    Chezaraeh got a reaction from Nicki13 in Financing Options For Self Pay?   
    You can always go through BeLite Weight, but their surgeries are scheduled in Mexico. Thousands of people have done it and if you are self pay, its about $7800 total, or if you just finance through them its $3500 down and $200 a month for 24 months.
    I had my surgery last month with them and everything was great!

    Chezaraeh got a reaction from ProudGrammy in Guilt Over Surgery   
    I feel sad for people, but not guilty. Everyone makes their own choices in life and you can't save the world. We can however feel empathetic for others like us and attempt to help them, but in the end, they will have to want to help themselves as much as we did and we can't let that sadness hold us back.
    Although sadness totally went out the window this afternoon and was replaced with anger. Extreme raging anger when I was at my doctors office getting a check up and this obese woman came in and plopped down beside me and her obese daughter, a 4 year old that looked to be about 150lbs sat beside her. The woman pulled a Dairy Queen sack out of her purse and gave it to the little girl who reached in and started pulling out french fries and cramming them into her face! I was absolutely LIVID! I had ask the nurse at the desk for a cup of ice Water and to sit in the back waiting room.

    I wish I could have shopped there, but they never carried my size. Now that I will be able to wear those sizes soon, I figure why bother buying anything that expensive when a few weeks later it will just be too baggy lol
    Torrid is where I still plan to shop though, kinda affordable and still trendy!

    Chezaraeh got a reaction from TamaraS in Starting Full Liquids Too Soon Bad Idea?   
    thank you everyone so much for the advice. My problem with broth is not that it won't stay down, the problem is I gag at the taste and smell of it. I will try that Knorr Homestyle starters though since I cook with them on occasion. Maybe it is just because my mother in law bought cheap off brand stock lol
    I tried a little bit of canned tuna for dinner tonight and only got about 2 tablespoons in me before I stopped. It didn't hurt and I chewed to pureed consistency, but I know I am not ready to give up on the liquids yet. I am gonna go hunting tomorrow for some different products and do everything in my power to keep trying. If anything, going to cream Soups a few days ahead won't kill me as long as I strain it, but definitely not ready to quit and go straight to pureed.< /p>
    Thanks again everyone for the support!

    I am so excited I can't wait and I am not sure if I am going to be able to sleep tonight. I am going alone, and that is how I want it. Just peace and quiet and recovery! Anyone else going to be in Juarez this week?
