Thanks so much for your good advice and common sense. I am having my surgery a week from tomorrow (July 2nd, 2012) in Tijuana at the Obesity Control Center with Dr. Ortiz. So far the gang there have been amazing. My conference with the Nutritionalist was great and my start weight was 257 and I have lost 10 pounds already, so something is definitely working. I still have a ton of questions for this week, but I am confident and so relieved that I am finally going to have the surgery....Thanks for your support.
