If you have a perscription for pain meds you should be able to take them with you. I know I am bringing mine. Lisa

Hi Mellifrits, I was curious on how you are doing and how much weight have you lost so far, also how much food do you think you can eat in one sitting? I am a size 20 now and I do want to loose 100lbs, just still debating:confused1: and it sucks!! I wish I could just decide on one or the other darn it!! thanks Lisa

ya, I know what you mean about trying to keep weight off, I think we all do,lol:biggrin0: Yes I am getting excited, I am scheduled for the sleeve but I am still thinking about the plication surgery, the plication is what I was planning on getting from the beginning and then I have been reading on here about the surgery and now I am leaning twords the sleeve, I have 100 lbs to loose and I just think it might be better to get the sleeve with that much weight to loose. I dont know im still debating:confused1: Have a great night Lisa

Hi there, I am glad to hear that you had a good experiance. I am going to get mine on Nov 23rd, just was wondering, did you get the plication or the VSG? Did you have alot of pain after surgery?? Lisa~

Hi there, Welcome!! I am going to be getting my sleeve with Dr Rod on Nov 23rd but I am going to INT Hosp in TJ, I hope you have a great time and a speedy recovery, how much weight do you have to loose? Ms Lisa

Hi there, I know how u feel im getting nervous also, I get my surgery on Nov 23 and I all I can do is think about it every second of the day. I have never heard of Dr Pomba, just curious how much does he charge? I am getting sleeved with Dr Rodriguez. I am scared and excited all at the same time. You will do good!! Hugs, Lisa

Hi Jenepha, Ya I am still saving my money almost there though, how much weight do you need to loose now? Did you loose alot on with the band? Ya that sounds fustrating that you have to miss more work and save more money for another operation. Ya I hope that someone on here will be going the same time I am, that would be nice, talk to you soon Lisa

I have been hearing alot about bad things that are happening in TJ, I was wondering if there is anyone that has went to TJ to Dr rod at the INT hospital that can tell me how safe is the hospital and also how safe is the hotel there?? I was also wondering, how is my mom going to eat there while were there and how do we eat when we are at the hotel??? Lisa

Hi there, I was wondering how you are doing and how your weight loss is going? I know its almost been 3 months since your surgery and was curious if you have the same restriction on how much food you can eat and if you have lost any more weight. I finally have my surgery date for nov 23rd and I had to pick a surgery so I picked VSG but in reality I have not really decided if I am going to get it or the plication surgery, still up in the air they said that I can change surgery if I want to. I originally wanted to get the plication, but I do have 100 lbs to loose and so Im not sure if the plication would be the best for me or not. I'm still undesided darn it uhhh!!! Ms Lisa~

Hi Ka, Are you going to INT Hospital in TJ? I have also been eating like mad!! I ate a big ice cream cone tonight, it was good!:cursing: I dont think I have to start my preop till 2 weeks before, When are you starting yours? I am very nervous and still really worried about leaks and stuff. I hope everything goes good for you as well. I'm sure I will put on another 10 lbs befor I go on my diet. Talk to you soon, Lisa~
