barrbdoll 287 Posted April 19, 2012 Hi Everyone... Just wanted to say that my surgery went great on Monday. I am so impressed with Dr. Ortiz and Obesity Control Center in Tijuana. I had no nausea, no gas and very little discomfort. Yesterday I relaxed by the pool and got a little sun. Today I went shopping with my mother for about 3 hours and all went well. I have been trying to get as much Fluid as I can but honestly, its hard to get anymore than about 4-5oz's down at a time. So, I am just sipping, sipping, SIPPING!!!! LOL It's funny though cause every time I sip it feels like my stomach is talking back to me with the gurgling noises. So, I just say "your welcome" LOL Anyway.... Thank you for your prayers!! I came through the surgery just as I thought I would....The best advice that I can give to anyone having this surgery is to stay positive and choose a surgeon that you can trust not just the one that gives you the cheapest price!! Dr. Ortiz and the entire staff at Obesity Control Center ROCK!!!! They have changed my life and I will be forever grateful!!! 6 raven8888, shelleyrn22, mommy794 and 3 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
