Hey July Sleevers!

Hello all!

Anyone out there have a date for July yet? I am scheduled for July 3rd in Tijuana, Mexico with Dr. Almanza. If I could go tomorrow, I would. So excited to get on this journey! We can do this!

I have a tentative date for first week in July for Dr. Jacobo Zafrani in Costa Rica. As soon as I get my passport in I will have a date set in stone! Can't Wait!!! Good luck to all!

Yea robin... I know...still need to get my passport, as well. Yikes! Congrats on the date - we will be there before we know it!

Anyone else finding that the time just won't go FAST enough until July? How are you all preparing?

[nabird77 29]

Hi Smoggy,

I know. The only thing keeping me sane is the fact that I have been so busy at work. I have cut out 98% of the sodas I was drinking - yay! - I was addicted to that stuff. Other than that, I have been trying to get out and walk for about 30 minutes a few times a week. Also wanting to cut back on carbs - addicted to those, too - but that sure has been hard. I will get more serious about it as it gets closer so my body won't be in as much shock when the time comes. Lastly, I have been on a Vitamin regimen for a couple of months. I guess I am most concerned with the hair loss, so I started Biotin along with my multi Vitamin every day. I will begin taking the recommended zinc, Iron, and Calcium soon, as well.

Keep in touch! Hopefully July will be here before we know it!!!!

I dare you to take a really frank "just before op" pic!

I'll bet you'll thank me when you are svelte and have a comparison photo that's hard to beat!

[robin33 71]

Oh, I will get a good preop pic. Not sure that anyone will see it until I lose some weight. Not fond of pics at all!!!

Hey folks! I am scheduled for July 9 with Dr. Almanza. I can hardly wait. I think I am gonna do like you and start altering my behavior now. I am a revision from a lap band.

Why does it seem like everyone on here is going to Mexico for the surg. I just don't get it
