Greetings Beautiful People! I have decided to self pay after waiting for almost 5 years for health insurance to offer it as a benefit. I am excited and have been overweight most of my life. Realizing that you need help and that WLS is a great tool and motivator was a beautiful thing. I'm anxious, excited, optimistic about the things I will be able to realize with a lighter me! I am going to Mexico and feel super confident about the decision based on all the research I've done, I truly look forward to the experience scheduled for Dec 15th, 2014 Whooo hooo! I look forward to getting to know all of you and hope to gain friends as this is a wonderful journey I (we) are embarking on!

Awesome! It's great to hear from someone so upbeat. (I've personally had a crappy day). Who is your surgeon?

Congratulations! Welcome!

Congrats, I did mine Sept 14, 2014 and it was an easy, positive experience. I personally would recommend them to anyone. I also told my doctor here in Canada that even if I was offered the choice of doing it here in Canada that I would still have gone to Tijuana, and have more faith in the physicians there than I do here with this specific procedure. I felt completely safe at all times, and enjoyed my little holiday at the same time. It was funny, I remember waking up thinking "that's it, I'm done, really, okay lets walk". Wishing you nothing but luck, it will be so worth it.

Glad you made the choice! Best of luck on your journey!
