@@Cbrewington AWESOME!!! That is so cool that you have your BFF going with you. I will go it alone, for some reason meeting (on here) many that have gone thru alone and in Mexico, I am starting to get some relief. I had started process in Mexico last week, I told them Jan 10 but don't have the definite date yet....they said that date was available. Did you already book flights or waiting til closer?

@@Cbrewington I picked Dr. Garcia and have been communicating with Alisha. Lucky you working for the airlines, I always wanted to. I was a pt travel agent back in the day.

Countdown, 5 weeks (and a few days) and 6 for you. I think that time is starting to fly by. Still excited and nervous. The only thing I am truly dreading is the flying back. I wish I had a direct flight but others have done it, so can I.

My surgery is the 7th of December and the flight home is my biggest fear as well. I went "all in" and decided on a one way flight/first class... Never flown first class in my life.. and I'll probably sleep most of the 4 hours home! lol! Excited! Wishing it was here already!

Trust me, if I was going on one flight to a decent city I would have done first class. The last time I got first class it wasn't my idea of first class. In the smaller planes, I still had to deal with people entering by us to board to economy, the storage above us wasn't the real big areas, and neither www as our seating. When you fly from large major airport to another, it is totally worth it. I was so disappointed last time I was treating my husband, and it sucked for us.

      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
