Guillermo Alvarez M.D. I have chosen Dr. Alvarez as my surgeon in Mexico for two reasons. The first obvious reason is that is alot cheaper than in the U.S. being approx $7,000. The second reason is that I have heard nothing but wonderful things about Dr. Alvarez. I spoke with him briefly and he seemed humble, compassionate, and patient. I can tell I have made the right decision and I can not wait to post on my blog my entire Mexico experience with Dr. Alvarez and his very wonderful staff.
I just wanted to
wish you all the
luck on your big
day. I will be
sending lots of
prayers for you my
OH friend. Get well
soon and hope you
become a big loser
soon lol.
Hugs, Legina
Hello everyone! I am now 6 days post op and I am doing well. I have a little knot under one of my stitches but I believe it is from wearing an underwire bra that I shouldn't have worn. The pain from my stitches is slowly going away although it still hurts to cough or sit straight up from a position of lying down. I am slowly losing weight but I know once I can eat and exercise I will lose faster.
This band is amazing. It feels so wonderful to be hungry and to go get a cup of soup and by the time you are half way done you are so full you are almost sick. I still have head hunger though and I am planning out my menu of mushy foods for post op week 3. I can't wait to be able to eat my half a cup of mashed potatoes. HMMM!
Until next time...
