landed @ san diego airport..

[pneal 5]

Well folks, I just landed at the airport. Super early. I'm waiting for Ernesto from Dr. Aceves' office to pick me up. I can't wait to meet my sleeve mates. I'm by myself and saying goodbye to my husband and son was super hard this morning. I sat on the plane and almost lost it. I can't believe I'm doing this. I can't eat which is fine with me. Just have butterflies in my tummy instead of a pizza =)

God Bless, I hope and pray things will be well with you.

I wish you well, I was in the same boat, all alone in MX. There will be SOMEONE there going through the same thing I am sure, you can probably hang with them for support. Remember WALK, WALK, WALK to work off the gas and nausea afterward.

Not to scare you but be prepared the worst part for ME was AFTER the surgery, I went back to San Diego to a hotel the night before you are typically discharged, I just didn't want to do the USA customs AND airport security in the same day. I sat there in my hotel and nearly barfed a few times, cried pretty bad and felt totally drained and just wanted to go home. I was so lonely and stressed out. I'm a big tough guy too

Hope your experience is better.

You will do great. I was just there November 25. Be prepared for a long drive to the hospital. 2+ hours other than that and the not eating today. It was super easy. You are in good hands.

I agree with Rootman it is often emotional especially if you feel lonely. Just try to relax as much as possible you are in great hands with Dr. Aceves and his team. You will be home and with family very soon. Keep us posted.

Thanks everyone! It means a lot. I did all my pre op testing and just had my last meal with my sleeve sister and her mom who adopted me =). I'm about to take the sleeping aid and antibiotic I was told to take. @ooh shelia, I'm in Mexicali. Wishing you the best as well! Ill post up after surgery tomorrow! Thanks everyone for your support.
