Hi! How are you! I too have been thinking about you! Life is crazy right now! I Have been working lots and doing things I never would have attempted 6 months ago! As of this morning I am down 70 pounds! Not sure how that has happened! But so thrilled!! 30 more to go....and then I guess I have to try to figure out how to maintain. I still barely eat anything other than soft foods. I have a lot of restriction. You must be a tiny little thing! How much have you lost? Hope your new life is fabulous and you are beating the men off with a stick! My fireman has decided he wants to marry me! Holy crap not sure where that came from! He is loving the "hot" new me...his words not mine! I still don't see the weight loss and am stuck in a fat girls head...I am sure it takes a while to catch up! Take care! Talk soon! So glad you messaged me!

Hi! I too hit a mini goal today....down 40 pounds. I was hoping to be at 199 by yesterday but no such luck. I have been lazy with the exercise the last few weeks so need to pick it up....not gonna complain that I will never see that 40 again! Congrats on hitting 170! That is VERY exciting!

Thanks for the great info. I guess my Dr is Ariel Ortiz and your doc is a different one but I am sure everything will go smooth. I also will be staying as the Marriot sounds like they are similar in their practices. I chose my Doc due to the standard of excellence rating the facility has that is supposed to be really hard to get and means they are top notch. We will see Thursday. I know he is more expensive and with flights and such it is starting to cost a small fortune!!! I hope my recovery is not too hard. Everyone has such a different experience it is hard to know what to expect. You are brave going to Mx for surgery by yourself.... I am glad you had a safe and positive experience.

So I have to hear how you are doing!!!! Almost one week out!!!! How are you? How was it?

I am having surgery in a week with Dr. Ortiz would love to hear how it was for you and maybe we can encourage each other. Only 1 week apart and same doc! Hope your recovery is going well

Welcome to the sleeved side!!!! You are going to love it here!!!
Hope all went well!!!!

Best wishes for your surgery today! I am praying for a speedy, full and relatively pain free recovery for you!
God Bless!

I forgot.... bring some shopping money!! The souvenir shops are great!!!! ALL prices there are negotiable. I bought some great stuff while I was there!!

Good luck with your surgery today!!! It will be great!!! You will be so happy when you see the pounds flying off!!!
After surgery don't forget to walk as much as possible. It really helps with the pain from the air they blow you up with. If you need support feel free to reach out to me.

Hi! My surgery date is also on the 16th. I thought we could compare our journey to the land of better health.
I wish you the best and hope to hear from you soon.
Blessings......
