Oh that is so good to know that they have your paperwork! So, you should hear something by Monday but no later than Tuesday. I have never tried unjury shakes, but where can you find them? I heard that the surgery causes the taste buds to change! Long as it doesn't take away my taste for ice cream then I will be happy! Yes, I've told several people about the surgery! They think that I am crazy but hey, don't be shocked when they see my sexiness is defined!-lol. My parents are aware, but not all that supportive. So it's a hit and missed with them

Aww thanks! We can be each other inspiration! My weight has been the cause of everything! LITTERALLY!! Everything! From the colonoscopy, endoscopy, knee pain, heel spurs, plantar fasciitis, abnormal menstrual, can't get extended life insurance because of my weight, signs of lupus, etc. I can go on and on. For the past two years I have met my deductible and some! That's why I said enough is enough and I have to remain focus! My date is December 8, 2014 that I arrive in Mexico with surgery on December 9th. That is true you know when it's time and Don't let nothing stop you for making the decision for you! Just make sure that when you start, please please start yourself on your Protein shakes to get your body used to it along with carving your appetite. Once you are sleeved you will already be used to the shakes and your body will be ready to accept the smaller amounts of the shakes. What day are you thinking for your surgery? Please keep me updated!

No Problem. You pick the day that works for you. If you ever need to change the day then you let them know and it goes from there. In all cases I am pretty sure there is like a 500.00 deposit to hold that day once you have the process. For example: I picked Dec. 9th back in August and I finally put my for that day in September. I was already on the list, but I made it official!

Congratulations on the beginning of your new journey! I was in the same boat far as tired of tying everything! Weight watchers itself to me was a JOKE at the end! Surgery was my last option and after experiencing sooooooooo many health issues since the beginning of 2013, I knew it was ready. My husband and I have pretty good insurance and when they DENIED me I knew that if I gave up now I would lose hope forever. So, I took a deep breath and completed all forms online to go to Mexico and I never looked back since. I am ready for a change and I am ready for a new me! I am ready to give my husband children and live a happy healthy life. Of course I will be nervous on that day, but with my hope and faith, I think I will be okay-lol So I say to you the same that just continue to pray and believe that you are making the right decision for your health and for your life.

Morning! No Maam! You only go to Mexico ONCE. There are some things that you need to do here such as a low-no carb diet followed by liquids a day or two BEFORE your surgery. Once you get to Mexico they will do all your pre-op the day before your surgery including x-rays, tests, etc. Before you return home the Doctor will send you with EVERYTHING you will need in order to receive any follow-up care. Your stay will be for 5 nights 6 days in Mexico

I have tried just about all flavors. I do both the powder and the liquid. I have been told NOT to drink the orange cream because it's nasty and that was from the staff. When drinking the powder I use 1 scoop of powder, add 1 spoon of greek yogurt, 1 spoon of powder Peanut Butter, 4 pieces of fruit, ice, sprinkle some ginger on it (for digestive), and 1 cup of almond milk. Blend and it's awesome. If you happen to do 2 scoops of Protein then I double the milk. I even take the GNC mega Vitamins for women in the powder form and I put a scoop of that in there too. I have a video that I created which goes step by step on how I do everything. The liquid I like to drink cold or almost in a slushy form! I drink those when I am on the go. They taste waaayyyy better than the whey powders and better than the Atkins drinks to me. I don't add (too) sugary fruits such as peaches and pineapples, etc. I use anything with a berry at the end because it gives it a hint of sweetness (which it really doesn't need). I also may add banana when I need that potassium. My favorite powder from the collection is Cinnamon Bun and Pina Colada. My favorite from the liquid is strawberry, chocolate and then Vanilla! Hopes this helps

Hello!!! I hope that all is well! Okay great! We are neighbors When is your surgery? Best of luck to you on your journey.

