whattodo 3 Posted October 23, 2013 Hi. I am new. I had my sleeve in Puerto Vallarta Mexico on Oct 9th/13. My surgeon was Dr. Castenada. I am doing pretty well surgery was a breeze and not painful. The drains were the worst part. I am slowly starting puréed foods and soft foods and tolerating it well. I just started taking my pills whole instead of crushing, thankfully as they were nasty. I am happily down 19lbs! Well, just thought I would say hello! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It gives me hope I can actually have a manageable surgery once my time comes. Good luck on your journey. 2 whattodo and ms.garcia reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
