Have you tries eggs yet? We're going camping tomorrow & it's on my menu :)

Made some egg salad yesterday. My wife and I tolerated it just fine. I've read that a lot of people have a hard time with them. We also made tuna salad with mayo. That went down great too. So far, I haven't had anything that didn't settle well.

I just got back home late last night from Tj with Dr. Garcia and had a wonderful experience. I would have to echo everything Jeff said in his original post....it was like he was telling my story. The care, the greatness of the hotel and the bed. I literally felt like I was with family at the hospital. My husband was with me and knows a little spanish enough to communicate better than I could and more times than not he was giving the nurses English lessons and it was so funny to hear them and we would all laugh.....it was just a nice, peaceful trip.

Thank for sharing your experience with us. I'm so so excited can't wait to get my wls hoping to get it done on October.

I have a question.......I was planning to pay with a credit card do you know if they can do that? I'm going thru Alma @ Ready 4 a Change. That can help out instead of taking out a loan

I paid for the surgery with a cc. No problems.

Good luck to everyone headed to Mexico or that have recently gone. I was sleeved on May 15th and including my pre-op diet, I've lost 82 pounds!!!

Yes, you can pay with a CC with no problems but be aware there is a 3% fee (to cover theirs) added to the total. But, $150 extra may be worth it to not take out loans

      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. 🤞
