Hello everyone

I am having gastric sleeve surgery in a couple weeks, this will be my first time traveling to the west coast as well as it will be my very first flight. I am traveling from Detroit to San Diego and it is a 3hr flight I am a little nervous but more so anxious to get it over with. I am also traveling alone so this should be interesting. I would love to stay in the San Diego/Tijuana area for a few extra days but Im not sure if I will be feeling well enough to do so post op. I think I am going to go a day early instead but I really want to enjoy myself while Im there and do some shopping. Anywho I am ready to be sleeved and start this journey to a new me.... Thanks so much to those who have shared stories it has been very inspirational. I will keep you guys updated as to how everything is going. TTYL

Wow! So many firsts at one time and starting a fantastic journey! Take a camera with you! I had my surgery in the US but I have heard some amazing stories from people who were so thrilled with their Doctor in Mexico. Can't wait to hear yours!

thanx so much angelakay... I will defintely take many pics and I cant wait to tell you guys all about it...

Good luck on your surgery. I have heard some not so great things about this doctor and his team. I don't want to scare you--just want you to be okay. One of his recent patients had to have two surgeries as a result of internal bleeding. I pray that all will go well for you.
