i'v booked my surgery thru ready4change , with Dr. Fernando Garcia @ Florence and Marriott hotel, has anyone had issues with ready4change? and what's the best hotel there? thanks -
I think if you have insurance to cover the cost weight wise would be great, I started my journey with weight wise but my ins wouldn't cover it and I think you get nickeled and dimed, after more research ive decided to have my surgery done in Tijuana Mexico by Dr. Fernando Garica, total cost for me should be 4700.00 barring any complications.travel is my responsibility, they cover 3 nights at Marriott and 2 nights in the hospital and food,

As I look thru the forum I see a lot of different pre op diets. Well I start mine to day and will do the one my dr sent me . It sure looks easier than some up to 3 shakes salad protein ( fish or chicken) Metamucil capsule for hunger if needed. Ok I can do this 14 days.
