For the first time ever I seriously wonder what is going on here when someone posts that they have had a bad experience in Mexico and the topic is LOCKED BY MR. BRECHER.

It would be nice to know "WHY"?

Not only was the topic locked, but now its not even available to be seen. Deleted?

Quite a shame IMO, when someone comes here and posts their real life story, in what I thought was a very straightforward, respectable, and informative way, that the post is no longer available. What about today or tomorrow, next week/year when some prospective WLS candidate comes here looking for suggestions or opinions about surgery in Mexico? How can they get an unbiased opinion if only positive comments are allowed? I thought this site was to be about sharing knowledge.

Nevermind, I guess they can click on the ads for the best info...

Nothing was locked or deleted. It was a cross post and the topic was MERGED in to this one.

My mistake. I just saw red letters that said "locked".

It said "locked" when I last seen it too. Now, it doesn't show up when I click on the lapband section. I wanted to follow it....I think its useful info for ANYONE considering Mexico surgery, not just sleevers. But I'm tired and cranky I suppose....was a long midnight shift followed by a nice run this morning. Goodnight and Happy MayDay all.

      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.
