  1. Happy 35th Birthday JenniferJS!

  2. Hi Jennifer, just checking in...how are you doing? Have you lost alot of weight are you super skinny now?? :)

  3. You're due to fly out in 2 days!! Aren't you nervous? You'll be fine, but It is scary taking that BIG step!

    Anyone getting banded in January

    Nevermind about not replying...lol...I still don't have the board down yet...oops. But anway, my surgery is 1-19. :thumbup:January 19th is my day!! Dr. Ortiz in MX. Why hasn't anybody replied to this thread in Jan? Looks like Nov or Dec was the last update....I wanna know how you guys are doing?!
  5. I was soooooo scared, but had to pretend like I wasn't because my husband was so against it. Once we got there and he met Dr. Ortiz, he relaxed (and so did I) he's a competent and confident surgeon who does this surgery so often he could do it in his sleep and with people with as low a BMI as we have, it's his least risky surgery and you will be up and about the next day-no problem. You are taller than me and slimmer so you should see quick results!! Send me some pics and keep me up to date on your progress!! :)

  6. When people say protein drinks...what do they mean? Slim Fast is 10g of protein and 5g of fiber. Is that a good 'protein drink'? Thanks guys.
  7. Thanks for the reply. Dr. Larson here in West Palm Beach will take me. He trained with Dr. Ortiz and is very comfortable with his work. THANK GOD

  8. Oh and what was your experience like going to Mexico and what about pre-op (pre-trip) jitters?

  9. Hello gorgeous! I am Jennifer. I live in West Palm, FL. Flying to CA on the 18th. Surgery with Ortiz Jan 19th. I am 240 - 5'9. I'm so excited by your pictures. You look amazing. I hope it's okay if we communicate. Talk soon..

  10. dr vaughn will not take mexico patient i had my surgery in denver with dr k

    dr vaughn charges 100 a fill or unfill

  11. Hi :) Just doing research online - wondering if I should do lap band. I"m thinking yes. I might go the Mexico route with Dr. Ortiz. I am self pay. Does Dr. Vaughn do fills for surgeries done in Mexico? How much does he charge you?

     

    Thanks...You look great!
