Thanks I will check it out.

Does anyone know of a good protein powder that you can add to just water to drink? I am having surgery in MX and only bringing a carry on so I can't take liquids. I know that they provide broth and sf popsicles but I am thinking I should have something with protein for those first couple of days afterwards before I get home. Thanks

I too am self pay as I don't qualify for surgery through my insurance even though they cover the procedure. Per the conversation I had with them since they didn't pay for and cover the surgery they will NOT pay for any complications or aftercare related to it. That means if I have complications I am on my own. Need to get my vitamin levels checked, again on my own. They will benefit down the road from my having the surgery and getting healthy but won't pay anything towards it. However I really feel like I need to do this. No I don't want to cause a financial hardship on my family and I am praying that there will be no complications but I can't go on like I am now either. So I'm taking the risk, on my own.

I am scheduled on the 16th also! Not too much longer now.

My surgery is scheduled for 9/16 with Dr. Ramos Kelly in TJ. I am so excited. Of course I have the usual nerves, it is a major surgery, but I know this is the right decision for me. For those of you going to MX what kind of "food" are you taking with you? I am trying to just take a carry on so I can't bring liquids. I know they give you broth and SF popsicles but what do you do for protein. I have pre mixed protein shakes that I like but the powdered protein kind of scares me.
