Does anybody know how it is when you bring a guest as far as if they stay with you the whole time and is there things that they can do close not having a car trying to find out some info for the person that is going with me

Ruben told me my sis couldn't stay the first night with me but the second night she could stay with be at recovery house for $40 cause they'd feed her and take care of her there too. :) for the first night they recommend a nearby hotel and I know there is a Starbucks nearby and a quick taxi ride to a museum and theater that has movies in English and mall.

I'm not getting much in response from them. My guess is Ruben does it all and he can't handle it. Took 24 hours to get a response. Then no follow up email as promised. I want this scheduled 5/19 so I need to get on it

I'd call him. Also make sure you fill out the application, i couldn't see that on the website on my phone but on my laptop I could.

Where you will be yes (I live here) like you said it is a big city so like you would in any city take extra precaution to lock car doors and keep purses with you. I've left my ATM card in the machine at the grocery store near where I live here in Tijuana, someone found it and looked for me in the store and gave it back!!! I was the only white girl. :) But you won't be...there will be other americans in that area.

I figured as much. I read some horror stories that made me second guess myself.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
