Hi everyone, I'm scheduled at long last to have my VSG surgery with Dr Aceves on July 14th!! woohoo!! I'm excited and scared, just like I'm suppose to be I suppose *lol* Looking forward to getting to know more of you for both support and for support as my journey continues. If there are others going to Mexicali around this time give me a holler please! I'm hoping to run into a couple of others from this forum. Best wishes to all, pre and post ops!

Just think, soon you'll be sleeved and then the feeling of relief sets in as you begin to see the weight drop and your health improve. We look forward to following your progress. Good luck!

You're getting your sleeve in just a few days! Congratulations!

Boy, this is starting to look like a Dr. Aceves board. He is wonderful and my whole experience at the hospital and in Mexicali was too.

I am really excited that we are getting so many new people here at sleeve talk.

Tick tock is right -- we'll miss you by 1 day -- DF is having his surgery on 7/11 and we will be on our way home on 7/13. You'll love the entire experience. I had my sleeve surgery on 6/12 and have, at last weigh-in, lost 26 lbs.

I am having a few problems; however, according to Yolanda, the problems I am experiencing happen to about 1% of their patients and it will disappear in time, so it's nothing major!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
