Ok, so as many of you know I am scheduled to have my surgery on April 2nd in Mexico. I'm self pay and have no issues going into Mexico.

I'm having Dr. Ortiz @ Obesity Control Center preform my surgery and they have sent me link to watch webinars. I found a video of the surgery I will be having.

While it's NOT easy to watch and not everyone wants or should to see something like this, I thought I would share it for those of you who might. I thought it was pretty cool and feel better about it now knowing exactly what will be done.

Thanks for posting this link, Julie. I'll admit that I barely got past the first incision. I've read about the procedure and have decided that's plenty of information for me. :rolleyes: Strange, I know, coming from the woman who typically wants to know about every little detail.

 

As I tried to watch the video, I kept thinking about how thankful I am for the highly skilled, caring individuals who work in the medical profession. Thanks, Deb! I absolutely could NOT do it.

Totally understand Elizabeth. I knew there would be a few ppl who didn't wish to watch it. I watched those birthing videos too and that completely freaked me out, but I still had 3 children so I wasn't too worried about watching this one.

Funny thing, I have stood next to surgeons as they performed surgery, been witness to births and c-sections(yuk), have had several surgeries myself but am too chicken to watch video for fear I might change my mind.LOL.

I understand. I felt the same way. Once my surgery is over, I am going to try to watch it again. :)

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