Okay! Great!! I am looking forward to it and meeting you and your daughters as well Yes, it will be good to meet up with you. I had the Sleeve surgery over 3 months ago and my daughters are also going with the sleeve procedure. We will be in the hotel the night of the 7th. When we get closer to that date I will get back in touch with you and we can set up a place and time to meet.

At first, I was looking at Dr. Kim, but I changed my mind after I saw 17000.00 for surgery. I then went to Dr. Beltre in Altamonte, but my insurance rejected the claim for non coverage. So, I am now going with Dr. Fernando Garcia in Tijuana Mexico I had mine done by Dr. Kim. Absolutely an incredible experience. No pain from surgery, the hospital staff was top notch and my recovery was incredibly easy. I was back to work - part time with a ride - in three days. Back full time, driving myself in a week. No pain meds what so ever - not even Tylenol. My only complaint was the after appointments. The appt at 1 month, I was in the waiting room for 2 hours. I was incredibly pissed off. The appointments I went to after that, I told them I had to be out the door in 1 hour for another appointment and I needed to be seen at my scheduled time. Miraculously, they got me in quick.

Wow!! Congratulations on your surgery, recovery, and your journey! I can't wait to go! I hope and pray that my journey will be an success and that I will be able to finally start a family with my fiance and no longer have health problems! Please keep us posted on your success

Really? Okay great!!! So we will see each other at the hotel! I am looking forward to meeting you and I am wishing them a speedy recovery and a wonderful experience! I heard that the hotel is very nice and comfy

Oh Great!!! Please let me know about your experience! I will keep you in my prayers You have less than 30 days to go! Are you getting nervous yet? I am sooo happy for you!

Hello! I was originally with Dr. Beltre in Altamonte Springs www.saynotoobesity.com who was going to do my sleeve, but when my insurance (Cigna) denied it and Denied it again after the first appeal, I took my friend advice and booked with Dr. Fernando Garcia in Tijuana Mexico! Dr. Beltre is very good and he has excellent bedside manners. He completed a minor procedure on my back and my war wound healed beautiful without any issues! I would prefer him. I also live near Oviedo and Casselberry area. Hope this helps

Hi there! One of my girlfriends went to see Dr. Fernando Garcia last May. She Did tons and tons of research and found that her best bet was with him. Dr. Fernando Garcia is also accredited through the US from my understanding through my friend. She is a year out and has lost 140 pounds. The only complication that she had was eating after she got back home a slice of pizza and she paid dearly for it. Other than that she said that this was the best decision she ever made. I am scheduled to go to Dr. Fernando Garcia December 8th with surgery December 9th. I am very very excited and happy! I absolutely love Ms. Alma (coordinator) and I've been talking with her since last year 2013. I finally decided to get it done after fighting with my insurance. Ms. Alma always calls my husband whenever he emails her with a question. They make sure that the family is comfortable and worry free. Just pray about your decision because what might be good for Jane isn't for Jake. Wishing you the best on your journey!

I am having mine with him on December 8th so I am very excited to go and experience the beginning of my new transformation! Praying for a successful surgery and recovery!

You are probably gaining because of Muscle. When you exercise you build muscle and it breaks down the fat. So, you should take notice in your inches more than anything. Hopes this helps

Protein shakes can be disgusting but if you drink the "total lean" shakes by GNC they are fabulous! I have been drinking them since July and I have not had any complaints. The pre-made ones are even better until you are able to get the powder ones and add the fruit etc. Hope that this helps

This is normal! You will be fine. Have FAITH and know that you will be just fine! You are doing this for a healthier life

Dec. 9th is my day with Dr. Garcia in Tijuana Mexico!!! Super excited!!!

That's good! Yeah I tried to get it done in the states but the fight with the insurance was too much and I refused to pay over 10k when I can spend less, have the same results, and use my funds to pay off other bills etc. I am very excited to have it in Mexico with Dr. Garcia. A friend of mine had hers done by him and she had no complaints. I am scheduled for surgery on Tuesday December 9, 2014 which is right after my cruise!! It is life changing but at the end we all know it's worth it
