Well, I did it !! Went to Mexico to have my surgery. I no problems what so ever, luckily everything went smooth. The Jerusalem Hospital was clean and the staff was very nice. The recovery house was a bit crowded but it was a good experience. They take care of you really well. I have zero pain and the only pain meds I have taken since leaving Mexico was some Tylenol for headache. I met some new friends there and wish them the best in their new lives! Yeaaaa

I started my liquids today. My surgery is on Oct. 14th. Not too bad so far but it's been only 5 hours!

Ok, day 3 of liquids done....omg I am hungry. Chicken broth has been tasting really good. 2 more days then surgery on Friday! Woohoo

It is soooo exciting LivingLarge :scared0:

Thanks Thomas

Mine is October 14th too!! I start my pre op diet Sunday, not looking forward to that but looking forward to the end result Yea !!!!!!

Good luck with it Missy. I will be doing the same as you in a couple weeks. Try to think of the end result and how worth it all will be. Keep smiling

Does anyone have a hotel in San Diego to recommend that is decent but not too expensive?

Thanks LoriP

Good Morning All ! I just wanted to say that I have gotten a date for my surgery...October 14th with Dr Ponce de Leon ! I am sooo excited and scared too. I have done alot of research and this is what my husband and I have decided. This just seems like crazy talk...going to Mexico to have surgery....but it is all ok. My daughter had hers done (not in Mexico) last November and I have been observing her all this time, asking questions,etc. and have decided that this is for me too! We will become "sleeve buddies". I am so glad she told me about this site and all of the wonderful people willing to share their experiences. I will keep you posted on my progress

Good luck with your journey Buckeye Girl

I will be anxious to read your posts. I am almost ready to schedule my sleeve with Dr. Almanza. I"m glad yours went so well
