Hi all! I was reading February/March sleevers and thought we should start an April/May one.

My name is Jaime, I am from Iowa, I am an ICU nurse, and will be 39 on the 25th! I want to hit 40 next year, healthy and happy!

Current stats are

5'5"

220lbs

goal 130ish

I am scheduled for April 3rd

Surgeon- Dr. Mario Camelo Ramos

Hospital- Florence (Part of Oasis of Hope) in Tijuana, Mexico

I am so excited! I have a countdown on my calendar!

I tried the chicken unjury, and it wasn't bad. I was going to get some diet cranberry to try the unflavored. I have done my share of liquid diets and I am dragging my feet at trying the others. They smell like tube feedings to me

I am an ICU Nurse too still working on scheduling. Hope to get the gastric sleeve end of May.

Any chance I know you?

I am Annette. I am from Iowa.

I am getting sleeved on April 16th at Star Medica by Dr. Jose Rodriquez.

I am so nervous but will have my daughter with me.

I am working with Jessica at BeLiteWeight. She is amazing.

Anyone else going at that time?

Current stats

5'4'

261 (at booking)

254 (currently)

Can I ask where in Iowa? I understand if you don't want to say.

I live in Missouri.

I have tentatively scheduled with Dr. Rod in Juarez for April 23rd, I'm still freaking out though so not sure I won't talk myself out of it before then but as of yesterday, I'm on the books ! 

I'm getting really excited. 37 days. May 2nd. I'm so glad this is here to read about people and their stories. It makes me know I'm making the right decision and I'm not alone.

Thanks for your posts everyone! ????

Hi, my name is Lynda from Staten Island, New York. Will be sleeved in April, waiting for insurance approval, which went out on Wednesday. I am 46 years old and have struggled with my weight the last 5 years. I have every illness associated with obesity and doctor only gave 5 years to live. This past summer I decided WLS was the best option to become healthy.
