To tell or not to tell? WLS
CanadaLoser replied to RLH7882's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
@@bb8 you are so right, why is this surgery so different then other surgeries with perceptions and stigmas and judgement. It's kinda crazy to think about that way. I hate that "people" in general are so judgemental. -

Amazing!!! Wtg! -
I haven't shared this with ANYONE yet, but I thought it would be a great way to track my journey and get some of my thoughts out on "paper". Does anyone else blog about their journey? I'd love to follow you! Here's my blog: https://canadianloser.wordpress.com/

Need feedback about using Tijuana clinic
CanadaLoser replied to ChangeForever2016's topic in Mexico & Self-Pay Weight Loss Surgery
Which clinic is that? The one I am using is 1 night in MX, 2 nights in hospital and then another night in MX before going back across the boarder. -
What Doctor are you going to? I'm wanting to go to TJ as well! I'm very curious as to your doctor because I'm still so new! Any info on Mexico WLS would be so helpful! There is tons of great info in the Mexico Self Payers area

What are the differences for a cash-pay patient?
CanadaLoser replied to Phynale's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm going to Mexico as well. I have spent the equivalent of WEEKS researching this and am confident with my decision. Check out the Mexico area of this Site, tons of great info there -
Whew! I'm so glad you found another option! Can I ask what the original clinic was?

CanadaLoser replied to RLH7882's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Considering in weight a LOT, in sure people will figure it out when the weight starts dropping quite fast. However, I have told no one except my husband and don't plan to tell anyone else either. If it comes up, I'll assess who it is and how I feel on that moment. It won't stay a secret forever, but right now this is my journey and I don't want it in the open. -

CanadaLoser replied to frankenstein's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A

Tattoos & Piercings
CanadaLoser replied to apointedpassion's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
I am hoping for a March surgery date and don't presently have any tattoos...but for years I have been planning to get one when I take a vacation in a few weeks. Is this a bad idea? I really want a specific tattoo from a specific place (where I'm going on vacation soon)... It will be quite a small tattoo and it will be on my wrist. Is this a bad idea?? -
Switching my account
CanadaLoser replied to HanSolo1977's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
I don't think so. I purposely went with a generic name as to not identify myself for that very reason. I'm not trying to do anything off side, I just want to be able to speak freely about my experiences with people who have been through it! -
Lets talk scales....
CanadaLoser replied to Nurse_Lenora's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
This is such an odd post to stumble upon because an hour ago I just ordered a new scale off Amazon LOL I wish I had seen this before I placed my order so that I could have looked into the ones that everyone has shared! Darn it! haha -
I've seen a lot of posts about hernias but in confused as to why it cokes up so much in discussions about WLS. Can't anyone shed some light?
