  1. Is it crazy for me to think that I can have my surgery on October 22 and go back to work on October 28?? I work in an office setting where I'm sitting for most of the day and all work being done on a computer.
  2. It don't take long at all. Most of my time spent was getting everything in order. I made the decision to do this in July and I could have had my surgery weeks later but decided to wait and make sure I had time to get everything in order.
  3. I've always been terrified of any surgeries. I've never had anything done in a hospital before other than child birth and that was very easy for me. I'm surprised that I don't seem to be scared at all right now. I'm sure when it comes time to leave home I will be bawling my eyes out but right now I'm more excited for the outcome. I feel more upset for my son who is only 11 as he's already mentioned to me some of the risks with surgery and how life would be boring without me :'( makes me wanna cry to know that he's so worried and his mind in is overdrive. My surgery is at the MiDoctor hospital.
  4. I am going with Dr. Lopez in TJ on October 22. I am paying $4750 with him. I also know that Dr. Elias Ortiz has a special right now for $4200.
  5. I'm going on October 22 as well. Going with Dr. Lopez at the MiDoctor hospital.
  6. Michelleandcolten can I ask what your starting weight was before your sleeve? You look amazing by the way. I know I'm probably going to want PS by the time I'm done but I'm terrified of any surgeries. I am scheduled for my sleeve on the 22 so I have a long time to go yet. Thanks for all the info.
  7. I've emailed him and just waiting to hear back. If I don't hear by tomorrow I will call him.
  8. I start mine on Tuesday as well!
  9. That's greats. Thanks for the information. I would be a little upset If he wasn't as he's the one I wanted and was offered another one for less money and I still decided to stay with him.
  10. I spoke with Janese from a lighter me and she said Dr. Lopez will be in to perform is already scheduled surgeries. I hope it's true as my surgery is booked for the 22.

  16. I've heard some people say that Dr. Lopez no longer works with A Lighter Me in Mexico. I am scheduled with him for October 22, getting a little worried about it now wondering if he's gonna be there as I really wanted him to do my surgery.
