I'm in Edmonton surgery is April 29th in Tijuana

I'm just going through AHS I have my orientation on April 27... no end in sight yet.

What made you choose Mexico? Is there any follow up you have to do?

I didn't want to wait any longer and Mexico was the most affordable. I'm super excited to count down these last few weeks. I had planned this surgery last yr but then a break up, new job, move put it on hold. It's been almost 2 yrs since I decided I wanted surgery. That's exciting you are getting the wheel in motion with orientation

That's a lot of change!! Good for you! I'm excited to follow your progress! How long will you be down there for?

Am also in Edmonton had my sleeve in Mexico 3/29 in Mexicali. Home now an felling great good luck to you both.

How are you finding the eating?!

@@mirVSG I am still on clear liquids until Saturday then I move to fuller liquids for another 10days. Is not too bad with ever day that goes by I feel like I can drink a Little more. But to get 64oz of protein is still hard, but my dr said as long as I get some and stay hydrated am good for now.

Why Regina? If you don't mind my asking?

I was put on the waiting list there years ago, before I relocated to Calgary for work. I was fortunate that coverage between the provinces worked out.

I am in Edmonton and in the middle of the process with AHS. I have finally met with the surgeon and will take the first of the surgery classes in September (I miss the August class because I am on vacation). I am probably looking at surgery in early 2017.
