If you were sleeved in Mexico add me I can help you!I



Recommended Posts

I am shocked at the lack of support there is for people who have been sleeved in Mexico. I helped a lady from Montana who was literally dying get on track and healthy. I m willing to help any way I can! You need to know how to eat properly. Add me and ask me any thing and if I don't know the. answer I will find it. I am almost 6 months post surgery and have lost 102lbs

I am so glad that you just posted that because I was thinking the same thing. I talked with the nutritionist and she said I should be eating sugar free pudding sugar-free Jell-O sugar-free yogurt and sugar-free drinks. I'm the type of person that would rather juice my own juice make a smoothie in my vita mix it with some Protein Powder and make some homemade Soups. I get the worst heartburn when I drink those prepackaged shakes.

I am three weeks out tomorrow what should my daily diet look like

Jenn are you drinking Protein drinks? Find Premier Protein they are really good. You should also be eating soft foods like scrambled eggs and cottage cheese. You are getting heartburn because you aren't eating right. 1oz is all you should be doing 5-6 x per day and drink your Protein Drink in between. No veggies, fruits or meat right now. Make sure you sip and not gulp. No straws! Your goal is 65gms of Protein daily so try to do 5-10 each meal then your drink is 15gms. Tiny bites. I hope this helps.

I was sleeved in Mexico in July. I've lost 35 lbs and my bmi has gone from obese to overweight to normal with that weight loss. I'm beyond excited!!

I am at a 2 week long stall so that is frustrating tho.

I was checking into it. I had a lap band since 2/2008 and just had it removed 7/27/2015. I had severe reflux and throw up most of the time developed aspiration pneumonia, the last 6 months. It is so nice to be able to eat again. But I am gaining wt. fast.

Insurance will only cover 1 Wt loss surgery in a lift time. I was looking at Mexico for the sleeve. What worries me is most Docs who don't do the surgery will not take you as a pt. And if you have problems later you would be in a mess. How about you? do you have a Dr. at home??? Lanie

      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. 🤞
