Easter in Mexico!



Recommended Posts

I just got everything set to have surgery on March 28th. A stay for the weekend, I need all the rest I can get, then back home on Monday the 1st of April. I then looked at the calendar and realized I will be there for Easter! Just as well, I'm getting the greatest gift I can possibly imagine.

Anyone else in for and egg hunt at the Tijuana Marriott?

Me I am!!!!! I was waiting to see if someone else would be there. I am gonna schedule for the 29th. So you can fly in the same day of surgery. I may consider that too. Where are you coming in from? And what time do you have to fly in by in Order to have surgery the same day.

I'm flying in from Phoenix, arriving in San Diego around nine am. I proposed that time to alma when I was scheduling and she said it would be fine. I'm not sure if there is a time limit. The only additional thing she said is that I will need to wear compression stockings in flight. As well as adhere to the no food or drink for eight hours (that will be tough, I always get dehydrated while flying).

I look forward to meeting you! Where are you coming from? Are you traveling alone? I will be:)

I'm also requesting March 29 with Dr Garcia. If there's room on his schedule I'll be flying in the day of surgery around 11am. Do you know what the earliest time is on our discharge from hotel day? Alma told me I only needed one week of a preop diet, but I think I'll do two weeks anyway. Basically I'm already so anxious. Hope they have Versed in Mexico!

I look forward to meeting all of you! I'm a little apprehensive about going alone to Mexico and going through surgery without any loved ones by my side. I'm grateful ya'll will be there going through similar experiences.

I'm flying through Denver on United on the 29th Questions I have are, do we tip the driver, will I get to wear my underpants, and how much is texting going to cost me, oh and whether I'm going to wake up after surgery. Just the little things!

Tip the driver if you wish and no sorry no underpants you have to go commando! Texting cost me .75 cents a text but phoning was ridiculously expensive. Of course you will wake after surgery, no worries, best wishes!!

Deborah,

I just found out how much texting and calls will get me for! 50 cents a text and $2.29 a minute calling! I have a Sprint iPhone and the very helpful young man there told me that my best option was to buy a phone card in Mexico for calls. And also to block my services after landing in San Diego. But, I will be able to access any wifi around to get on Facebook or google plus. iPhone has messaging phone to phone. And google plus has an awesome chat that is similar to Skype, but much more efficient.

Looks like we're all going alone. We got each other though. So if you have an iPhone you can text anyone that has an iPhone and its free. No matter what carrier they have??

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!
