Heading back home. Excited for my new life. I met wonderful sleeve buddies and I'm so glad I choose OCC. My husband wasn't able to come, so he keeps asking my how I'm feeling. Am I in pain? Am I walking bent over ? And I keep telling him know!! My only complaint is the gas. No pain, just gas in my chest periodically. I'm typing this note, waiting at the terminal at San Diego Airport! He too was nervous about me going to Mexico, if your on the fence, Don't be! It's safe!! Nothing like what you see on t.v. The Marriott Tijuana it beautiful and the staff wait on you hand and foot. I'm Sleeved!! I did it and you can to!! Below are pics day of surgery hotel room etc. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -

Hi Land01, I was sleeved 10/20 best decision I could have made. OCC is great! Made great friends sleeve buddies and excited for my new life. No pain except the gas and that's just because I have to remember to sip and not gulp. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -

Hello this is me... The one always hiding behind someone in pictures. The one always taking pictures but not wanting to be in the frame. The one not liking the reflection in the mirror. The one with high blood pressure, sleep apnea, pre diabetes , TMJ and living in constant pain. Always up in weight and rarely down. I've tried it all, HCG, phentermine, topamax, Belviq, Jenny, Seattle, Medifast,WW just to name a few, nothing worked for long. This new normal of yo-yo dieting weight loss then more gain was not normal to me. So,I'm taking my life back in 3 days. I Will be in the pictures and no longer afraid of how it turns out. I will be healthy, and not live in pain. I'm nervous and I'm afraid, but I can't continue to live this way. I'm choosing to self pay, because my Bmi is not enough to get approved by insurance in the US. As I embark on this journey, I will update with pictures and how Things are progressing.
