This would be sooo much easier if I had someone doing it with me! I would love for both of you to be there when I'm there! That would be great! We could all support each other!

That would be so awesome! It would be nice to arrive with a support system walking the walk together!

I am saving for the $500 deposit now. Then passport cards for husband and I, then plane tickets.

Is anyone scared about crossing over the border? I was cutting a little Hispanic girls hair the other day and she said that she wouldn't go there because they try to get into your vehicle and they climb all over it trying to get in! But she said mainly at night. Ugh. This is freaking me out!

I feel better knowing that the hospital is near the border.

I'm paying my deposit this coming Friday. Got my passport pic done at Walgreen's for only $10. Then I'm taking it to the post office. Going to book airfare thru Hotwire.com.

A little nervous... But mostly not. We will have escorts to and from who know how to get the job done safely.

Dr. Lopez :) but haven't decided if I wanna go to TJ or PV... More than likely TJ though because I'm not gonna be able to enjoy the beach and all that coming out of surgery.

Dr. Lopez using a brand new hospital in PV. I have only heard rave reviews from it.

PV sounds great but I want to go when I can really enjoy it. The money saved by going TJ can be applied to the PV vaca celebration!! :-)

      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? 🤷‍♀️
