Hi MouseOnTheMile--my hubby is very nervous for me, supportive, but would rather I changed my mind.lol...He does understand the struggle I have had over the years.

After the surgery in TJ..we are going to stay in LA for a break and rest for a few days as we have a long plane ride back to Northern Canada.

I'm in Edmonton, Alberta and I'm going to Tijuana to see Dr Ortiz :) I'm sure once your hubby knows you're safe and sound after surgery, he'll be nothing but pleased you had it, especially when he sees the results and how it will improve your life.

That's not the one.

Private message phillygal64 with your e-mail and she will send you an invite. (I had a problem locating it too, it might be because ours is a private group - not sure)

Why would Albertans go to Mexico when you can get it in Canada for free?? I am scheduled for November 14 in Calgary and pretty excited about it and have the Alberta health services support behind me including dieticians psychologists and nurses including monthly support meetings... Go Alberta and Canada

Because I'm not waiting the two years and jumping through hoops. I want it enough I'm willing to fit the bill. I've been on the list for almost a year and haven't even gotten a call to book my first appointment.

Same as Mouse in the mile, I am in Northern Alberta and it's a 2-3 year process and we don't have the supports you have down south, we need to travel 5+ hours to get them and that would end up costing me more then going to Mexico.

Plus from what I've heard, if we provide an itemized receipt and fill out a form we can be reimbursed a portion of our costs.

Yes we can, aswell as claiming it on our taxes, but I believe there are certain requirements for that.

I hear you I have been at it for about a year and got lucky by constantly nagging about where I was in the process!! Good luck I hope it goes well.

      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!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
