So today was my first day setting up a date and possible flights to get surgery in mexico! I WAS excited.. My mom was all supportive, but maybe we are just uneducated about this sort of thing.. OR maybe my nurse is paranoid? HELP

 

I started to cry when i was talking to her, because all i want is to be skinny and wear what i want, when i want and of course go swimming!

 

She said WE CAN DO IT TOGETHER!

mmmm yaaa i have a lot of people i could do it with, its the fact that its all going to come back and i have no faith anymore..

Weight watchers, jenny craig, curves, regualr gym, home gym, dog, energy pills, weight loss pills, protein shakes, protein bars, smaller portions, more fruit, bought bikes, lean cuisines... the list goes on... I have tried every last one of these...

 

It doesnt help that the bf wont try to eat healthier... he doesnt neeeed to.. lame

 

Hey!

So I just talked to my nurse at work and she thinks im absolutely insane for even thinking about going to mexico... She asked if I ever thought about getting aids, hepatitis, not being able to get back to canada if they messed up and i became terribly ill..

She asked if the doctor was accredited and if i ever wondered why it was so much cheaper to do it there rather than canada..

 

I dont know, it seems like everyone I tell has a way to tell me its a horrible idea..

Help meee lol

I have a friend at work that went to Mexico, I believe Dr. Ortiz. She did fine, I dont feel like she got all of the nutrition classes and she has trouble in our area finding places to give her fills. (other Doctors are funny about giving you a fill if you did not use them) but as far as the surgery was concerned she was very happy and she said the facility was very clean and that they were very organized. They even arranged pick-up at airport to the motel, and motel to the hospital and back to the airport for her. Best of luck but enroll in a local bariatric nutrition class and make sure you have somewhere local for fills.
