    Back home from Tijuana

    I didn't have a porn shop where I was..............darn it LOL! I was sleeved by Dr. Illan at Florence Hospital across from the Bull Fighting Ring on 8/31/13. We didn't have to pay any extra for meds or anything. Funny how they are all so different. Glad you are doing well!
  2. I never saw his name come up on here anywhere. Does he have a coordinator that can send you anything? I had Dr. Illan and his team was excellent. I had the best time and you can read my blog if you want. www.sistersleeves.blogspot.com Good luck on your research! Sherry from VA {{hugs}}
  3. I'd pick him again and again! Surgery was on 8.31.13 and I feel like a new woman Thank you Susan & Omar!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  4. luckily my hubby is strong but yes I'd love for him to just pick me up and ............. cute panties and bras......being sexy again. Yes the list does go on and on! We can do this!!!!!!!!!
  5. well I missed all the specials story of my life! LOL..... They have a special going right now for September but Omar bajabariatrics@yahoo.com or Susan mysurgery.com can give you more on price. My price was $5200.00 b/c my BMI was high but I think it's somewhere around $4300.00 to $4500.00. But to have same outcome I'd pay my $5200.00 again ask Omar and he can probably lock you in a price. Tell him I miss him if you do Sherry {{hugs}}

    The Birth of Frankentummy

    I would pick Dr. Illan and his staff over and over. The care they gave and continuing to keep updated on me is amazing. The personal attention we received while there as far as getting dinner and getting around still amazes both my husband and I. Feel free to ask me anything. I'll give you the honest reply back Going to Mexico is a scary decision but I know I made the right choice!

    last diner in Tijuana

    From the album: sherry24184

    Last day in Tijuana Mexico. Lunch on the beach
  8. so I had my surgery 8.31.13 Dr Illan and arrived on Friday 8.30.13 around 6pm and was in room 7. Were we there the same time? Sorry to hear about your IV but I have a terrible time in the states b/c I have no veins and they got mine 2nd go around. My room was in good shape so I wasn't disappointed with the hospital. I'll have to post my pics as soon as I figure it out. Omar had us all over Tijuana eating soups and hubby eating seafood. Would you do it again? I would in a NewYork minute Wish us both much weight loss success!!!! {{hugs}} Sherry from VA
  9. my surgery was a wonderful experience with Baja Bariatrics. the nurses were great along with the entire staff, I feel like a brand new woman. Omar with Baja Bariatrics goes well beyond the call of duty! He is one of the best persons we have ever met, dont second guess anylonger! call him or video chat with them today, they have changed my life already? I would recommend to my family &friends. Im self pay and this was my only option to go to mexico. Call lookup baja bariatris today! God bless:)
  10. Omar did everything thing from picking us up at our location in San Diego, getting my hubby feed while I ate ice chips after surgery and day before, getting us to hotel (super nice!!!) taking us to get meals that we would never have found on our own. They are such great people inside and out. Call him and ask him anything. I already feel like a brand new person Wish I had done this sooner. I won't lie- first day hurts but once the gas is out you are feeling good. I went through mysurgery.com but you can also go straight to BajaBariatrics.com You will love the Dr. Illan and his team! 619-623-5368 is Omar's cell. Leave a message and he'll call you back.
  11. I'm just getting back home from a life changing experience. My surgery was 8:31:13 with Dr. Illan. I feel like a brand new person and would recommend him and Omar any day hands down! Omar takes care of everything from hotel, to where to eat what to do. GREAT people inside and out. Feel free to message me about anything. I thought Florence Hospital was really nice, maybe not as nice as US but we are going to Mexico. Nurses were very kind and warm to me and didn't hesitate to get anything I needed. They understood enough English that we didn't have any problems. I have pics to post as soon as the JET LAG leaves I'm an East Coast girl...........Call Omar 619-623-5368 bajabariatrics@yahoo.com

    11/5/12 down 110 wana lose 50 more

    when you are looking at carbs and sugar grams what range did you stay in? I know 0 sugars but what about fruits with natural sugars? Some things I see have maybe 3-6g of sugar. I get sleeved 8/31 and really want to get started on the right foot. You show it can be done I'm going to TJ so not sure how much info I will get. Thanks! Sherry
  16. I give thanks to God everyday.

    Yummy puree recipe

    you could add some buffalo chicken at some time too. That would be delish. I bet even blended mushy would be okay Yum!

    Surgery in Tiajuana

    I saw your post about no one being there to pick you up. I was at lose to help you but others seemed to know what to do! Glad all went well Julie! Bea- you will be in my prayers for a successful surgery! Would love to hear about everything once you are out and back home Good luck!!!! Sherry
  20. Well I've bought our tickets for San Diego! Surgery set in TJ for August 31, 2013. Plan on turning this new journey into a mini vacation before and after. I'm so excited to be having my surgery with Dr. Illan and meeting Omar. My loving husband of almost 27 years (wow) will be going with me on this journey. I thought Mexico, no way, until I read everyone's experiences and talked to some by phone. I can actually have this surgery and it's not a dream anymore! I'm already planning (wanting) to start playing golf, run/walk in the Turkey Dash for the homeless shelters in Roanoke VA, go to a waterpark next year and ride all the slides and I haven't even had my surgery yet! LOL! I'm so pumped to get this started. How about you? {{HUGS}} to all
