March 31 Sleevers - anyone else out there?

[SweetSusy 9]

Sounds like a good decision! I didn't even look at insurance here. I talked to several friends that went down to Mexico and decided it was good. Really convinced me when one of my good friends who is a nurse went down to the same place I'm going and said it was awesome. Not nearly as "fancy", but very adequate, sterile and good care. My sisters are freaking out on me though.

[Sun Godess 21]

Yeah, I'm not telling anybody hardly. My husband, cousin (who's in the process) and 2 friends (1 who's in process). Nobody else!! People don't understand who are/have not struggle with their weight, and especially have not researched Mexico. It sounds crazy if you don't know about Mexico. You have to do what YOU have to do, and not let other's fears keep YOU from living YOUR BEST LIFE! A long, healthy, happy, feel good life. They won't carry your weight, your sorrow, your diabetes, your heart disease if you come down with these co-morbidities for not getting it in control....they mean well, but do what is best for you!

Being from the USA, I think we are so egotistical to think everyone else in the world is stupid and uneducated. And that is all these doctors do, I think mine does like four a day. I would think they would be pretty good at it.

[Sun Godess 21]

They are! Many are US trained anyway.

[SweetSusy 9]

Good luck! Let's touch base later - okay?

[Sun Godess 21]

Thanks! Good luck to you too, and yes, let's keep in touch!

[SweetSusy 9]

Thanks- any other words of wisdom? Where did you have your procedure done?

I had it done in Baton Rouge, Louisiana at the Woman's Hospital.
