Hi...I am really excited and of course anxious about getting the sleeve however I am completely committed.  Heck I have already quit smoking for 6 days which is a miracle in and of itself.  Nothing is going to stop me for making this happen.

Couple questions hopefully someone out there can give me an opinion on...

Did anyone use Dr. Mariano Covarrubias at A Lighter Me?  Any thoughts?

Is anyone going to be there between June 2nd and June 7th?  Love to meet you!

What did you do for follow up if you had surgery in Mexico?  Does anyone attend support groups etc?

 

Thanks in advance for sharing...so need your expertise...

I went thru a lighter me once with no problem, but a different surgeon. 

My pcp agreed to follow me after my procedure for labs, etc. not all PCP's will do that so you need to make sure yours is on board before you go.will

I was recently approved for financing with Citerra and decided to go with Mexicali Bariatric however the financial paperwork was submitted to Mexico Bariatric instead. I can't call and see about fixing it until Monday and told my husband I would look into this center in the mean time, however I am not finding any reviews from 2016. Anybody use them?

I don't know about Mexico Bariatrisc but I used Mexicalli Bariatrics and recommend them highly.

It's so exciting, isn't it! Do you have a date? Which surgery are you having? I had the DS 14 years ago and have been very happy with it. Best wishes!!

Topic: RE: http://www.obesityhelp.com/shared/images/smiley/msn/ HAS ANY BODY BEEN OFFENDED HERE ON OBESITYHELP

I saw your post and her response. I did comment on her response to yours. She is a bit tactless with her response and ASSUMED to know the truth. 

I have read her posts all over these forums and she never has anything positive to say to anyone. Old lady, bitter, and bored.

Topic: RE: Revision from sleeve to RNY

Hi there,

I also have a sleeve a few years back and it really wasn't that great for me. Are you booked for your RNY yet?

Topic: RE: My experience with Dr. Lopez and VIDA hospital

I went thru Ready4achange for my gastric banding in 2004 and was more than satisfied with Judy and that is why I am going thru her again and as of now looks like surgery will be with Dr Lopez at VIDA. I trust her completely and thankful for your surgery update!

I had surgery with Dr. Garcia back in October 2014.  You are in good hands.  Good luck to you.
