rathval 2 Posted January 19, 2014 I'm from Kennesaw my surgery date is Feb 18, 2014 at Mexico Bariatrics with Dr. Alejandro Lopex. So excited I've already started a Protein diet and will start a pre op. diet on the 4th which is 2 Protein Drinks and a light meal. Unfortunately my BMI is to high 51.6 and you get charged an additional fee if it's not 49 or lower. I have around 20 lbs to lose. Ugh Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pachary 8 Posted January 27, 2014 Are there any guys in the Atlanta area that were sleeved? I am in Adairsville (exit 306 on I75). Dr Scott did my sleeve surgery at Floyd hospital on 1/22/2014. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DeenaF 38 Posted January 27, 2014 Dr. Scott did my surgery too! I'm in Rockmart, GA. I was sleeved on 7/17/2013. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pachary 8 Posted January 27, 2014 Dr. Scott did my surgery too! I'm in Rockmart, GA. I was sleeved on 7/17/2013. That is great to hear Deena! It's only been five days for me but I am feeling pretty good. Any suggestions getting through this month? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DeenaF 38 Posted January 27, 2014 Just take it slow and easy, try you best to get your Protein in, and your Water ( you will not get it all in at first). It's going to be sore getting up obviously you know that. sleeping in a recliner helped me. Walking also helped. Keep your eye on the prize! It's a great journey! I was 281.2 on surgery day, today I am 211! Good luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pachary 8 Posted January 27, 2014 That really is encouraging Deena, I get all the Protein Cala called for and 40-50 ounces of Water right now. I was really impressed with the experience so far. 1 DeenaF reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DeenaF 38 Posted January 27, 2014 Dr. Scott is nothing short if amazing! My 3rd favorite man behind my husband and my grandson! :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CurvyCakes 269 Posted January 30, 2014 Hello everyone I'm from Conyers, GA will be sleeved in March. I'm super excited but equally nervous. I've just begun trying different Protein drinks to have an idea of what I like and don't. My goodness this 6 months has just flown by. 1 lynnsleeving reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
