January 2013 Sleevers?



Recommended Posts

Hi All,

I am self pay and have surgery scheduled January 17 with Dr Ortiz in Mexico.

Not sure if I am going get the Sleeve or Plication. Any thoughts or advice would be helpful. Do any of you know how long recovery is for Sleeve surgery.

Which Dr. Ortiz are you using? I am also getting mine done on Jan. 17 in MX with Dr. Jesus Elias Ortiz. I think the other doctor Ortiz is Ariel Ortiz.

I am going to Dr Ariel Ortiz at the Obesity Control Center in TJ

I'm scheduled there for Jan 21 for the sleeve. Did you get two different price quotes for the Plication and the sleeve?

January 2, first surgery of the day. I am grateful for this forum. I am not telling many people and appreciate the support here.

Isn't it funny how we don't want people to know. I am careful about telling friends and family that I know struggle with weight and who will be supportive. I am worried that I will fail at this too and just get larger and larger.

Happy surgery to FinallyMyTurn and JOJO57. Keep us posted on how you are doing.

I am about 70 miles south of Dallas and scheduled for surgery Jan. 22 in Dallas with Dr. Nick Nicholson. Stocking up on essentials. Playing the out-with-old-in-with-new game. Cleaned out the fridge, freezer and pantry yesterday and I am working on the closets tomorrow! This is the first New Year in a long time that I feel confident that will actually maintain my resolution the entire year! Super excited!!

I, too, don't want anymore public failures. And some of my work colleagues are super judgmental. I am doing this for me. 2013 is my year! I am turning 50 in August and cannot bear to be so unhealthy any longer. It is finally my turn. Period.
