Awesome! Where's your surgery & who's your surgeon?

Hi my date is nov 7 with Dr Illan Fraijo I maybe traveling alone too.

Congrats! Lord bless you, may you have a quick recovery can't wait to hear the rest of your experience

Nov 7 Dr illan Fraijo Tj - so excited!

Nov 7 Dr Jalil illan Fraijo Tj

Nov 7th In Tj - antsy, hungry, a little nervous & happy. Wow everything changes Nov 7th. Lord help us

I love God and I love to pray! We all have made a life changing decision to improve our quality and quantity of life. It took a lot of faith to get to this point. Let's lift up each other daily in prayer. Unity in prayer causes miracles.

Thank you - it was so difficult to get here :/ but I'm here Nov 7 surgery. I'm nervous & praying too. Lord bless you

Dang - after I posted it I was thinking sheesh what a newbie, of course its allowed! :/ my coordinator emailed & said it is as long as there's no pulp... but I'm with you all on avoiding the carbs & sugar.

Thank you -

Hi it's my first day pre-op & since I can't have my favorite blended butter toffee mocha the next best is a fruit smoothie from Extreme Juice.... just fruits & fruit juice, does anyone know if this is allowed? Still waiting on my coordinator to respond :/

Thank you for posting this - I'm set for 11/07/13 I'm excited. And Congrats to supbanana & sherry happy for you!

I just got approved for surgery with Dr Illan for Nov. excited & a little freaked out!

I'm considering getting sleeved by him as well

Congrats I am working on the funding part. Where did u get sleeved?

Thank you all so very much for sharing your wisdom.

If you would like more information, feel free to PM me and I will be happy to get the process started with Dr. Illan for you.

Thank you Susan, I'm still looking but thank you. I'll keep them in mind. I plan on having the surgery latter part of next month. I hope to settle on a surgeon by next week. Thank you

thank you sooo much, you're correct my employer explicitly made sure none of it would be covered :// oh well God will provide thank you all so much.

Awesome Girl! Whos is it through? I'll see if they still have the special? Did he come highly recommended?

Good morning anyone have Cigna? Our plan admin said its not covered. He said he asked for an exception but Cigna wouldn't. Has anyone been thru that & still yet got approved?

I'm still doing my research & will probably set it up for 2 wks after Oct 7 my daughters due date. Good for you! How did you make your final decision? Are they about $4700?

thank you so much Sherry I'm glad to hear you had a great experience I'll definitely check him out.

the best to you Madlycap, maybe we'll get the same surgeon

Hello - were you two from the US? I'm seriously looking at Mexico for my sleeve as well. I have 4 friends who had their sleeves in Vegas for $12k self pay. They look great but if I can save the money & still have a great surgeon I'm up for it.
