Recommended Posts

I just got my date this afternoon, July 17th with Dr garcia! Im super excited!! Im also a little freaked out because I have to go by myself. Hubby is staying home with the kids and all of the close people in my life are working or I have yet to tell them.. im being really picky on who I tell because people are so opinionated and don't take into consideration peoples feelings anymore, or we get the why cant you just diet and excersize... I did.. about 100 times and obviously its not working lol My friend had her sleeve done in January and she is so pleased.. now its my turn. I cant wait to buy a pair of jeans that is a single digit size! Any July buddies??

So u get to stay at a hospital? I like that idea better than a recovery house and being brought back and forth in a van for pain meds.. Lol how much are you paying for your sleeve? I know dr. Almanza is 4500.00

yes, well the first night pre- op is at hotel, then 2 nights at Hospital MI, thats the name of the hospital, then 2 more nights at hotel. I cant imagine going back and forth in a van and staying at a house.. im sure its going to be fine for you but I feel more comfy at hotel/ hospital. Dr Garcia is $5000 for everything but airfare to SanDeiago. I think its worth the extra $500 for comfort and stability. But who am I to talk, I haven't gone yet :) Ask me in a month .. :)

The spider is when they go in and make one incision to do the surgery to other way to to make about four incisions

I have not heard about the spider method either. I will be going by myself too. I did ask a friend yesterday and she was receptive to the idea but has to clear the time at work.. we will find out tomorrow. Crossing my fingers!!

      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.
