I went to Mexico back in October, had a GREAT experience. The Dr. was excellent, the hospital was state of the art, and nicer than any I have been to in Oregon. MY experience was positive and most of the people I have talked to that have gone to Mexico have had a very good experience. My friends and family was also very concerned about me going, but I am so glad I did. After 8 months I'm down 75 pounds.

I'm a morning DJ and news announcer for the local radio station. I left TV when I started putting on weight. I still have to dress decently but can wear sandals in the winter if I want and no make up. I'm off by 10am so I still get to be sort of a stay at home mom. I just half to go to bed about the time my daughter does (she's 9) in order to get up at 3:30 each morning. But I love it.

For me the days before the surgery were the worst, not knowing what to expect and questioning whether I'm doing the right thing. Once it's done, it's done and you'll really wonder if you've done the right thing. But after the 2nd day, you'll be feeling better and then at least for me, I knew I had made the right decision. Best wishes for a speedy recovery. Let us know how it goes. Eve

Hi everyone, this looks like a great forum, I just found out about it today from my doctors office. I was banded Oct.12, by Dr. Rumbaut in Monterrey Mexico. I was a self pay. He and his staff were wonderful. I'm down 21 pounds in 40 days and feel great and on track. My first fill is scheduled for Dec.6, and I can't wait! Look forward to "meeting" all of you. Eve
