Oh, ok. We drove through Waco last weekend...we were coming from Flint,Tx (a timeshare resort). Yes, I book my hotel at the Holiday Inn Express. I originally had it booked at the Hampton Inn, but cancelled it after reading that the train goes right behind it. I'm sure I'm not gonna be able to sleep much that night anyway, but I don't need the help of a noisey train. lol Where are you staying? Are you going by yourself? My husband is going with me.

I just arrived home from getting my sleeve. I could not be happier. Dr. Almanza and all his staff was wonderful. I didn't have to lift a suitcase. I met a lot of very nice sleevers and we struck up a bond. I went alone and never felt unsafe....I just tried to enjoy the experience and pretend I was on wls vaca. The weather was beautiful and I was cared for so well.

 

It did take 2-3 hours to get across the border (return) but with all the vendors it was very entertaining.

 

I splurged and got a wonderful upper body massage. Severo was my nurse and did a wonderful massage. I will have to go back when I get thin to get a strong handsome hispanic man to give me another massage. What is the saying what happens in Mexico stays in Mexico. lol

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
