Pics of tijuana if your nervous



Recommended Posts

Couldnt take pics at the border crossing (that's heavily frowned of in all countries), but here are two photos from my room at the Tijuana marroitt.

Sorry it may be blurry, blackberry isn't the best camera, but there's a beautiful club and fancy houses up the hill. The other direction looks like Los Angeles to me. And excuse my sloppy word use (working off an iPad).

I know exactly how you are feeling! Every once in awhile I think: "Maybe they (and you know who "they" are...I'm sure you have some of "them" around you) are right and I am absolutely crazy to be doing this!". But then I calm down and get back to that place deep inside of me that knows I am doing the right thing.

I most definitely have some of "them" around me. I try to tune out all the negativity but you can't help but wonder "what if they're right" and something does happen. At the end of the day it is what it is and there's no turning back now. My respiration are getting a bit faster "tad bit of anxiety" when I ponder on the thoughts to long, :)

Oh and the US Consulate is behind the Marriott. This area of Tijuana is nothing like the stereotype. Yes, that does exist, but it also exists in cities across the US.

It's actually very pretty. I'm so nervous and excited and anxious. Sometimes I start freaking out ready to cry, but then other times I know this is a good decision. It helps to have met some other sleevers on here who will be there at the same time.

I know I'm ready for this stupid liquid diet to be over. Sorry...that's my hungry anger there. I just told my youngest daughter to shut up because her voice is annoying me. WTH is wrong with me. Its gonna be a long weekend and a long week next week.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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
