  1. Good Morning Rochelle
    I have been reading a lot of comments one lady had a bad experience on the 20th of June. I think I will be bringing my own pain meds I would hate to be in Mexico with out any extra meds. I have read that they only give you a minimal amount there and nothing for nausea. I'd rather be safe then sorry.
    what day are you going to be leaving and what time will you be there. I'm leaving on the 21st and be there @ 12:30pm
  2. Yeh so happy to no that there is some one else that will be going the same time as me. How are you feeling I'm so happy and scared at the same time I have thought of backing out a few times. I no that would be the most dumbest thing I would ever choose to do. It feels so close but so far away. Well stay in touch please God Bless and take care.

    Hi RoDean. Thank you so much for the welcome! I will be getting my sleeve on either July 11, or July 25 from Dr Almanza in Mexico. My father has been in the hospital, so I am waiting for him to stabilize before I solidify my date. I am loving this forum already. So much info & so helpful. I am getting more excited with all this help from people going through the same thing. I am not real good at computer stuff-- so I'm still trying to figure this all out--- including how to get a picture the right side up & not sideways! Ha! I'm looki g forward to getting to know you all :0)

    Hi RoDean, I am thankful for the warm welcome to July 2013 Sleevers Group, I need the support, I am on my Pre Op diet now which is very easy, considering its not all liquid until day before surgery, but I am having carb withdrawals. I left a message for my nurse in regards to any healthy carbs, if there is such a thing! I haven't received my diet suggestions and want until next week, so I can have all lean meats and vegetables and fruits, but my concern is how about yogurts and cheese, seems like everything has carbs...lol, and congrats for your approval and upcoming surgery as well, Best Wishes.

    I also got the message about the facebook page, but never went to check it out. I had my surgery on May 23rd with Dr. Almanza and he did a great job. I have no complaints! I am very happy with my decision and wouldn't do anything differently if I were doing it over. Good luck! PS - I am 1 month post-op today and have lost 34 pounds and I feel great!

Second Surgery and again...failure

by RoDean on 11-03-2016 at 10:05 AM
So, I went to have my re-sleeve in March of this year and I feel as though I have been a victim of the worlds biggest fraud. I am almost 99% positive that I was cut open on the table and absolutely nothing was done to my stomach. I woke up and had the easiest recovery in the world, with the exception of felling as though I had, had a surgery and been on anesthesia. I began "sipping fluids" as soon as Dr. Almanzas team would let me and went through cup after cup of apple juice and broth,

Weight lost

by RoDean on 03-28-2016 at 01:36 PM
So, I am 2 weeks out from my surgery and 11 lbs down. On my 5 day clear liquid pre-op diet which I followed to a "T" I lost a whopping 1 ounce. I was so mad. I knew something was broken with my sleeve and that proved it. I am so glad I had the revision and that the weight is coming off again. I am now 10 lbs away from 100 total lbs lost. I told my husband that this morning and then told him he better start saving his money, because my goal was always once 100 lbs were off, I got
