  1. I was looking at Mexico and wondering what should it say for type of surgery to get it approved. Looking at February. Because just saying tummy tuck could be questionable. Any advice?
  2. Congrats. Wishing you a speedy recovery. Will or did anyone use FMLA. I'm considering a TT as well.
  3. I'm concerned because it may be in Mexico So Mexico address and I'm not sure if I can use Fmla for plastic. I may go alone too. It's costly to pay for others.
  4. I posted this several times but did anyone use fmla?
  5. I posted this a few times but I'm considering plastic surgery did any use fmla?

  9. Almost nothing. I didn't use anything but PJ s gas x and slippers. Rarely used cell phone and charger. Pillow for ride home. But I packed a load of stuff. Lol Good luck
  10. I'm looking into getting a TT and wondering if its in Mexico who could fill out my fmla form and what will they put down so it does not say cosmetic surgery. I don't think my vsg Surgeon is the person for that. Not sure if my regular doctor will. He was not totally agreeable with the wls. But he did sign. Needless to say I haven't needed to see him since pre op or before. Can anyone chime in what they did for fmla. Thanks
  11. Looking Fabulous. Question if having plastics in Mexico for those of us who work. Who will fill out fmla forms for us ? Concern about time off work.
  12. To the OP, First you really don't know what circumstance people are in that makes them keep this thing a secret I told some family but had health issues unexpected right before hand that left me in tears like a back injury! It complicated things. We made that choice and have to live with it! You deal with your the way you choose. I don't bother with why people have different opinions. I Am Happy!!!! I tell some that I'm comfortable with but at work I dont period.!!!
  13. Hi RJ i Read your story, your are full courage and a blessing.
  14. Hi who was your Doctor and where did you go.
  15. I'm 49 and also have loose skin under the neck. Got told though that I look younger! I do wish to get a BBL, TT, BA with lift I'm looking into them. I'm gonna work on my face afterwards, Starting with a Neck lift. All these one at a time. Funny when I looked into WLS didn't think I'd have to do plastic surgeries but now I'l be excited when i could afford to get some of these things done.
  16. Glad for you! I lost 7 lbs on the 5 day pouch test. Thinking about doing another or the Lil miss boot camp?
  17. Congrats. I use to bike 3 days a week. So Happy for you. I wish I was at your level.
  18. You are very pretty. Wow! She is totally wrong! Congrats
  19. SW 267 start Surgery date 2/27. 260l bs Current weight 196lbs
  20. Suffer with Migraine headache but had only 1 real Headache 5 1/2 months out way better! I say yes Dehydration is the cause. I had to go to the ER with mine before vsg and they gave me IV fluids and potassium. So do Loads of Water and low cal Gatorade. I agree could be caffeine withdrawal as well. Feel better!
