Good luck! Keep us posted!

Congrats! I wish that I was going then I have to wait until June. But I wish you the best of luck

I appreciate this post. It doesn't matter to me that you posted under a different name... What difference does it make? You shared the experience. I read it. The end. Lol I'm not going to overanalyze it and pick it all apart. I'm glad that I was warned about the green pee, or that someone may see me naked though. That's definitely a heads up

Are you satisfied with Midoctor so far?

Yeah, I know lol I was expecting a smaller version of that... Haha. I didn't realize our stomachs were so big.

Here's a stomach from a fellow sleever that was so kind enough to send to me

I wonder if they will let me keep my little stomach so I can carry it back home with me. It could be my little pet. Jk

It saying error on my iPhone when I try to view it...

Has anyone used this surgeon in Tijuana with Beliteweight? How was your experience? Would you recommend him?

I keep having reoccurring thoughts about having my sleeve in Mexico, then something going wrong- like my body rejecting my new stomach, bleeding to death, or my blood pressure bottoming out. is anyone else freaking out about stuff like this? I do already have anxiety issues, and having an elective surgery to remove the majority of my stomach has made my anxiety worse. I know that I want to do this, and need to do this. How did you calm your nerves?

Oh no! Well, you could always just get on the Internet and connect that way.

I'm sure you could get the app on it. It's like an iPhone kinda, just look for the app you want and download

Thank you! my child was nearly ten pounds and has a big head lol so that's probably why I had such a rough one!

Worse than a csection?? Oh no. I don't think that I could tolerate that pain. I could hardly walk after my csection :/

Good luck!!! Make sure you keep us updated! I'm sure that you will

Regaining the weight, hating the new lifestyle change and missing food. That would be torture!

Is anyone planning on having surgery in June?

This is a huge decision! I wouldn't let just any surgeon operate on me, and remove a portion of my stomach. Maybe I overanalyze it a bit, but I'm seriously stressed out over it. Of course, I have my Mother always asking me what am I gonna do if I have complications afterwards... What doctor would help me here in the US after I went to Mexico for my surgery. Just the stress of it all!

Savannah!!! I've always wanted to go there

I'm so confused right now... I'm having a hard time sleeping at night because all I think about is trying to figure out what I should do. I try talking to my family about it, but they are against me going to Mexico, so every bit of advice they offer to me isn't beneficial one bit. I feel completely alone. Almost to the point that I just want to forget about the surgery all together because it's causing me more stress and I haven't even had it yet! My Mother won't even look at surgeons websites with me so I can talk to her about my options. I know with my son, if he was thinking of doing this I would be researching left and right with him making sure he was content with his choice. She's been this way my entire life though. I don't think I can remember one time where she's told me that she was proud of me or that I was good at something. EVER. So not only do I feel like she doesn't support me in this, I feel like she's not a big supporter of anything that I do. I usually always do things on my own. Right now I'm torn about which surgeon I should go to. I posted a thread the other night and got a lot of good responses and ideas, but my head is still churning. I don't have much money and going to Dr. Aceves is going to be extremely hard on me financially. I mean, I can manage it, but it would be nice just to plop down the $4500 with Lopez or Garcia and be done with it. But it scares me. I ask myself why does Dr. Aceves charge so much more? True, he's in a full service hospital, but I was told he uses the best equipment, staples, everything. And that he fixes many sleeves from other surgeons due to the sleeve being too large or pouches in it. A part of me wants to just go with him because he has a great reputation and I'm sure I'd get the care I need. But I've also read lots of great things on MiHospital and the surgeons out of there. They haven't done it as long as Dr. Aceves though, and I'm not sure about the care I'd receive at Midoctor in a life or death situation. I'm just going back and forth...

I was booked with Dr. Lopez, but didnt have the money so I cancelled. My top 2 picks were Aceves and Alvarez, but thought I would never afford them. Come to find out Dr. Aceves has a payment plan, in house financing! $4,500 down and you pay the rest in payments. This was what I was looking for!! his reputation alone is impeccable.
