Lol thanks Comfy!

Wow Andrew what an accomplishment. What's your secret? And Congrats!

I can't wait! I can't wait!

Congrats! I'm waiting for 5/1...Sleeve Day

Thank you. 5/1 is right around the corner. It'll be here before you know it. Good Luck on your journey.

I am doing ok. I get frustrated at times because I eat and sometimes food makes my stomach hurt. I guess some food I can't tolerate. Sometimes I don't want to eat at all. Sometimes I get so hungry I feel like I can eat a horse, then when I try I eat so fast and get too full and the comes the slimies and I feel awful. Sometimes I don't feel the fullness until it's too late. Guess I'm still learning my sleeve and how much it can tolerate. Sometimes I wonder if I'll ever feel "normal" again. Sometimes I feel that I shouldn't have done it. But the good news us I have lost 30 lbs since surgery 43 in total. i am at 240 now. It's pretty awesome. I didn't have any significant problems after surgery so I am not complaining. I just feel different but thats the point right. Change. I am still learning.

Oh yea the mexican folks love to party. The partied both friday and saturday night but it didn't bother me. I was drugged up and slept through most of it.

If you are a light sleepetr you may wanna bring ear plugs.

You can read my updates in the march sleevers post.

Had my leak test ans passed. Yeah!

Ok so I had my surgery with Dr Lopez on friday. I got to the hospital at 7am didn't have surgery until 530. I needed a blood transfusion because of anemia. $200 for 1 pint. The center where they get blood brought the wrong one si back it goes and more waiting. So the put my iv in and a waited n waited the finally its my turn. Dr Lopez came in to talk to me and answer any questions then I spoke to the anesthesiologist. Last thing I remember is her saying im going to give you something to relax and I was out. I woke up with terrible pain in my stomach and having to pee alot. They gave me pain meds immediately and a bed pan. I wet up the bed lol had to change the sheets. The nurse said don't worry it happens all the time, but I didnt feel embarrased. They brought me back ti my room and I had a roomate. One of the gals I came in with so I was happy about that. The nurses took very good care of us very attentive. Folks don't worry about coming to mexico you'll do just fine.

At Mi Doctor been here since 7am its now I had my bloodwork and ekg. They do wear gloves when taking your blood. The hospital is a small 4 or 5 story building. Its nice and clean and the service is good. The waiting is killing me though. My stomaxh is rumbling and im getting a headache from lack of food. Inside im sreaming get to me already. Oh I need a blood transfusion because im severly anemic 1 pint= $200. Oh well the show must go on.

No, but I will probably be driving in from Arizona. it's a 5 hour drive. If I leave at 6am I should be there around 11-12ish. There is a possibility that I may fly if my daughter can't come with me. I have to look up flight times. What time will you be arriving? Are you coming alone?

Hey Fatgirl. I'm in Mesa and would love to join you. Since you're driving where are you parking? This side and walk over? Or buying Mexican insurance and drive across?

Hi Susy, I am parking at the airport and the driver for the company will be picking me up and driving me across the border. I'd love the company. When is your surgery?

I've been an emotional mess since I booked my surgery and flight for 4/4. Deep breaths...

I know how you feel. I actually booked this surgery last year then chickened out! I've been getting those same feelings again this year but i'm gonna keep pushing on! I'm not gonna let being scared stop me this time.

Thank you so much for your reply. What kind of surgery will you be having? I shall look forward to reading your posts. good luck!

I'm getting sleeved. Yeah!

I will be using Dr Lopez in TJ as well on March 22 . Im so freaking excited !! Hope it goes great for u !!!

Thank you! I'll be sure to post my experience from beginning to end. I found that reading other folks surgery experience helped alot. Calms me down.
