Ooh sorry I don't know how much it costs here I've seen in other conversation that in Mexico it's from $4,000 - $7,000

Thanks!

Yeah seen those post and been looking into that and thought that be an option, up until someone told me horror stories about the surgeons out there :/

Will keep researching for sure!

I know a few people, from groups like this, that have had it done in Mexico and they had great experiences maybe look into a particular Dr and ask about him/her

I had everything done through Kaiser. I met their requirements for surgery (I think it's 50 bmi, I could be wrong) so my insurance covered my surgery (Kaiser insurance through work) I was very fortunate that my contribution was only $500 for the entire thing.

Dr. Miguel Burch at Cedars. He did my Sleeve and then my conversion to RNY. I needed to convert because of severe GERD that developed after my VSG. I'd be happy to answer any questions you have!

My surgeon was Dr. Feiz. His team and all the staff was just amazing. He is in BH but performs surgery in Valencia and Santa Monica. I have no clue about the costs, since he dealt directly with the insurance company. I had a $1k copay

      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.
