    Where Are My April 2012 Sleevers?

    Mine is scheduled for April 17 in Mexico. I'm everything everyone else is - excited, nervous, scared. Mostly I wonder what life will be like after it's over. Good luck on yours!
  2. I'm booked at the Obesity Control Clinic in Tijuana for April 17th. I know of two other Canadian women who went there and they both had a really positive experience. We fly into San Diego and they pick us up there on the shuttle. First day I think is blood work, etc. First night in the Marriott - 5 star hotel - can't wait! Surgery is the Tuesday and Tuesday night I stay in the clinic. Wednesday, if all is well and I'm keeping liquids down, I go back to the Marriott and I hear they are all set up with broth and sugar free popsicles. :-) Fly home Friday! It seems very straight forward! It's Dr. Ortiz and he was interviewed on Oprah. He's done thousands of these surgeries so I'm pretty confident everything will go well. Price is $6,995 (special on sleeves right now). If I got it done privately at home it's $30,000. Big difference and makes it doable for me! I'm apprehensive, but who wouldn't be - looking forward to the results though. Good luck to everyone having this done - I really believe the long range benefits will outweigh (pardon the pun) the negatives. :-) Deb in Salmon Arm, B.C. , Canada
