That's awesome ladies, how is it there? any tips on what else to pack? how is hospital? details please..lol....:-)

omg. I told one of my best friends today and she was very aloof and said..... I hope it works for you!" im like o.....ok? she is struggling with her weight and I think she is jealous or that I am taking the easy way out. I am using all my savings and going through 2 countries to get the surgery. Wow, I felt very sad.

Hi All I am going to Tijuanain 3 weeks and by looking at this site, I feel stupid as I don't know specifics on surgery. Like what size sleeve, should I talk to surgeon, questions I should ask? I have done tons of research but I guess not the right stuff. DO people talk directly with the surgeons in Tijuana or just their coo coordinators? Thanks

Hi Is anyone or has anyone felt soooooo overwhelmed with information, to dos . pre op , post op...vitamins, what to eat and not to eat..not drinking with meals..small bites Omg....I haven't even had my surgery yet I am so overwhelmed, I almost feel like cancelling my surgery, but I know it is self sabotage. Any one feel like this? Thanks

Thanks everyone

Hi I am so overwhelmed, its 3 weeks away in Tijuana and I am so overwhelmed with pre op, Vitamins, post op, quitting smoking, flights, pre op diet, Proteins...over researching, over analyzing if I can actually do this, can I actually make life changes...Am I just scared of being healthy and happy for once? food has been such a major part of my life. Any one relate? Thanks

Thanks Frankisgirl

you don't need luck...you are strong and beautiful, embrace these changes, I do know how you feel

thanks watchoutinmexico

august 24th with dr. valenzuala

Hi this all helped me as well! As you all said, we all struggle. thanks

I don't know why I find this all so overwhelming. I listen to all of you on Vitamin spacing..meals...water...hydration..yet I haven't even had my surgery yet and \im overwhelmed at the preo op, travel to \Mexico...everything seems so much. |Anyone else feel like this?

Hi Lynnanne How come you've only lost this many pounds in 3 months? Is that normal? Are you ok?

HI I am just booked in for Mexico Bariatric Centre in Tijuana, Dr. Valezuela. Im getting scared, as I see NO ONE on here that has gone there???? Help, has anyone had surgery there, or have you heard of anyone going there? Thanks for any info as I am from Canada and its extra scarey...lol..:-(

I am sending you strength, and please send me some in 2 weeks. I am very afraid of the pre op diet. I will tell you this, don't beat yourself up,its one day at a time. You had a salad, and that was a good choice. I hear from my clinic that if I am too hungry I can take a benefibre. Or a fibre pill. Add Some lemons to your Water, have some watermelon or cantelope. u will do good....we will do good. No sabbatoge for us, ok?

Congrats Paige!! omg I was crying reading your post!!!!!! I can identify. What a great story, and thank you. I can hardly wait to not hide in pictures,...that is my goal

when did you have surgery? how much have you lost? not much in your profile so im wondering if this energy is because of weight loss?

Thanks guys, I needed to know that

I agree!!! Get some new clothes ( even if it is from a second hand store)....get some muscle, 5 dollar hair dye and celebrate my dear...I would DYE to be 29 again!!! xoxoxox

That's awesome. I hope I end up like you....getting scared for |August 26th

Happy Birthday.

Im in Canada. But need friends on and off here as I'm not a Facebook er. Booked August 26th at mexico bariatric in Tijuana. Kinda scared now

Hi I have been researching to death all the requirements before, during after the surgery What worries me is the lady I talked to this morning, thought I was wanting cosmetic face lift???? With the t.v. on I the background ( I realize they don't work in Mexico and probably from their homes, but she didn't know. She said I only have to liquid diet for 2 days???? Asked for a deposit??? I then asked her about my medications and doesn't someone look at my health questionnai, etc etc? My BMI is only 38 she said and I wouldn't need 2weeks of pre op diet? This is a big clinic, anyone have anything to tell me, or share. It sounded kind of disorganized. ugggggg now Im scared.

Hi all. I to need friends. Should we all email each other separate or in group? Im in Canada with little support. My email address is leawar0117@hotmail.com

Hi Too funny you ask!!! As I finally told my boss today, and asked for a week off. She said she will give me 10 days to 2 weeks off, and is extremely supportive. I have only been at my job for 3 months!, Maybe be honest to them and they will give you a few more days off hon.
