  2. This was awesome, thank you!
  3. Yay!! Congratulations! save a spot for me:)
  4. Mexico bariatrics was awesome. Great staff, great Drs(spk to and see you before and after surgery)! Picked us up and dropped us off at airport. Even took those who felt up to it on a tourist outing for a couple of hours. Hotel(new and fancy) knows exactly why you are there and accommodates you accordingly down to broth and Popsicles and more! Mexico bariatrics staff greets you as you walk into hotel to show you your itinerary for next day! Was the best experience I think we could've gotten!
  5. Good luck it's been one of the hardest things I've ever done but also one of the best and most freeing things as well. When the weight starts lifting it lifts from your mind and heart as well as your body! Enjoy your journey and stay thankful for the opportunity to change your life even through the worst times . Even the days I thought "omg I dunno if I can do this" I made myself never say "I wish I hadn't done this" and that has made my journey so much lighter...and my body too haha! You'll be great!

  22. You look awesome, And you're always so encouraging on here! Congrats on your progress????
  23. It is rly hard, some days are easier some days are tough but it does rly help you after your surgery. Also it's about shrinking your liver for less chance of complications for surgery:) keep going, try and stay positive, you can do it!
  24. Thank you everyone for your encouragement! 625 miles from home! Trying to rest and get fluids in, pillow on the back helps. I'm sure I look crazy at the rest stops walking slowly and w/crazy hair I can't be bothered to fix????...has anyone used liquid Tylenol for body pain?!?
  25. Hey all I was sleeved on the 20th and just have had kind of a rough recovery so I am just feeling a bit down:(! So many pple around me only have gas pain but I have actual body pain and had a reaction to the anesthesia which made me vomit so I am sore from that and I am in Tijuana and have a 15hr drive home (my husband driving) so I've just hit kind of an emotional low and need a little help staying positive! Anyone else have body pain and didn't just breeze through their recovery? Any words of encouragement? Any jokes? Anything would help! Thank you????
  26. @@bigdrewfl glad your surgery went well! I've had lots of nausea n vomiting but I know that my body is rly sensitive to medications n I always feel sick after anesthesia. Anyway Crossing my fingers for a day of calm.

  29. My sleeve day tomorrow as well! Good luck everyone! Hoping we all have great surgeries w/easy recoveries!
  30. Woohoo! Congrats thanks for the confidence boost surgery is tomorrow! Hope the rest of your recovery is easy peasy:)
  31. Keep it up!! Day 2 of liquid diet today, am definitely more lethargic and a little more moody! Sigh..surgery the day after tomorrow! My girls had corn dogs last-night and the smell was overwhelming and oh so familiar. Even though it's hard I have my eye on the prize! I hope food doesn't always affect me that way, anyway,Thanks for posting it's good to follow along and not feel alone.
  32. Awesome, you have such a good attitude for day one compared to a lot of the stuff I've heard! How are you feeling? My surgery is coming up the day after tomorrow!! Best wishes on your journey and the new life you get to lead:)
