How much did you pay in Mexico?



Recommended Posts

As you know, I was banded by Ortiz after doing a lot of research on him & I was VERY happy with him. My incisions look like scratches now on my tummy and I'm only 8 days out!!! :D I paid $9500 and that included stay @ the hotel and all the med charges. Fortunately I live in So Cali about 1 hour north of MX so I didn't have to pay travel fees too. I definitely think he is worth the $! I just weighed myself and I've lost 15 lbs since last week!!! Whoo-hoo!!! :P

Hi:

I finally did it. My surgery is scheduled for Nov 4th. Unfortunally my insurance or medicare in Canada won't cover it. I had just finish paying off my credit and now I am deep againg with the surgery ($15.000 cnd).

For years I have struggeled with my weight and I thik is time for me to get some help.

I guess the count is on....I keep second guessing myself as if I made the right choice, lets hope I have.:)

I have read many great stories out there and I hope mine becomes one of those.

By the way how do you get the cute images that help you keep track of your weight, etc on your e-mail?:)

Thanks for the support!

MKFENN,

Are you having the surgery in Canada or in Mexico? I'm curious to know more if you've selected Canada.

Thanks and best of luck!

I am going to Dr. Sanchez at the end of this month. I am paying $8,000 and transportation. There are several doctors in Mexico that get great reviews. Check it all out and choose what works best for you.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      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

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
