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.

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

      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? 🤷‍♀️
