Hi Koala Don't be nervous I just got back from Dr. Ortiz's. My surgery was Thursday the 13th. All went well. The staff is wonderful and the hotel is nice. I sat by the pool for hours. Coincidence - I was googling bicycles this weekend.:clap2: Good luck.

BettyBoo I was jerked around by my insurance carrier so I went self pay. I hope you have better luck than I did.

Hello Hottiebell, right now I am more nervous about going to TJ than surgery. But I keep telling myself that I will be accompanied back and forth so I guess it will be OK.

:omg: OMG June 13, 2006 got paperwork from doc. Two days later applied for loan. One week later Surgrey scheduled. Dr. Ortiz in TJ, MX. Read good things about him. Told nurse on phone 350 pounds. Went home weighed myself :faint: 360 pounds. How did those get there??????? Wanted to die. Corrected the paperwork. Need to lose 5% by Surgery date. July 14, 2006. I believe that is 18 pounds. daunting but not impossible right?????? So it's July 7, 2006 and I weigh 350 pounds.....yes math wizzes that is 10 whole pounds. So only eight more. Started my "liquid only" diet. :hungry: Atkins Strawberry shakes sare no that bad! Slim Fast are better tasting but you can't have everything.
