The Pool at the Marriott in TJ



Recommended Posts

Is it indoors or outdoors?

Anyone know what the weather is like there towards the end of this month?

I was planning on bringing a bathing suit and spending some time in the pool the night before surgery. Is that realistic at this time of year? (In 13 days)

I would disagree with that statement! I had my sleeve last year, on Nov 3rd, The pool is outside, and while it wasn't 'cold', it wasn't sunshine and butterflies either. I'd say it was high 60's, low 70's. I'm from Arizona, so for me, this was not 'summer swimming weather'. Also, it is much colder at night than say the midwestern US. The pool is not heated, although they had a jacuzzi, when I was there, the jacuzzi Water was not calibrated correctly, and needed chlorine. I did not see anyone sunning or swimming while I was there. Take your suit, it won't take up much space in your bag. If it's tolerable for you, go for it! Good luck and congrats on becoming a Mexico sleever!!

Hi Italian, there are 3 hot tubs next to each other outside also. The pool is nice if you hit a warm day, but we mostly hung out in the hot tubs.

I just got back from TJ yesterday (traveling with my son). It's been in the low 80s during the day. It was very nice. Supposed to be that way for at least the next 10 days.

I will be there Nov 1st too. I'll be fllying in on the 31st. If you're around, we can get in the hot tub together!

That sounded lesbian-like and dirty. I didn't mean it as either. LOL.

I've done so poor on my pre op diet... Had a recent death in the family (young person, tragic, unexpected) and have turned to my drug of choice-food. Part of me thinks "well, I should eat all of this stuff while I still can" but another part of me is like "if I could go on a 2-week diet of liquids, I wouldn't be in this position". I'm one week till surgery now and I'm trying hard to be disciplined. How about you? How are you doing??

Oh my gosh, Ringo, so sorry to hear about the tragedy.

I made a commitment to stick 100% to the pre op diet. I just don't want any complications or to get turned around and resceduled. It's not too late. You can get clean right now! If it were me (and u should check with your doc cuz I'm not a physician) but personally... I would take a laxative today and start cleansing my system of all the bad stuff. Then I would go on 2-3 days of Protein Shakes only (whatever amount of cals your doc ordered) mine is 900. Then I'd do the remaining days on pure liquid. Two ISOPURES will give u 80 grams of Protein with only 320 cals. Swansons makes some delicious flavored broths now...hot n sour, tortilla Soup and ginger chicken. I'm on 900 cals of shakes, lettuce and fish, chicken, eggor yogurt a day Til Tuesday when I go totally liquid. Have lost a pound a day on the pre op so I'm down 15 lbs now. C'mon girl, you 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.
