Dr. Lopez, MI Hospital, June, Advice!



Recommended Posts

I am scheduled in June with Dr. Lopez at MI Doctors Hospital. I am very anxious and was hoping that you all could tell me what I need to know. I am interested in other people's experiences, and especially those who have used Dr. Lopez and A Lighter Me. I also would like to know what I need to bring with me. Anything that I need to know but may not even be aware that I need to know would be appreciated. Thanks!

Dr. Lopez, ALighterMe, Dr. Ortiz, Abraham, Eduardo, Rhonda and Janice are all WONDERFUL! Nothing but rave rave reviews here. I was sleeved in Nov. Take plenty of PJ pants with pockets for your drain, I suggest a bandeau bra, or a couple, I took gas X steips and a hot water bottle but didn't need either. All of the broth and popsicles you could possibly need are free. The Jello is delicious at the Marriott, as is the apple juice at the hospital after the surgery. WALK as soon as you can. PM me if you want my full story. All of you will do great!!

My loss is good so far, it has slowed since the 6-7 month mark, but I'm still dropping. Slow but steady wins the race :)

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
