Sleeve sisters !!! Why go to Mexico alone... ???



Recommended Posts

Hi... Looking for a sleeve sister ... Hopefully you're in the pre operation stage like I am and would prefer not to be in Mexico alone... I plan to have my surgery with Dr Kelly. And I'm hoping to be scheduled sometime in mid to late July. I'm just waiting on my passport to come back... Really looking forward to a brighter future and thinner me!!!

I am looking to have surgery with Dr Kelly in mid to late July as well. My stepmom is going with me as support but I would love to go the same time as you. Mine will probably be towards late July. Trish said the price goes up in August!

Hi GA Girl... I'm going to have surgery with Dr. Kelly on 7/13. I might have to go alone unless I figure out what to do with my young son between now and then. Let me know when you get scheduled. If you end up going after me I'll tell you how it was but would love to have you there at the same time!

Good luck to everyone!! Having sleeve sisters there is awesome! Griselda, meepmeep17, and I were all there at the same time and it was so great meeting them and hanging out. If you're unable to find anyone however, you are in great hands and they'll take good care of you. Keep us posted!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
