    Wait Time In Canada?

    In Montreal its about 10 years... when are you getting your surgery?
  5. Hey guys! I am a female 20 years old, from Montreal,Quebec and I will be getting my surgery in February 2013. I will be going alone.. Kind of nervous that I would be going alone... This will be my first and hoping the last surgery I have. I am EXTREMELY nervous! I can't believe I am doing this! I have told a couple of friends and My family. At the beginning they were not very supportive with my decision to go to Mexico and get my sleeve.. But then I showed them this site where I have actually lived in since I decided that I wanted to do my surgery. I will be going with Dr. Garcia, in Tijuana. I am a little nervous but at the same time very sure with my decision. The only thing that has me preoccupied is the fact of all these things appearing that Dr. Garcia has had fatalities and stuff... But I personally don't think its true. I just wanted to know if anybody would be having surgery with Dr. Garcia at around the same date that I am planning on having it (on February 11). Also I would like to know if someone could tell me a bit about the pre op diet with Dr Garcia... Just really anybody that would like to share their experience would be wonderful... T Thank you in advance! =) 20 years old BMI= 46.5 Height = 5'5'' Weight = 277 Lbs

  8. Hey guys! I am from Montreal, Quebec and I am doing my surgery in February 2013. I haven't decided my date yet because I was hoping to maybe find a Buddy since I would be going alone. I am 20 years old and I am 5'5'' and my weight is 277 Lbs. I will be doing my surgery in Mexico, Tijuana with doctor Garcias. So if anyone is interested in being my buddy and going together that would be very awesome.

    February 2013 Sleevers?

    I am actually between doctor Lopez and Dr Garcia im still not sure... Just that Dr Garcia has a lot of comments but I couldnt find a lot on Dr Lopez so im not sure yet. But Rudy from Alighterme told me that she would prefer going with Dr Lopez since he does it with someone else... (2 heads perform better than 1 =p) But im still not sure... I havent booked my date or faxed my papers yet because I prefer doing my blood test here than to have a surprise when I get to Mexico... Cause the last blood test I did, I didnt have any kind of illness but since then I have gotten bigger so we never know... I just want to be 100% prepared.. Jesser, when are you going?

    February 2013 Sleevers?

    Yes I am supposed to be staying at that hotel. What doctor are you going with?
  12. Hey guys, I am new here, well new writing here since I have read pretty much all over this site... I am from Quebec, Canada where there is a lot of obese people but almost no surgeons for weight loss... There is actually a 7 year wait for those that want to go in surgery covered by the medicare or there is self pay options that are pretty expensive 21 000$ to be exact. I am 20 years old and I have always been the fat girl in my group of friends and I have this huge lack of confidence because of my weight. I have always been the shy girl and the girl that makes fun of herself so that people don't feel the need to make fun of me. I was actually bullied when I was in Primary school for being fat.. I am done being sad and mad at myself for being fat and I am also done trying all these different diets and diet pill and nutritionist and personal trainer. I am done being tired after going up a fly of stairs. I This past year has been the hardest since I have always been overweight but never this heavy. 277 Lbs... I am very scared in considering surgery mostly because I would be going to Mexico to get it done and also because I would be going all by myself. I can assume that I am a chicken... I am between two surgeons right now... Dr Lopez and Dr Garcia.. I have heard great things about both these doctors.. I feel like this surgery could help me so much with gaining self confidence and also because I want to be able to do normal stuff like for example this summer I went to six flag in Montreal and I couldn't fit in one of the rides... I was sooooooooo upset and so sad.. plus all of my friends are thin so they mostly can do whatever they want... I would just want to know your experience and also if it hurts for a while... The more I know about the surgery the more I want to set a date.,. I would also like ot know if anybody is planning on going in February 2013 since That would be when I would be going... If anybody could tell me their experience and how it changed your life (for good or bad) I woudl reaqlly appreciate it.
