I did and it was SO worth it!!! They use a few different companies and I ended up using medloanfinance. The interest rate and fees suck but it's still worth it to get this surgery!

Any time I bring up going to Mexico around my family they just all kinda chuckle and under their breath say "Mexican weight loss surgery." shaking their heads... Ugh. I have no support either obviously.

That's why I only told a selective few. Some friends and family can be very judgemental. I am nervous and worried without their negative comments so I will not allow them an opportunity to make me feel horrible. I am making this decision for me, my health, and my children. I sometimes wish people would think before they speak or judge.

You are making this decision for you.. my dad was totally against.. it they will never understand and i really don't care.. Now that they see me 5 months later they see why it was important to me and really aren't too judgemental anymore.. it's amazing you have to do what is right for you in your heart because it doesn't matter what they think..

Here is my weight surgery in Mexico SMILE!!!!!!!!!!!! I am smiling because i'm sooooooo happy i made this decision it has changed my life in such little time... Surgery was May 3rd.. just five short months ago!!! With the most amazing doctor.. so happy!! and i wish you all that happiness!!

They don't care about me getting the surgery, I've had NUMEROUS cousins get WLS...it's the Mexico part that my family is against!!! It's to the point where no one will come with me and I don't want them too..I am really thinking of just leaving for the 4 days and not tell anyone!!! Unfortunately, I have to let them know because I have a child that my parents have to take care of while I'm gone!!! My mom told my dad, my dad told my uncle, my uncle told my cousin etc....Just a big mess!!! Lol...I haven't even booked yet!!! DAMN CALM DOWN!!!!

These ppl act like I'm going in a dark alley way on a cot to get skinny by a bootleg doctor!!!! Lolz

Right. Lol I keep trying to explain to everyone that I'm not an idiot. I've done my research, and I'm not traveling to Mx so some doctor can chop out my stomach. But it doesn't matter, they just keep thinking wht they wanna think no matter how hard I try to explain it

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
