BigHarleyGuy1 149 Posted July 29, 2015 What does your packing list look like. I am a minimalist. I was just going to bring clothes. *Flying on an airplane and do not want to be weighed down with nonsense. That said, I am curious if I need to bring anything for my own comfort or recovery.

sunshine72 5 Posted July 29, 2015 I'm going to bring something to make broth with incase I don't like theirs, I'm going to bring my own pillow (my friend said the pillows are terrible) going to bring my iPad to watch movies on. Other than that I think I'll travel minimal too. My friend said to take comfy pants that aren't right around your tummy at all. When are you arriving Harleyguy? Who's your surgeon? Sunshine ????

Hi sunshine72, nice to meet you, I'm Dr A. I don't have you booked and I think we haven't skype or Facetime either. Would you like to have a free consult with me? She's seeing Dr Almanza ...

sunshine72 5 Posted July 30, 2015 What exactly is with the "yikes" comment? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ASUgrad 61 Posted July 30, 2015 What exactly is with the "yikes" comment? Per the other user on page one.. check out this link on Dr. Almanza. You really should reconsider. Also, BariatricPal pulled him as a recommended doctor and is no longer affiliated with him. Really not a smart move. http://www.10news.com/news/team-10-investigates-agency-responsible-for-booking-bariatric-surgery-that-is-injuring-patients Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Team 10: Weight loss surgery gone bad http://www.10news.com/news/team-10-dozens-injured-during-weight-loss-surgery-in-Mexico If you watch these videos and don't think twice about going to Almanza-God be with you. I'm sure the story is going to get worse for this guy. Edited July 30, 2015 by watchoutinmexico Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
