Me too!

Hi, I have booked through a lighter me as well. Many people on the forums have used them as we'll as a ready for a change. I have not had surgery yet but I'm set for October 25. I can put you in contact with my coordinator if you'd like. She always responds immediately with any question I have.

People are jerks:( just be happy with your decision your doing it for you and not them. Next they'll be gossiping cuz they are right, and your weight is gonna drop. Then you'll lose to a size smaller them and they will gossip that u cheated or took the easy way out!.. Screw um!

So if I go to Mexico and have this procedure done, and I itemize my medical which I normally don't can I use the procedure even though it was not done in the us?

I plan on tipping the drivers and such, what amount is customary in your opinion? Do I tip everytime I'm Picked up and dropped off? Or when someone takes me into town? How much extra cash would you bring?

Alone and from Orlando!

Me too!

You have the patience of a saint... It feels like forever for me and I'm next month! Honestly though it would of made more sense financially to put it off for me but I'm very spontaneous!

I saw the post was from July so i did some digging and found this. I dont think she is sleeved yet... for those of you on facebook who heard about my surgery being scheduled here is the update. I am now home from the hospital where I was admitted for pyelonephritis. I called Barix to reschedule and was told my surgeon is no longer operating there, she is moving to a different facility. The other surgeon at the practice has only done half a dozen sleeves, so I will not be having him operate on me. Dr Medvetz will be running the bariatric program at a hospital closer to my house which is also a Blue Cross center of distinction and an ASBM center of excellence. She had performed well over a hunderd sleeves, so surgery is postponed until October at the new hospital which also has back up of an ICU and ER. I am beginning to think that the pyelo was a sign, because I have never had a surgery without some complication.

I loved your story and understood every bit of it. Thanks for sharing your journey!

Well Hello there...(said all sultry like)... Anywho Im set for October the 25th with Dr. Garcia. I booked through A Lighter me, my coordinator is the lovely Janese:-) . I arrive on the 24th and leave on the 29th! Back to work on the 30th! ps...isn't zenoosh awesome!

I've read it and its a myth, from what I hear there is nothing that resets your sleeve per say. Everyone will advise you o track every bite and get back in the basics. Best of luck, you can do it!

Who was the coordinator at a light me? Should I be worried

These diets are weird I have a 34 Bmi and was given a 7-14 day diet. It's going to be difficult but I can do it( mind u I have not started it yet)

I'm going I October te 25th is my surgery date bit arriving the 24th. I'm using dr Garcia though. Head over to the October sleeve groups. At last count there was 156 of us!

I have the same:) I don't start until another two weeks:)

Thank u to everyone who has repliedi will def get the facts before filing.
