Please add me and invite me to the group: heathermeyer26@gmail.com

Are you going to be at the mi doctor hospital or the marriott? My surgery ison the 11th in TJ.

Thank god..another 11th date..was starting to think i was only one

Just wondering if anyone can share there experience..how is he as a surgeon? Whats he like?

Im from canada and i remember being woken up by my parents to show me the tv...i was in grade 9 ..im not an american but i have always loved american people and my heart went out to you all on that day.. For me i hope its a day of new hope and new beginning..no longer do i want to think of it as a tragic day..i dont think that the people who died that day would want anyone to live life standing still..so im not going to stand still anymore..im going to make the best of my life while i am alive to live it

Im on the 11th at mi doctor in tj with dr ortiz..are u at mi doctor?

Is ur surgery at mi doctor? Im having surgery on the 11th at mi doctor with Dr. Ortiz in tj

Hi diane..sorry i have not gotten back to you till now..life is busy busy getting ready for surgery in 5 weeks...there isnt much to tell regarding how i went about picking a surgeon... i kind of just went 123 your it!! Well not quite like that...i went over to the Mexico forum and read lots of threads to see what doctor was popular...then i googled the name of the surgeons in order to find out wuat company they are through...then i started shopping for the cheapest price package..when i found the price package and the company...i then emailed the company and asked lots of questions and waited to hear back..its not as complicated as it seems..there are a lot of people who work with the different companies and they tend to get back to you with info right away..

Im sure we will find each other at some point..it cant be too harf to find a person in a 35 bed hospital...besides i will need the company cause it looks like my mom wont be going..so this shall be interesting..too bad we couldnt have donr surgery on the same day hey?

Not for me...i had to talk to my pcp and tell him that i couldnt continue with that particular style of diet...i need more than 500 calories a day in order to focus on my schoolwork..ive wasted nights that could have been spent doing homework..but instead was sleeping cause ive been too tired

Im guessing its normal to second guess...i do it too..its more like a " do i really want to put myself through the pain and discomfort and fetting used to a smaller tummy" moment...but then i think about how it sucks to live in this morbidly obese body that sweats non stop and is in pain just from walking...i want to be free to live a healthy active life and this is going to help me get there..so..time to put my big girl panties on and just go for it!!!

I think your the only one ive talked to who has the same date as me right now...not a lot of sept 11th dates for surgery??? Is it a whole 9/11 deal you think?

I hear ya...i get the same kind of thing out here in bc..sigh...

Are you having your surgery done in texas? Or are you headed over to mexico? My surfery is on the 11th!!
