    Re: Sicily!

    My nutritionist asked me what I wanted to do after I reached my goal weight. I said I wanted to go to Italy.

    Re: Hello all, frustrating journey so far

    I highly recommend Dr. Galileo Villarreal (Drgalileo.com) in Nuevo Laredo. My cost was under $4900 with hiatal hernia repair add on. My insurance was jerking Me around, too.

    Re: If you already got the sleeve (in Mexico)

    I went to Nuevo Laredo to Dr. Galileo Villarreal. Also had hernia repair. $4900 maybe, plus flights. That included 2 nights in hotel and 2 nights in hospital. Yes, I’d do it again!

    Hungry!

    One reason I chose VSG was because of removing most of the hunger hormone. I’m so disappointed to find I’m frequently hungry. Why?

    Re: Which best doctor in Mexico?

    Laredo, TX. WLA makes sure you’re picked up and delivered back. All you have to do is get the plane tickets and get on the plane. Be sure you have your passport.

    Re: Survey of solid food schedule

    1 week clear liquids, 1 week full liquids, then puréed . Haven’t looked beyond that since this is just day 3 postop.

    Re: Just my luck

    I’m so sorry about your knee! I like the arm exercise suggestion. You might also try moderate leg lifts with your good leg. Hang in there!

    Re: Hello from scotland

    I’m so sorry you’re not feeling well. I haven’t had mine yet, but I’ve had surgery in the past and remember how disappointed I was that I wasn’t myself at 4 weeks. Hang in there.
