Dr. Gonzales did my surgery. I’m sorry I don’t have a link, but you can google Oasis of Hope. The coordinators are VERY helpful!! When you google them they have a number you can call and an email for information. They are very prompt in responding, usually within the day 😁

Oasis of Hope is also a cancer hospital so don’t freak out when it comes up as a cancer treatment hospital 🤣 They do bariatric surgeries and cancer treatments. It is in Tijuana

I have been really encouraged by your postings! I'm a little scared, but I know this will be excellent in the long run. I really don't have any concerns about the OCC. I start my strict pre-op diet next week!

@HappyHikerGal How was your experience at Oasis of Hope? I’m scheduled for revision surgery with Dr. Gonzalez on 3/27 and just looking for feedback on the facility, staff and overall experience. Which procedure did you have done? Thanks!

      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.
