Hello, I am just wondering Thx4Dinner if you had to wait long for a reply for your surgery date?

Is April the date you were looking at or is that the times they had available to you?

I to am looking at Dr Cabrera and I am waiting on a reply to see if March is available to get in.

Thanks!

Good morning!

 

I did filled out my stuff back in November and was approved a couple days later but I chickened out so then I waited and tried to go through insurance here in the states but it wasn't cost effective because I'd be paying more out of pocket with my insurance so I came back to it and was able to get it financed and booked within like 3 days. I picked April because that's when I was able to get time off of work. When I booked, Tabatha, with Mexico Bariatric Center, said that Dr. Cabrera was pretty open as far as dates.

 

Have you been approved yet??

I was approved last Thursday and sent in a time frame in Mid March. I am still waiting to hear back from them to see if my Week is good for then!

Hopefully the date works out because that's when my travel partner is available to take time off work.

      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. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
