  1. Hi all, I am booked for surgery at Obesity Control Centre (OCC) in Mexico with Dr Ortiz on July 12th. I am from New Zealand so will be travelling a good 20 hours to have this surgery. Like the US or Australia, the cost of self funding in NZ is around $20-30k NZD. It is incredibly unaffordable which is the reason for wanting to go to Mexico! I am paying $9.5k NZD ($6.5k USD) for the surgery and about $2k for flights. My goal is to lose 64 kg which will put me into a normal BMI. I have heard nothing but good reviews for Dr Ortiz and his team so I am reassured he will see me through with no problems! Their whole team have been in contact with me over the last few days to ensure I'm absolutely prepared for surgery. Anyone else been to OCC for surgery? 108 days to go and counting!
  2. I'm scheduled for July so I'm not much help to you! All the very best
  3. You look amazing, well done! [emoji7]
