CanadaGirl 15 Posted June 13, 2013 Hi Saskatoon ladies , I kind of lost touch since last week but life is busy. I start my 21 day pre-op liquid diet tomorrow... Holy sheet that means surgery is in 22 days!!! I went shopping and bought absolutely everything I need for this as well as the items I will need post-op. I also bought items that are healthy and easy to cook for my family. I think that's going to be the tough part. Being a stay at home mom with a hungry little guy might be trying during this journey. The only thing that hinders me most days is my weight... Not being able to fit in my clothes right and finding pregnancy pants comfy is a huge problem... Yup my little guy is almost 19 months... Why am I still wearing them!!!!! I don't suffer from any sickness and I'm not out of breath going up a flight of stairs. But for how long?? I'm 31 years old, and stand 5'7 Highest weight 334 Current weight 322 Goal weight 160 I have a long way to go, and so much life to live. As you might already know, I'm getting Sleeved by Dr.Alvarez July 5th. So here is to getting my overly large ass in shape and being the best I can be!!!!!

Guest Smilee1234 Posted August 31, 2013 I am from a small rural community one hour from Saskatoon. I had my surgery in Mexico with dr. Pompa this past December. Hi there, I was wondering how your experience was with Dr Pompa? I am looking into this surgery and I'm a bit nervous. 1 DarbiMolly reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
newoutlookonlife 46 Posted September 7, 2013 Hi there' date=' I was wondering how your experience was with Dr Pompa? I am looking into this surgery and I'm a bit nervous. [/quote'] It was great! I had a really positive experience and still go to support group meetings regularity... Hardest part for me has been the mental mind games I play on my self regarding food. Everyday I have to make a conscious effort to eat right but its payed off.. Down 104lbs and feel great! For some reason it doesn't show me that others posted here so sorry for the late response. I would be glad to answer any other questions although it may be quicker if you PM me. 1 DarbiMolly reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
