  1. Hi, Apologies I have been lurking around this forum for a while before registering, and am now up to posting on here. I have been overweight for pretty much all of my life, I lose weight then gain it and some again and it's not always through lack of trying, some of it is too do with comfort eating due to lack of self esteem and self worth. We all have our own story and not about to post it all on here but maybe one day who knows. I have looked into the gastric bypass and decided this is the best option for me, friends are saying I should just go to the gym more but these are all friends who are a tiny well a size 10/12 and they just don't get it. I have decided to have the surgery in Tijuana Mexico with Dr Ortiz, who appears to have lots of good reviews, but as with everything there is a risk. I am 173cm tall and weigh 294 ilbs, I want to be able to enjoy my son and grow old without too many health issues that are down to my weight. Does anyone have experience on here with Dr Ortiz? I am also trying to decide on how much time I need to take off work, I am thinking two weeks, I work in a office so nothing too strenuous, can anyone offer a view? I am planning to go on my own to Tijuana, has anyone else done this alone? I am so nervous it's unbelievable, but have been uplifted by the reviews on this website, thank you all for sharing your stories. Caroline
