here I sit in Tijuana all sleeeved

Life is good! Got sleeved on Thursday by Dr. Kelly and I feel great. I am ready to get home and fast forward to week 5 already. Lol. The smells of incredible cooking here at the Hotel Lucerna make me fantasize but the truth is I'm not hungry. Hahaha I fly home tomorrow and just look forward to getting there. I miss my family, my doggy and my bed. I'll write in more detail for those will go after me but I really want to thank you all for helping me be so well prepared, both with information and with helpful tips! More later ...God bless!

Susan, so glad to hear your are doing so well. I got sleeved on Thursday as well and I am doing great! I came home yesterday and it felt so good to be home. I understand that feeling of missing family, doggy and bed.

Thanks...it's so wonderful to be this side of the surgery and doing so well. I'm happy to join so many that seem to share my good experience. It sort of like pregnancy, everyone has there best and worst moments. I started another thread with all my details under "NEW NAME, "Sleeved in Seattle". I put it under the Tell Your Story category, but maybe I should have posted it under the Mexico one specifically...because it really is such a huge part of my experience. I wouldn't change it...it's going to be something I look back on and laugh about for years. I will say...that it was great preparation for a possible trip back to have the apron removed; which undoubtably will be NECESSARY at my extended size and start of 59 BMI.

For my travelling companion, it will be a good opportunity to take care of some business too. Had it not been the weekend for the majority of my time there, my dad would have visited a dentist for a cleaning. So next time, I'm sure he will have his on laundry list of people to see. We ran into so many Americans there who were doing exactly that; taking advantage of the time to get a lot of things done. We were also 'schooled' on the fact that so much of the nutritional items (vitamins, supplements, medicines) are not only less expensive but particularly more potent with less fillers. An interesting thing to research for future visits.

Anyway, if you are interested in details...check out my other thread. Good luck to you all! I'm currently 5 days (6 if you consider my surgery was early a.m.) and I feel wonderful. I'm just about to go walk on my treadmill for a bit.
