I went to Tijuana Mexico with Dr. Garcia and it was $5000 for everything including hotel. I believe he is having a special for $4700. It was a great experience and have had 2 friends go to him since I went. We are doing great.

Hi,

I have a little experience, and I just wanted to say something. I understand about looking for a good price if you are self-pay. I was a self pay myself, but I also want you to consider what kind of care you are getting and the rate of infection that their facility has, and if there are any negetive things being said about them. I did research for 6 months before I picked Dr. Aceves. I wanted the very best there is when I was going to have sleeve surgery. I wanted the surgery done in a top of the line Hospital--NOT A CLINIC, I wanted my recovery to be in a hospital, not a hotel room or recovery house where there are NO medical people. So when you are looking for a doctor please ask all kinds of questions and do a lot of research and read a LOT of posts.

I wish you great success.

Suzanne

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
