What else did you pay for in Mexico?



Recommended Posts

I am planning to go to Mexico and making sure I have everything in order money wise. I know I have to pay for surgery, the deposit, plane tickets, possibly a hotel one night before and one after in San Diego, food for companion while traveling, and of course some extra money just in case. Since I'll be on a pre op and post op diet I figure I can bring pretty much anything I need with me to mix into Water to drink. Is there anything else you had to pay for while in Mexico? Is there something I'm not thinking of? Thanks!

My surgery cost included all meds at the hospital, all pre-op testing, the two nights post-op at the hotel, all my liquids including from the hotel (they had a special bariatric patient tray with an assortment of liquids), transportation to/from the airport, hospital, and hotel and of course the surgery. I chose to fly in a day early, so I paid for one extra night at the hotel (my surgery center booked it for me so I got a discounted rate) and I chose to purchase the blood thinner shots from the pharmacy. I brought cash for incidentals and tips for the drivers, but didn't do any shopping or sight seeing. My surgery center did a pretty good job of prepping me for what I might need money for so I was able to budget and bring cash with me, but of course every person will have different needs/wants. Some of the other folks at my center came in early and did tours or shopping, etc. I traveled alone so I stuck to the hotel.

Yes, my plan is to get in and get out. I don't feel a strong desire to do the touristy things. I'd rather save that for a family vacation when I've lost some weight and can do some of the really fun things. Like put on a bathing suit!

      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.

      Lost my Pup last month and struggled really hard for that first month. Stopped tracking intake and slid into old habits here and there. Also quit working out. Can't walk in the neighborhood because of all of the memories we shared. Losing my Pup is the most heartbreaking thing I've ever been through. My Pup was my world 💔
      Talked to my doc during my one year followup and they were not worried about my current status. They know, and I know, that I will get back on track.
