Ok, I'm back home....
posted on 3/23/10 2:30 pm
and everything went well.  Like everybody else has mentioned everybody at Jerusalem clinic were wonderful.  They had a full house last Friday.  It was 8 of us that day getting surgery.  I was like the 5th one to get sleeved.  I am so excited.  Just worried that I might over eat.  I've been drinking a lot, I feel full all day. 

I would recommend Jerusalem clinic to anyone that wants to have their surgery and low cost.  Since we had a full house, If it wasn't for my daughter that was with me, I think I would have struggled a little bit.  Right when I got out of surgery my daughter was with me, handing me everything I needed and helping me with everything.  I think it's better to bring someone with you if you can. That night she was offered to go the recovery house or stay in a sofa at the clinic.  She chose to stay at the clinic.  I am very thankful I hardly had any gas, a little bit sore on my stomach.  Saturday I went to the Recovery house, and that was a lot better, less noisy.  Claudia (the nurse attendant at this house, they have 2 houses right across each other) was waiting with lunch for our companions.  I rested a lot.  My daughter became friends with everybody there and she had fun.  The one thing I was a little bit disappointed was that I never saw Dr. Almanza after I left the Clinic.  On the second day we all went to get our x rays after drinking our yummy blue drink .    Everybody came out fine.  They gave us a copy of our x rays.  I went to the recovery house and had some chicken broth.  They wouldn't let us drink anything besides water, gatorade or popsicles until this test.  I went to bed and rested the rest of the afternoon. My daugter went shopping with the others.

The next day I felt a lot better and went shopping.  Make sure you negotiate prices at the shops, they start at like - for a poncho and we got it down to .  DON"T GO with the first price. 

Ok now I'm on another goal, lose the weight and keep it off.  I feel that I can hold more onces than some people can.  This is kind of worring me.    Well see.  I'm sorry but I'm not too good at writing and detail, so if you have any questions, please email me.  Oh by the way the scale at the clinic was broken so I couldn't weigh myself before or after. I don't have a working scale at home, so that's on my list of things to do... BUY A SCALE... any suggestions on what kind?
