Hi everyone! I'm 24 and living in Seoul, South Korea.

I weigh 218lbs at 5'3". I just scheduled my surgery for February 16th. I'm so excited! Good luck everyone!

I keep looking for the worse case scenario just to be prepared for the worse things possible. One lady said said she wrote letters to her kids just incase. I am working on the same cause that's how scared I am but I dunno

Crazy--- I thought about making a video to my hubby and son! But I feel like I should think positive, pray and not put that out into the universe!!! Lol. Like you, I just want to be informed and prepared;).

I'm being sleeved February 18th in Tijuana. So excited its right sound the corner! Please send invite for group!!!!

woohoo!!!! We have the same sleeve date!

Hi! I have a surgery date of Feb 28 with Dr Andrei at St Barnabus in Livingston, NJ. I live in central jersey-- near Asbury Park.

I am 56 and have lost the battle with my weight for 40 years. In spite of a bmi of 41 I have had three children, a granddaughter and I've been married 29 years. I am so sick of the weight-- so sick of airline seatbelts strangling me, sick of the constant pain from arthritis in my feet and ankles.

I am ver excited but a little nervous.

Hi everyone! I'm scheduled to be sleeved on February 22nd by Dr. Cabrera Garcia in Tijuana. I'm nervous because I'll be making this trip alone. I've got 4 kids and don't trust them to be home alone while out of the country, so my husband will have to stay home with them. They're not babies, just worried too much could happen with no parental supervision. Anyway, I haven't told anybody about my decision, except my husband. I don't want to hear the negativity about the procedure or going across the border. I've been making myself crazy with VSG research since August when I started a medically supervised WL program, but became very depressed when my insurance denied any surgeries. I scheduled my February surgery date in November and it can't get here fast enough! Like so many of you, it seems I can't fall asleep at night from just thinking about everything. Glad I'm not crazy...sounds like I'm as normal as the rest of you! Glad to meet all of you and hope to hear of someone who will be in Tijuana around the same time as myself!

Lol this sounds like me. My boyfriend told me that he's going to take my phone away because I found a new boyfriend... VST. All I think about.

Ha that's funny! I don't talk about it much even with my husband. If he was able to go with me I think he'd be more interested in the topic, but for now, he seems a bit irritated about having to stay home with our 4 kids while I'm on "vacation". Don't know how much of a vacation it will be!
