    Hi there, I see your from Austin, tx.. I'm from Temple, tx. I had my surgery on Oct 22, '14. It all went well. I traveled by myself, but was never alone in Mexico. My friends/family all thought I was crazy, so there wasn't much support on my end, boy are they shocked now. I started out at a low BMI, I weighed 200 and am 5'4. I've only lost 30 lbs but it looks like more because of my height. I previously had a lap band for 7 years that didn't do anything but PREVENT my dieting, this is soooo much better! I can eat "almost" anything I want, but found out they aren't lying about ice cream, it will put you in a coma state if you insist on eating it. Let me know if you have any questions, good luck!

    Hi..no,he didn't tell me anything about the size and I didn't know to ask. After losing a lot fast, I think I naturally plateaued but make sure you ask questions. I was silly and didn't ask much. He will be happy ro make sure you understand all..write the questions down . I haven't had any problems. I haven't been sick, haven't thrown up, not nautious...all perfect just can't eat as much. I was tired for first 2 weeks. Needed more rest. Eventually got better at getting liquids and protein down . don't eat and drink together..each separate. Small portions.
    Best wishes
    Terry

If you have a small benign lung nodule does this keep you from having the gastric sleeve surgery?
