  1. What is your eating habits like,and what kind of exercise do you do? Just asking.
  2. I am soooo glad for you!!!!! I noticed you have bewn checking for a while! My mom here in Texas, was approved too!!!! Congrats!
  3. AmyT as long as you have peace about your decision that is all that matters! Six months will fly by, and the good thing also is that you are educated about the surgery. So congratulations on peace! : )
  4. Move on! And prepare for four Weeks! If you are sure of your research move forward... There are a lot of patients here in the states with complications...my Mothers bariatric surgeon said something similar, 'you dont want to go to Mexico, we see alot of patients with have problems' yadda yadda yadda, I am confident in my research and my decision, I have made a decision based on facts and testimonials. I do not like the fact that some Americans feels as if no one can do it but us, thats untrue prejudice, as I stated here my first ever consulation with a local surgeon included the option for him to travel to Mexico with me, that is enough stand confident in your decision there is more than one bariatric surgeon, because once he saw that I was secure in my decision he offered me unlimited support group sessions and will be a go surgeon if needed...
  5. Armywife thank you, glad all is well..I need you to find one thing out for me please is there an,#800 at the marriot that families can call? I promise, I understand I am polite as well, nurses usually love me....again glad is well!
  6. Do it for you and no one else! Especially your overweight child!
  7. Its a journey I must take alone! I am more than willing...I just need some positivity, that would be nice from your spouse...for him just to ask me one time "are you excited?" or a "im so happy for you"...but nothing...which is similar any negative comments to me! This is why I come here to lean on the support of my sleevie family...who just recently encouragede to add a photo....I love them all...so I know im not going alone...I will have my whole sleevie family with me...and if I dont check in with them...they will be worried, posting,and,looking....good and well wishes to you.
  8. I have three Weeks left...and I can relate to where you are coming from....I have been counting down for so long, now its just close my eyes and wait!.....I am so excited to finally start a new life, and I lay and imagine what it is going to be like....I do have the support of my mother and thw silent support of my husband, though its hard to tell sometimes, sometimes I think,he may have a underlying insecurity....we wont talk about it unless I bring it up...which I kind of have cut back on recently....three Weeks ago it was coming upon Christmas, so they will fly by...Godspeed recovery and well wishes to you...your in the right place foe support!
  9. Glad all is well and well wishes to you!
