Awesome Jules! Let us know your experience~ Congrats to you! Mom of 5.. I have started taking Caltrate D, vitamin C and a multivitamin.. I haven't begun to think about the liquid diet yet, but I've seen so much good info on here regarding what to do.. It's gonna be a serious test for sure! Yes I'm on FB.. My name is Michelle actually.. I tried to send u a private msg but it won't let me all the sudden! Try to send me one Sent from Chelle's iPhone

What!? Well come back! Haha! I lived in Oologah from 2004-2009.. Been here in Claremore for 4 years.. Yay! Hometown buddy!

Absolutely!

Mary, most definitely! I fly in on the 7th

I am 43, married, 2 girls 21 & 15..,Sleeve date 4-08-2013! SHOUT

I live in Northeast OK.. Claremore, I too have insurance that covers zero weight loss ( Community Care).. I chose the Mexico route as well after watching this group and researching for months.. I am happy with my decision as many people in my life aren't .. But they also have not felt the constant failure and desperation that we all have.. I backed out last year already due to money but now I'm back on.. APRIL 8th! GO OKIES

I am scheduled with Dr. Jesus Ortiz .. April 8th! I struggled with him being new as well.. lets face it, i only chose him for his looks.. kidding! 44 day countdown! people who post regarding the Dr, whether new or not helps us soon to be's~~so thank you kindly for that

Do u girls have same day surgery or next day? Mine is next day.. I'm getting anxious.. Liquid diet right around the corner ????

Best of luck and wishing you all a Happy new life! I'm glad I found you Okies! Farmgirl I will message you the details .,

Just have to jump in this thread hehe.. I live in Claremore woot! I've been on this group for awhile and just now came across this .. However, my insurance does not cover any weight loss period ;/. So I am scheduled for the sleeve in Mexico April 8th and could not be happier with my decision , I have put my research time in for sure, almost obsessively and have met some great girls that will be there at the same time.. 57 days! Cannot wait!

Oh wait.. You said Dr. Ariel Ortiz I believe. I'm using Dr.Elias Ortiz at MI hospital TJ..

Have you or are you planning to go to Mx? If not i wouldn't worry about it.. We only need a passcard to get in and out of TJ.. Nothing to do with a passport .. If someone doesn't have their passcard but does have their BC/DL that's something they need to confirm with their patient liaison or proper authorities before traveling I would think .. All I know is I'm sure it will work out for all of us.. So exciting!

I received my passport card yesterday! My husband had the mail.. So it took barely over 2weeks.. Birth certificate came in seperate envelope.. And yes, it looks just like a Drivers license lol

I wouldn't worry.. You have 3 weeks still .. But I can see the concern .. Best of luck to you both!

When is your surgery!?

Dee.. Did the website give you a possible date? Checkin here right? https://passportstatus.state.gov/opss/OPSS_Status_i.asp

I'm not sure you can be denied coming back to US if u are a US citizen .. This is all completely new to me though

Dee.. I did not expedite.. Just sent through normal..
