My WLS journey with Alighterme/Dr.Lopez/Mexico the Real Deal



Recommended Posts

OK I am the one that she was talking OUT of the surgery.. Her point is RESEARCH your doctor, doesn't matter if in the united states or egypt.. ALSO this is a forum to share experiences to help other make an informed decision. It doesn't matter this is our experience it was good and for that i am blessed. WE did see people that didnt have a good experience but not sure they would have if were surgery anywhere. SO people stop playing Natzi wls police.. It just shows.. opinions are like buttholes we have have them and some stink.. and i am down 32 poundsssssssssssssss whooot whoot

ohh and i have read tons of horror stories about Dr A and he is an excellent surgeon and stays booked. PLUS what do u care.. u you dont want to read the stuff.. dont read it. and yes we are on 2-3 forums and facebook.. keep up the good work Tulip. and honey if they do pay you u need to share.. i was in that hospital room and hotel with u the whole time..LOL

Oh and I think for my breakfast afterwards I will have either Greek yogurt with some frozen blueberries and a packet of stevia or a Protein shake...

But I will dream of Cookies <img src='http://www.bariatricpal.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' />

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
