Tijuana Roll Call - Surgeries Scheduled for Feb18th-Feb 23rd



Recommended Posts

Anyone else going to be at the Marriott sometime during the week Feb.17-25? Maybe we can plan nightly "meet-ups" and sit together while we sip our broth!!

My surgery is Thursday, Feb. 21st with Dr. Fernando Garcia.

JeniM73,

I'm so sorry to hear that you won't be at the Marriott! But we'll have lots of time to talk while we walk the halls at Mi Doctor.

Feb 18th-23rd Sleevers.... our time has come!!

Do you think we should set up a couple of "get-together" times now? Like maybe 12 noon lunch (broth), 3 pm happy hour (popsicle), and 6 pm dinner (broth)? Then..whoever feels up to joining us would know to meet in the lobby at that time. It's just a suggestion... if anyone has any other ideas for getting together while we are recovering (or...for that first day at the hotel before surgery), please let us know.

BTW... I asked Alma about other surgeries on Thursday and found out that there are a total of four for Dr. Garcia.

See you all very soon!

Martha

      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. 🤞
