Hey guys!

I just got to Tijuana Mexico and my surgery is TOMORROW at 4pm!!!! I cant wait!!! ☺

Such a great experience so far! Sorry this is all over the place, just so excited to be here!

I flew into San Diego today at 11am and was picked up by David, he is so nice and sweet, I felt like I was hanging out with a close friend. David drove me to Wal-Mart so I could get some last minute things I didn't/couldn't bring on the plane (chicken broth). It took us about 15 minutes from walmart in San Diego to get to the recovery house, so close from the boarder!

I just got settled in at their recovery house, It. Is. Gorgeous! I feel very secure, the front has a locked gate that you have to buzz people in. I pretty much have a 2 bedroom apartment to myself because the last patient flew out this morning.

I'm watching the big game in my room! Go Hawks!! I have access to their wi-fi, english cable tv, and even a laptop that I can use to call home or skype. The beds are so comfortable.

Im going to take a nap but wanted to write yall first. I was so excited for today I couldnt sleep lastnight!

David helped me order a chicken salad from a local restaurant, it was so yummy!

I took some photos of the recovery house, I'll attach them below for yall! Ill do another update tomorrow on the hospital and more photos!

Please ask tons questions if you're thinking about going through Dr.Zavalza. I'd be happy to answer your questions!

*Photos uploaded weird. Ugh.

I hope you have a great experience! Nice digs too!

Hope you have a great surgery! Good luck for tomorrow!

Thanks guys!! <3

I'm about to be picked up for the hospital!!! So exciting! Post more later!

Do you have Dr. Zavalza?!?! Hes so awesome! Dr.Luna too! I am so happy that I went with them! Everyone has been so incredibly sweet to me! I came down here by myself, against my families wishes. But I habent been alone yet, except when I sleep of course.

OMG Amy, I was talking to david when he had you at walmart!!!!! Thabk you SOOOOO much for posting pics!!!!! I am so ready to get mine. I am scheduled 2/17!! Please keep us posted. If u can email; i would love to keep in touch!!!!

I'm interested in joining the Facebook group but am worried everyone on my Facebook page will see it

OK thanks

People can see that you are in the group though if that matters to you. I want to join but if it's closed my fb friends can still see I'm in the group. Usually the secret groups will give you a person to privately message for an invite since they don't show up on the fb search engine.

Hi all! I've been thinking about getting sleeved but I was very overwhelmed with finding a surgeon, after so much researching and I almost gave up. Amy, bless you darling, your posts really helped me decide to use Dr. Zavalza. It's so nice to hear the whole story complete with pictures. I like Dr. Z, his background is out there, he's easy to find, they have post care, even when you're back home and now a Facebook page for his patients to talk. Now I just need date!
