Today is the Day for Me!



Recommended Posts

As a self-pay, I elected to have my surgery done through Mexico Bariatric Center in Tijuana. I arrived yesterday where a driver picked me up to take me to the hospital for pre-ops where they took blood, gave me an EKG and finished up paperwork. Then another driver took me to the hotel. Everyone has been so nice, knowledgeable and professional!!! I leave in an hour as I have to be at the hospital at 6AM, again a driver will take me from the hotel to the hospital. I am feeling so many things right now...grateful for this opportunity to repair my health yet very anxious as is to be expected with someone who has been treated for anxiety disorder for years. I think anyone would be a bit nervous but I feel confident in the doctors here and I truly believe I can use this took as intended to help me reduce my weight therefore reducing the pressure causing pain on my arthritic joints. Now, if I end up being a totes hottie in the process, can’t say I would mind! ;-) love to all and thank you for all of you support!!!

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
