  1. When I was there a month ago there was a girl who had a tummy tuck done by OCC about 9 months ago, and while I was there (April 3) she had her breast and arms done. She said she was very very happy with her results! I wish more people would post on here after.
  2. Hi Lori, I am 4 weeks post op now and still taking very very small sips and bites. I still drink a lot of protein drinks, and eat a lot of sugar free pop sickles! Those seem to be my favorite as I'm having a hard time not being able to eat and drink at the same time. So usually after I eat I have a pop sickle. I'm also loving my oatmeal as I'm getting tired of mashed potatoes, beans and soup! I found a few great watermelons and those also seem to be my favorite right now. I'm down 32lbs now and feeling GREAT!
  3. Just an update. The doctor called me back this evening and said I would be fine. However, he advised me not to take any more Oxycoden but to take Tylenol instead. Also, he suggested Milk of Magnesia!
  4. Hi, I had my surgery 7 days ago and I'm doing overall pretty good. However, I was have some pain in my stomach and decided to take Oxycoden that I had at home for a few days. Now I'm constipated and don't know what to do. I did take 1 tsp of Miralax this afternoon but not sure if that is going to work. My husband is out of town, and of course when I told him he freaked out that I took this pain medication and miralax without talking to the doctors. I called the doctors and left a message for them to call me back. But now I'm freaking out?!?!? Anyone know if Oxycoden or Miralax are okay to take? I'm not going to take anymore but just hoping I didn't cause any damage. The good news is I'm down 23 lbs total (13 pre-op, and 10 post). Overall, I'm doing great. Not hungry at all, in fact it is hard for me to get all my protein in. Any advice/feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Suz
  5. I am trying to decide between the Sleeve or the Plication surgery. I am 5'5 and 250lbs. They suggest the sleeve but I'm thinking the plication. Also, I am thinking of bring my friend there with me, however, she is a little worried about traveling there and wants to know where she would stay and how safe it would be. Any thoughts on this would be great.
