Yea, California is a big state but it's nice that way! I live in the Merced area. I am planning on going to Mexico and have the surgery done by Dr. Aceves. I've talked to many happy patients, so cant go wrong there. The only thing I worry about is getting the fills afterwards, since some doctors often don't like to touch any surgeries done in Mx. Anywho, hopefully they will find someone to do the fills since going to Mx every 6wks would not always be possible. :banana (I like the dancing banana!)

Thanks Paula! I've been doing alot of research checking out different sources. It's always nice to find one that has people that have been there before to give good advice. How long were you banded and how much have you lost?

I wish you all the best of luck on your trip. I am going to Mexico to have the surgery as I too am self pay. Who are you going to for the surgery?
