So overwhelmed! Where to start?

I wanted to start by introducing myself and saying hello and thank you to all the wonderful people in this forum. My name is Sunshine and today was the day that I decided that the gastric sleeve is the route that I need to take. I have been reading over a lot of the old posts and am becoming more excited( and nervous) by the second. I really don't even know where to start. I live in Nevada and making the trip to Tijuana would be my best option financially since I could drive and eliminate airfare costs. I am not insured, so I will have to self-pay. As far as my next step I am still at a loss even after reading through so many of these posts. Thanks for any help that you could offer.

Hi... welcome! What do you need help with?

If you need help in a jiffy, you can always use the SEARCH feature.

@Sunshine1976: Congrats on making this decision. I am in a similar situation. I live in UT and am also planning to drive down to TJ to be sleeved the second week in January. I am going through A Lighter Me. I am not sure if they are the rock bottom price, but I have had such a wonderful experience with them and appreciate the wrap around services they offer. They pick you up from at border parking lot of the US and support you the entire time. I have only read positive reviews about them. Good luck in your search. I hope you have a positive experience with whichever agency you choose.
