Im scheduled for sept 24th anyone?

Yep! Going in this Wednesday. I'm so nervous!

????9/24

Same. Getting sleeved on Wednesday the 24th!

I went this route because I'm sell pay. Everything but the flight down is $4400.00. Can't pass that up compared to like 17K in my state.

The doctor I picked in Mexico preformed a sleeve surgery on both my mother, sister, and aunt. All safe. All successful. None had any issues whatsoever afterwards. I completely trust it.

who did you pick?

Im going with Ready For A Change, their tijuana office. Dr. Fernando Garcia is performing my surgery. He's done three others on my family members so far. I'm so nervous!

I am still scheduled for Monday, September 29. On my liquid diet now and STILL wondering if I made the right choice. I guess I will be doing that right until the moment the anesthesiologist puts me out.

Im feeling the same way. I can't stop worrying that I'm making a mistake. I know I'm not, but it's hard to turn that teeny part of my brain off.

My surgery is almost here!!! I get my sleeve on Tuesday. I CANNOT WAIT!!! So darn excited. I'm so ready for this. Been doing liquids for 12 days now and even that doesn't bother me. My husband is nervous and scared, but I'm not. I didn't know I had sleep apnea until I had pre-op testing and come to find out I do. Can't wait to ditch my C-Pap machine the very minute I don't need it anymore. Having to wear that sexy thing was the last straw. Made want to do this even more. Good luck to everyone scheduled for this week...Our new lives can finally begin. YAY!!!

16 days post-op and doing great! Eating soft foods and energy is returning. Liquids are not a problem anymore and getting protein is easier now since I struggled with the shakes my dr let me monitor protein by food instead :-)

mind if I ask what kind of soft foods. I need ideas for when I get there next week????

I questioned the process myself. I'm glad that I had this opportunity. I know I am only 2 days out, but I know this is the beginning of something wonderful.

Well I am 3 days out. Wednesday morning can't get here fast enough!!! I am down 24lbs since I started pre op diet August 25. Re- doing my bedroom to convalesce in. Went from earth tones to bright purple and black. My husband is out of state for another 4 weeks so he's in for a few surprises!
