Thank you, and I understand what you have told me.

Being deficient in vitamin D can cause this also, or so I was told by my PCP.

You are stunning! FANTASTIC job!!!

Hmmm....I wonder if the blind have these issues?

Thank you all for information.

I suppose this could apply to any of the Doctors in Mexico, but do they give you a plan to follow before leaving Mexico, And do they give guidelines for when you may resume certain activities in writing?

Dr. Kelly has received all my paperwork. Now I'm waiting on him/office to call and go over info with me. How long does this take usually?

Ok heatherinoregon, thanks!

Oh yeah, it also has April 2011 header is WL SC.

Hey...I just filled out the questionare Omar faxed to me and it has Alfonzo Garcia's name as MD, and under Medical Director is Florence Health System, can someone help me out here? I want Dr Kelly, at the hospital he's affiliated with...sigh....don't understand...is this an "ambush"?

Has anyone used or dealt with Weight Loss Angels? They are advertising $4499.00 all inclusive, minus flight, sleeve surgeries on OH, and they claim to be most experienced... I didn't see any Doctors names, or places and I was curious...

Thanks Jennifer!

I've contacted Omar today, and I am pleased with how quickly he responded to my emails, and extremely thankful for the info received from this topic! I feel that a missing link was found and I'm like a kid opening presents! Thanks once again!!!

I contacted them today and I'm already excited! I haven't made an appointment or filled out information Omar faxed, but I'm ridiculously overjoyed by just doing this step....OMG if I'm this way with simple email I can't begin to imagine how I'll be when its here....never been like this b4 am I nuts?

I think I've found my surgeon, and maybe it'll happen sooner then January 2013! I really am thankful for each reply posted! I'm ecstatic!

Thanks! I was just looking at some info on Dr. Kelly and I read he was born in Michigan USA, did some kind of transplant schooling at Borgess hospital in Michigan....is this the same surgeon as in the Dr. Ramos Kelly in TJ Mexico? If so YES!!!!! If not I'll look again on this little phone...

Cissiesue you went with Dr. Kelly in TJ Mexico, can you tell me if he works out of same hospital as Dr. Garcia? If I got info wrong please feel free to correct me...thanks

Cissiesue, and made2beme, thanks for the info on Drs and passports. Cissiesue did your cousin have to show her ID at border going home?

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! This is informatin I can use to make contact and get info from them! And hearing about wonderful experiences, as well as not so wonderful, helps me get a bigger picture! How or where would I get a passport? I've never had one before.

Wow....okay Thanks for all advice and gosh I wish this hadn't started a "my daddy's bigger than your daddy" thing. Did anyone use weight loss angels? Do they only have Dr. Almanza as their doctor? Someone mentioned Dr. Garcia, could you give more information on your experience time and cost? Thank you!

IMHO all genders want to feel loved, beautiful, and special, regardless off their weight, height, religion, etc... But for some reason there is always that one particular person (or more) whom feels it's their responsibility to announce to others any and every fault you may have, and it hurts!!! I'm so humiliated every time this person says "sing, cuz we know it ain't over till the fat lady sings," refering to me! I've told him this is mean and hurtful and that I don't address the many flaws I feel he has...btw he is a co-worker/"friend"! I know he's only joking, but I am obese, (hate that truth), and it makes me extremely self conscious and I want to hide, if not for the need to earn money here I'd never leave my abode ever!! I'm overly sensitive, and yes I'm wearing my heart on my sleeve! Hopefully within the next several months I'll being wearing a sleeve internally instead, and I'll grow that "THICK" skin he says I need!! I know that its ridiculous for a woman in her late 40's to allow this to affect me, but the fact is that it does and that's That! I posted here because I plan on having surgery in Mexico if all works out.

It's been another one of those days where I'm frustrated and sooooo damned angry I could spit fire!!!!!! I am so stupid at times and its pathetic! Maybe its just this horrible heat wave we're experiencing, idk! Same crap just a different day! If I could fall asleep and not wake up ....never mind I'm letting things (people) get to me!

I just read some of their testimonials, and its Dr. Almanza.....that answers some questions lol

I was curious as to how all the sleevers were handling this heat wave? Is the humidity and heat causing you any issues differently than before being sleeved?

I think you have a good understanding of how it is here as it sounds very similar to your job! Thank you for your ideals!!! Yes, there is one guy in my department that'll say something at times, but most times he and the others don't say anything...but I'm so glad someone else on the outside gets it, most don't understand! I've been here 15 plus years, and I've worked in other factories and places before, I must admit this is like a whole different world in here, and I've never seen anything like it. I needed the boost each and everyone of you gave me and it is appreciated more than I can tell you!
