Anyone going to Dr. Fernando Garcia between May 6 and May 11?



Recommended Posts

There is also another group on fb that is for mexico sleevers. Alot of the people on there are going to Dr. Garcia or have already been there. I am already part of this group. Would you all be interested in just being added to that group. I think that would be great to have you all added to that group. It is secret, but I could ask the lady to add everyone. Loads of info and experiences on there specifically to Dr. Garcia and both hospitals.

I would be keen for our own little group for people having surgery within a few days... Then we can specifically ask how their progress is going and make sure we are all healing well?

I would prefer you create a group outside of the 2013 Mexico Sleevers. Thanks!

will you be staying at the Marriott like the rest of us? I would imagine that you will be released to the hotel on the same night I fly in (the 9th).

 

It might be good if we all PM each other our first/last names and phone numbers so we can check on each other for support. I am guessing if I tell the Marriott "I am looking for 1hotmomma" they will think I have lost my mind. LOL

I am not doing the spider. Not because of cost, but primarily because from my lapband surgery, you cannot even see the incisions that were there after a year. It is just not important to me, but totally understand everyone else wanting to do it.

I saved this article from yesterday as I have had this happen. 30 minutes in TJ without realizing I had not turned off my data package. $200 later.

I could have bought a great pair of shoes in 30 minutes. :unsure:

I wanna pipe in here and say that you guys will not be disappointed with dr. Garcia.

Don't forget to ask for pics!! I got pics of my actual sleeve, the stapling while it was happening, and the portion they took out.

I'd add it but I'm afraid some might not want to see.

Eek. Sorry to anyone that saw the "rough draft". It was a mess.

      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.

      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.
