Juarez Mexico surgery info?



Recommended Posts

Hello beautful people! I recently decided I need to so something about my weight especially since my friend had the Sleeve done. I have been looking around because my insurance will not cover this surgery. Im 26 years old and barely making it with what I'm getting paid right now. When looking for a facility that doesn't charge and arm and a leg I came across BeLite weight website and I spoke with SKY and they suggested surgery on Juarez MX with 1,500 down and payments after $6000 is still alot of money for me but it's the only way I can get this done! can anybody tell me or answer if this is a legit website or are they trying to take my body parts lol no really tho ? And has anybody done their sleeve surgery in Juarez and what doctor? How much R monthly payments?

Thank you lovely people!

Vee

I had a team of 5 Dr's, i am terrible with names, that accompanied with anxiety i cant remember their names. I am following up with my primary physician today. It is best that you follow up with a physician, they can track your progress and make sure your blood levels are safe and your healing properly. If you obtain financing and are going to have surgery, i can share my experience with you so you will know exactly what to expect.

      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.
