Hopefully getting sleeved in January

[trulyamazingtoo 127]

I am hoping to get sleeved in January. I haven't applied for my passport yet (I know... bad me)!!! I will do that Friday. Hopefully It won't take long to get it and maybe I can get the surgery in the 3 or 4th week. I am still undecided about the doctor I will choose but am going to Mexico. I will be going alone. My family thinks that I should just lose weight "naturally". My BMI is just at 35. I was gonna try my insurance but decided against it due to all the hoops you have to jump through for approval. I am nervous and excited at the same time.

@@trulyamazingtoo Nice to meet you! I am kind of in the same boat- my insurance did not cover the surgery and I am ready to do this thing.

I am going to MX in two weeks via A Lighter Me (Dr. Elias Ortiz). I am also going alone as I do not have anyone who is able to go with me. My family and friends are not too keen on me having the surgery. Oh well I am a little nervous, but pretty excited, too!!

You can for sure request to expedite your passport. I did that and got mine in a few weeks. I live super far away from anything, so I am sure if you live in a city or suberb, you should be able to get it pretty quick.

Good luck!

Nice to me you too!!

If you don't mind me asking. How much is it for your surgery.

All good! My package is $4600. That includes everything except for the airfare to get to San Diego.< /p>

An expedited passport should take no more than 2 weeks if you're not in a remote location where mail takes forever. I'm in DC and got mine in about 6 business days.
