Hi friends, My friends and I are going to Jamaica to a all inclusive resort in July. I had my band surgery March 1. Am I going to have a hard time being there? I know I have to make healthy choices while there, but I really dont want to get sick. Has anyone gone away 4 months after surgery? I know I can graze little meals during the day, but dinner may be a struggle. What about taking Cipro for stomach distress? Should I? Any advice would help be. Thanks again for your support!

Our family's worst vacation was in Jamaica. I guess that it depends where you are. We had a house overlooking a golf course in Ochos Rios. My husband is an international businessman and a Marine-he is pretty much comfortable anyplace. My daughter was assaulted at the falls. We were shook down for money at the same place. While we were driving back to our house, rocks were thrown at our car.

My good friend is Jamaican. They are good hardworking people.

And then we drove down to Negril-completely different. But be very careful in the tourist spots and away from the tourist spots.

i have been to negril for the past 3 years. and can't get enough! i love that place. it's true though, that you have to keep your eyes peeled. i live in new york, so i guess i'm used to it. but the people are wonderful, the food is wonderful and the beaches are beautiful. if anyone goes to negril, you gotta check out 3Dives Restaurant. it's on the side of the road between the rock house and xtabi.

but definitely let a girl know about any LBT Jamaica excursions!
