If so, check in here with first name and sugery date and I'll look for you in the halls!

I'm Katrina and my surgery is August 27. Would love to "see" who all will be there at the same time! The information is all spread out on the boards in different posts and I'm having trouble remembering who is with me.

Hi! I'm considering the surgery and I will have to be self-pay. How can I find individuals who had the sleeve done in Mexico? Please help me. I've built up the courage after five years...it's time to roll. I want to know who I have to contact and paperwork procedures, costs, etc. Thanks in advance.

I will be there! I am scheduled for the 28th with Garcia I can't wait am sooo excited!

Ok. I just spoke with Alma and she sent my paperwork. I have to get clearance from my cardiologist (heart stent) next week then put my deposit. She said that hopefully I will be in the September group for Dr. Garcia in Tijuana. I am super excited. Thanks again for the feedback.

Islandlife, look forward to seeing you there, perhaps! Coco, good luck! I was in the same place as you a few months ago, researching and finding information.

Thanks,chickadee! Alma called and reserved a spot for me...Sept. 10th. Please keep in touch. Praying for the best with everyone's procedure.

I will be there with Garcia on the 17th of sept!!

Hello,

I have to submit some paper work and pay the deposit this week. I have booked my surgery for sept 28 with Dr.Garcia.

I can not wait. I am happy and scared at the same time.

Hugs

I'll be there on the 28th with Islandlife! Started the pre-op diet yesterday. Very excited!!! See you there!

I'm looking at Sept 20th with Garcia

SweetT23, how's the pre-op diet going for you? I'm craving sweets, but not giving in.

29th with Dr Garcia! Scared shitless but feeling good! What have y'all lost pre op?

Chickadee73, I am craving food of any kind actually. I think my protein drink tastes sweet enough to keep away the sweet cravings, because what I REALLY want is some kind of meat and potatoes combo... Craving carbs for sure!!! We will get through this!!!

29th with Dr Garcia! Scared shitless but feeling good! What have y'all lost pre op?

Depends on when I weigh myself lol. This morning, naked, without an ounce of food or water in me, it showed 7 lbs. After work, with clothes but no shoes, it only showed 4 lbs. STILL. First time the scale has gone down in many moons! I'll take it.

This morning, I am down a total of 8lbs! I try to only weigh in the mornings. I Don't want to psych myself out by weighing after I've been drinking water & eating. I'm feeling alot better & more in control today. In 1 week I will be starting a totally new life, and I couldn't be happier about it! Will be looking for you in the halls bigintexas!

I am having my surgery with Dr. Garcia on the morning at 10:00am. I am the only patient on that day. My name is Annie. I will be staying at the Marriott on August 29th. Hopefully I will see all of you there. Bigntexas, and Islandlife and SweetT23, please post your first names so I can say hi. I will be in the hospital until Sunday when I go back to the Marriott.. We got this my friends, this is the beginning of the next chapter in our lives!!
