I was beginning to think that I would never be able to have the VSG done. After having to re-schedule my surgery twice and then just postponing it due to personal and financial issues; I finally set a date that I can keep! I will definitely be flying to San Diego on August 20th and having surgery in Tijuana August 21st!

I prayed real hard about my issues and my prayers were answered. I'm ready to start my new journey.

Congrats! It's exciting to know your day will be coming soon! And it's wonderful weather here in Southern CA (which is pretty much the norm). You'll love it! Good luck!

Thanks you guys! And yes it was very disappointing to have to re-schedule. I had my hopes up too.

Nothing will get in my way this time and I am going to make sure of that! Even if I have to go alone.

I can't wait to experience that Southern California/ TJ Mexico weather! The weather in Arkansas sucks. It's always hot and humid or storming in the summer. Ugh!

I understand completely...I set my date so far in advance im praying my situation will allow to go in November but I've already booked my flight and booked me a room the night before because I arrive in San Diego after 11pm...I am hoping this is a good sign!!!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
