I am to be either banded or by-passed June 20! Will find out tomorrow which one! :-) Good luck to all of you!

I forgot to add this to the last comment ... I have been on my pre-op diet for almost 3 wks (wed. will be 3) and I have lost 22 lbs!! WOOOOHOOOO I am so excited!! I already feel so much better! :-)

I personally would feel apprehensive about going to Mexico for a surgery especially one that could be this serious ya know? Do you all that have went to Mexico attend support groups here now that it's all said and done? That is one thing that I am really looking forward to is the support groups and having a "family" to help back me and help me through any tough spots! I am also considering having the by-pass not for sure yet. I am to decide tomorrow with my surgeon hmmm Nothing like waiting till the last minute huh? LOL

It really depends on your weight/BMI on how quick they will get you in! With me it will about 6 wks because I am having to do the whole 4 wks of pre-op diet. My surgery is set for June 20
