I had a friend that went to Dr Joya for her lapband and then again her her revision to RNY. She can't say enough good things about him, his staff and the facility.

Woo-Hoo!!!' Good for you!!! If I can get the personal loan I will shoot for the same dates! I would love to go have a buddy having surgery at the same time!!! I'm so excited for you!!!

YES! you should totally book the same dates! When will you find out about the loan? It seems like a lot of people are doing the Tijuana option so I'm not sure I'll have much luck finding anyone going on those dates... I will post an add looking for people a little later just incase!

But I really hope we can do it together! That would awesome!

I should know next week if my co-signer is a go. After that, I will have no prob getting my loan. My deposit will be out down as soon as my school $$$ comes in from financial aid. Fingers crossed by the end of this month!!! But it could be first week of December :(.

There is so much up in the air that is just out of my control at this time. But as soon as I have my loan or my deposit (whichever comes first) I will book. If I get the personal loan, I will try and book the same date as u!!! If I don't get my personal loan, I'll have to save up the $ for the surgery, so I'll have to book towards next November or early December.

I'll keep you posted for sure!!! ;)

Me too! I hope we can do it on the same day! My mom hasn't really been talking to me beside a few emails corresponding about the surgery. I think she was just teling me what I wanted to hear but still doesn't support me because since I booked the flight she hasn't talked to me... she hasnt even phoned in over a week. I am literally by myself in everything I do. So in making this decision for myself I have essentially lost my only parent because of this decision... having someone there going through the same thing at the same time would make it easier. I now have to find someone who can take care of my tiny puppy since she won't anymore. My fingers are crossed for you!!!!!!

Do you mind telling me who the surgeon is in Cancun that you found negative review on? I am scheduled to go to Cancun with Dr. Perez and obviously nervous so if there is anything that I need to know, I would appreciate the info. Thanks

I have seen a few good reviews but not many... this was one of the first few pages I saw and just stopped researching him after I saw this... http://www.obesityhelp.com/forums/mexico/4554433/Dr-Hector-Perez-Corzo-in-Cancun/ I decided on Dr Joya

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
