@@shizwiz, I know, I can't believe it, I'm flying in on the 22nd, but I get there at 7:17pm, and it's outside their pickup window. I'll spend the night in San Diego, and they'll pick me up the next morning. -

Shizwiz, you got that right, I'm scared of the preop. Mainly because I've failed so many diets in the past. I'm scheduled for the 22nd, If I get my travel docs in order by then. -

What Was Your Final "straw That Broke The Camels Back"
emmuje875 replied to bigjoe102's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
I'm turning 25 in a few months, I've been obese and struggling with my weight since I was 14/15, enough is enough. I'm shy, don't approach people becuase I have an acute fear of rejection, moved to a new town and have zero friends, haven't been in a relationship in 6 years. Yeah I'm done, waiting to get some confirmation on when i can travel, as soon as I do, I'm on a plane to Mexico. -

emmuje875 replied to WL WARRIOR's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I've been obese since i was 15, and I'm turning 25 in a few months, and I've had just as much as i can take from peoples opinions. I'm only telling my emergency contact before surgery, and if they don't like it, they can kiss my fat a.. I'd give anyone who has an issue with it a piece of my mind, no holds barred. We can make up next Thanksgiving, when I'm healthy and your jaw's on the floor.
