I Know!! Ty One more night....15 ish hrs..omgosh...so excited...... awww straws ...ty i will pack some!!

Wow..Hi everybody...im from Northern AB Canada and heading to Mexico tomorrow. Just found this app... maybe a week ago. Im haing rny performed ..tg my gallbladder already removed yrs ago. Im really excited and nervous... i have only told a handful of people. I am also going alone...spouse working a shutdown. I am staying a few days beyond regular time ...for obvious reasons. Gonna hate traveling and not being able to eat...lol...isnt that one of the best part of travelling?? Haha. Glad to see everyones recovery is going ok...and sorry to hear about the one or two who havent lost any or a significant amount yet...is there a reason given for this??

Ty! 24 hrs and im on a plane! Wed surgery...yes im wondering how to ensure hydration...sure would be easier with a drip!! Lol...Gurgling sounds...like now?? Damn im hungry!! But i can get through this!! Usually im great at not eating!! Which is a bad thing of course! Are u vomiting? You must be eating...well drinking sips all the time...or so it seems to keep hydrated?

Good luck you all... i am traveling tues...in 24 hrs actually...lol...surgery on Wednesday the 26th of march.. Very excited ..but eek how can i travel without buying food?? Haha. Im suffering from lack of sugar..coffee/caffeine and carbs!! Almost fully packed..

Good job... i knowledgly understand how hard it was for you to quit....so you had your surgery or having on the same day as me??? Im traveling tuesday..now how does one get through traveling without food??? Eek. 34 hrs til on the plan i can do this!! Good luck with your surgery...where are you having yours??

34 hrs and I will be on a plane...sooo excited.....omg living without sugar and or carbs is fricken tough

Haha....im not sure!! A forever manicyre...is that a shop? I just got my gel nails this week...110$.. geesh it is expensive up here! Re WW ya took me 9 months...a school yr to lose 30lbs...ugh...that was many yrs ago...lol Great job on the treadmill btw...soon youll be able to get outside and enjoy the parks!! ...eek is it time to start counting down the hours??

So happy for you ladies..i hope you are doing well...I gear the first month is hell...as for follow ups...local doctors. Lol. There really is no follow up unless you want tummy tuck or other skin lift in a few yrs.

wrong page ...you said local surgeon... but other question still applies

Wow..thats great....where in mexico did you go?? How was your experience coming home and the following weeks??

Wow..nice..so how is your journey going? I hear dehydration is a huge concern

Wow...well had i looked harder...i probably could have waited...but 5 yrs in BC is ridiculous and that dr has people from all accross Canada too...making it sound..seem like there was only his business in Western Canada.. Did not want to get the run around here in AB...and $6500 USD is far better than the $18k ive seen. Yes Im in Northern AB ....how else could i afford this...lol TY Getting anxious ..leave tuesday!!

I know another person started a Canadian thread in specific surgery area..but another thread may be helpful...as there are vaying choices...and this is a great place to meet our close neighbours.. btw my name is Yvette...I recently moved from BC to AB...the frustrations of waitlist is undescribable esp after 5 yrs. Paying myself now..heading to Mexico on Tuesday... am nervous and excited....

Fort Mac AB

Im from ft mc...heading to tiajuana on tues...would love to hear from you...im doing through Ready4Achange with dr garcia at florence hospital..43 yrs old..female...my nane is Yvette

Does anyone know if Cranberry juice mixed with All Greens berry mix is acceptable?? Is apple juice ok? I assume all teas are ok?? Op on Wed... flying out tuesday

Hi..i think i finally figured out this site....First wow and ty for reading my post. My name is Yvette...Im at the most weight ever in my life..ive been trying for yrs to get surgery ..ive recently been on a 5yr waitlist..but now we can afford to pay for it... im po'd some dr just putting things off meanwhile Im 42 and feel im losing "a life" of adventure and fun good health and much happiness. Like the first 39 yrs were traumatized enough... Hey dr..I want to get married...been 18 yrs with my spouse...god knows im lucky to have him be so caring an supportive all these yrs. I want to work and feel that my weight has squashed my hooes if a career. I have a ton of education and cant seem to get a job and when i did have been bullied ir re traumatized at work... i trust no one...so this us a huge step.... but im at that point of discouragement...never have been suicidal..but ill take my chances at a foreign hospital and drs and staff so that i can take back my life...enjoy baseball...skiing...hiking...travelling..oh hey since ill never be a 25 yr old fatish bride...how about a 43 yr od healthy and skinnish bride...I Deseve It!! Ohhh details...lol so i leave on Tuesday from Northern Alberta Canada...fly to San Diego where driver will pick me up..take me to the hotel...next day at hospital for tests and surgery....stay in hosp for 3 or 4 days then hotel for the night or i stay extra night and fly home April 2nd Almost have everything prepared to leave and prepared vitamix soups for when i get home...Is anyone on this site familiar with Ready4aChange...the Florence Hospital ..or Dr. F. Garcia...or perhaps you will be there during same time ad me???
