  8. I'm finishing up day three of my pre-op low carb diet and loving it! The first two days where tough but today was easy with planning. If you can stock up on sugar free jello, it's keeping my sweet tooth at bay and helping me stay sane.

  20. I'm officially scheduled for the 25th in Mexico! I'm so excited and nervous!!! @@TamBamVSG which doc did you pick?
  21. Hi everyone! I'm officially booked for April 25th in Mexico. I started this journey at 190 lbs which on my 4'10" body feels like a million pounds. After the last week of low carbs, high protein I am at 187 lbs. I start the liquid pre-op diet Saturday and I'm hoping to be at 185 lbs the day of surgery.
  22. I'm finally scheduled for the 25th! Anyone else going around that date?
  23. @@Band07 when I told my family I was going to The Dominican Republic for a tummy tuck in 2013 they thought I was crazy. However to this day with weight gain and all I still think it was one of the best decisions I ever made. You just have to keep remembering that this is for you! I'm having surgery on the 25th and couldn't be happier with this decision too!!!
  24. Hi y'all! I'm in Denver and just starting the process at University of Colorado. I did the orientation last week and go for my consult Friday. We shall see what they say, fingers crossed I'm a candidate for a VSG.
  25. Hi everyone, Well I'm 4'9" and currently weighing 190. I've struggled with my weight since having my son at 16. In 2013, I had a TT done after losing some weight but have gained it all back and then some over the last two years. I've started the process to go through my insurance but am also researching going out of the country. I really nervous to get denied and to continue gaining. I have my consult Friday, 4/10, to see if the insurance company will even consider me.
