Tijuana surgery May 29th?



Recommended Posts

Is anyone else going to do the weight loss surgery in Tijuana at the end of May? I am super nervous for mine, and my whole family thinks I'm crazy for going to Mexico.

I'm getting so excited, looking at all these pictures, I can't wait I wish I could go now so I could start loosing weight, I'm going to have to buy a few things to wear for summer or warmer weather now and I don't want to, but I can't wear my sweat shirts and jeans till May. So frustrated right now and getting more depressed as it warms up cause I know I won't be comfortable in my clothes I have now and I'm going to have to buy something.

I'm having my surgery with dr. Ponce de leon through wls-for-a-betterlife. I am beginning to struggle with the "last meal" syndrome. :/

I already have my last meal planned. It will be at Eskimo Joe's in Stillwater, OK when I take my team to the Special Olympic Summer Games. I did stop all caffine Sunday. I figured I needed Spring Break to kick caffine, I could not work with a major thumping in my head. So far I have figured out that food is more mental than necessary.

I would like to go mid May, but I'm looking for people going as well so I'm not by myself. My family is freaking out.

I'm going the end of may, I'm have surgery may 30, can't wait, the closer it gets the more nervous I get. I have 3 friends here that have done it and 2 more headed there April and May. The last lady that had it done is down 21 lbs. In 23 days, one then it's down 100lbs. And the other one down 60 in over a year.

      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. 🤞
