am taking my birth certificate, Texas DL, digital camera, body pillow, a couple of trashy romance novels and my protein powders. What else should I take with me for before/ after surgery?:confused2: -

What to take with you to Mexico
Camel_Cracker replied to Camel_Cracker's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I will just be over the border and only for 3-4 days, 3 of those post-op, so I don't plan on sight seeing much. I've lived on the border before and the amusement is gone for me. I need to take something for gas right? -

We'll be banded on the same day.... I wish June 13th would just be here already!!!! I eat, sleep, and breathe lap-band ever since I decided to go through with the surgery and especially when I rounded up the money to pay for it.

I've gotten a body pillow (I'm a stomach sleeper) and have stocked up on Isopure from GNC. I also went to a half-price book store and stocked up on trashy romance novels and other fiction fun.

Suggestions Please On Best Tasting Protein Shakes
Camel_Cracker replied to slim2be's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am 2 1/2 weeks pre-op and trying to get a head start on my 2 wk liquid diet. I spent 100 bucks on a variety of Protein Drinks, including a huge jug of GNC's Isopure powder.... strawberry flavored. It mixed up pretty well, dissolving and turning into the lovliest shade of public restroom handsoap-pink. I mixed one scoop (about 20g of protein) with 9 ounces of Water and stirred. The first sip made me gag, so I thought of a way to get myself to drink it. I imagined that I had just met my Mother In Law (will meet her in 3 weeks) and that she had made me a popular beverage from her country. I imagined the disappointment/anger she would feel if I were to gag and/or spit it out as I really wanted to... That worked for me. I alternated between imagining my MIL and holding my nose and taking huge gulps until it was allllll gone. Not really as bad as I expected for a GNC powder though. Also felt like a buffalo shopping at GNC. :biggrin: -

Been over weight all my life
Camel_Cracker replied to almostnormal's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
I am currently 5'6", 306, a size 22/24. I have my surgery with Dr. Guillermo Alvarez in Piedras Negras MX scheduled for June 13... Haha!! Friday the 13th. My age and clothing size have corresponded since I was 12 and a size 12.... size 16 when I was 16... When I turned 26 last year I started Weight Watchers and lost 31 pounds just to turn around and gain 25 of that back. I can celebrate the fact that I'm 27 years old in a size 24, but I want to be a size 12/14 by my 10 year high school reunion. -
