bayareanan 24 Posted April 19, 2012 I was sleeved in Mexico in November. Since then I lost 11lbs on the liquid diet post surgery. Since then I am up 3 lbs and havent lost any weight. It is very frustrating. I know I can walk more as I only walk 2 miles 2days/week. I have worked with the nutritionist at the surgeons office and she feels I am eating fine and actually wanted me to add more food.< /p> I have tried eating more and then going back to a strict diet but that hasnt worked either. The surgeon wants to prescribe Metformin to see if that makes any difference, but from what I have read it doesnt really make a difference. I am considering getting a duodenam switch, which the sleeve is the first part of the surgery. Does anyone know a doc in MX that does this surgery? I have a call into my doc's office to see if he will convert, but want to see if anyone else does it too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bayareanan 24 Posted April 19, 2012 jn, I had Dr Ortiz at Obesity Control Center do the surgery. I do have a much smaller stomach. I do feel comfortable that the surgery was done correctly and those who had surgery the same day are doing well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Foxbins 625 Posted April 19, 2012 Dr. Ungson does the DS in Mexico and in my opinion is the only surgeon to consider. Check on the DS board at Obesity Help. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
