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=':)' />

Hey.. I actually strayed from my cheese routine, today and had a cup of what I call "bran chips" they're bran flakes, but I eat them like chips and the kids get fooled too and we're all happy :D

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

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