What is the benefits of going to Mexic? I have a wonderful surgeon here and my insurance pays 80%

My insurance has an exclusion for weight loss surgery so it is a no go and Mexico was $6k less than doing it here in the states.. My surgeon in Juarez (Dr Rodriguez) has more experience than the dr I chose here in Texas. So it made sense for me to choose to go to Mexico. After the initial shock of "OMG, I am going to have a surgery in Mexico!!!" wore off, I was sold! Ready to do this and get it done!!!

This is great! I bought underwear two sizes smaller thinking that I would need them first before any of my clothes! A "mini goal" outfit is a great idea! I think I will shop this weekend for one. I'll leave it on the hanger and dangle it like a carrot! Thanks for the idea! Come on June..........................

That is a good idea getting the under wear. I got tired of seeing my wife in the saggy underwear. Even the thongs that used to fit nice and snug, now too big.....had to go. Lol. Your man will thank you.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
