Hi all I am scheduled for May 3rd in Mexico. Anyone else gearing up for surgery?

Mine is Wednesday too. Is yours outpatient?

Finished with last appointment and submitted and approved by insurance. Got ‘the call’ from the office with confirmation with date, May 14th and time 8:00am, I’m first up. I have my vitamins all set and picked up my scripts. Started shopping for clear and full liquids and will be all set with that by the end of the week. I’ll start to transition things to my backups in two weeks and then my last day in the office is May 10th. Told to expect a 2 night stay but no catheter, no drains, no feeding tube, and no blood thinner shots. This thing is really gonna happen...

I’m right behind you on the 15th

Congratulations!!!

Yay. I’m having mine on 5/4

May 13th for me, it’s real!!!!!

I am tentative for May 13th as long as my Endoscopy is fine.

May 1st in Mexico (BariatricPalMX). Less than 72 hours - holy moly!

Are y’all nervous?

I'm not nervous for the surgery at all, but I think I'm starting to mourn the things that I won't be having again: my morning Mcdonalds diet coke, my hot cafe pretzel on Target runs, my cinnamon bears at CVS, the cinnamon twists at Dominos...okay, i need to stop!

On another note, we moved from Helena, AL to Hawaii 6 years ago. Love me some Zoe's Kitchen. Roll Tide!

Has anyone switched from band to sleeve in Mexico??

Extremely. Keep thinking about all the things that could go wrong. During AND after!

But they are not gonna, that messes up your surgeon's record as well as YOU, so they have a more than vested interest in keeping you SAFE.
