    Hello all, I am just posting an update to this forum for those who are looking for a more recent sleever. My surgery was on the 11th of June and I was up and at 'em as soon as I returned to the room from the OR. I was tired from the meds but my pain was minimal. Everyone's bedside manor there was wonderful and professional. My favorite nurse was Karen. Everyone was willing to answer all my questions and even assist with my friend who traveled along. Yes he was bored but he was uber prepared for the boredom. The Marriott was just that...the Marriott. I am extremely picky and very hard to please, so if I didn't have a complaint then you know things went very well. The level of customer service and professionalism was off the charts. I would recommend Dr. Fernando Garcia to anyone who needed it!!!!

    Today I weigh 146.6 lbs. So, I've made my 4th of July challenge. I know that I may bounce up some but I'm going to take this loss and run with it. I'm totally excited! Now to get a plan for maintenance. That's the scary part. I will have to switch my obsession to exercise now and not weight loss. I can do this.

    hello I was right behind shoelover she actually calmed me when I seen how good she was doing needless to say I had surgery it was a breeze no pain no complications nothing had nausea one time they quickly fixed that I was feeling like I hadnt even had surgery i had to look at my stomach to make sure it was done...The nurses was very attentive...always checking on me. stayed at the marroitt which was very nice the room was so peaceful and clean all in all Dr Fernando Garcia Govea gets an A+ in my book some say he's new......but he knew his stuff and i had a painless surgery...he even took a picture of my stomach that was removed because my friend was scared to. I am glad I choose him.... I am 8 days post surgery and have had no issues....Good Luck.....as for Tijuana I felt totally safe I even walked to store after my surgery its a pretty place. nothing like I expected given what you hear about mexico
