    Hey babybel. I had my surgery with Dr Valenzuela two weeks ago. Unlike most people is wasn't scared or nervous at all - can not tell you why though! It was the most easy operation I have ever had. I had and am still yet to have any pain. My incisions are already healed and I went back to work in a secondary school 10 days after my surgery. This is the best decision I have ever made. If I had to do it again I would choose Dr Valenzuela over any other surgeon she and her who team were was fantastic. I came to TJ from London - UK after visiting last year with my daughter who had her surgery with A Lighter Me and Dr Eliaz Ortiz. I thought she had a good team but in comparison mine was the best!! Good luck to you and everyone who is starting their journeys. Here's to the rest of our healthier happier lives xxx

One week post op back from Mexico

by babybel86 on 11-01-2014 at 07:36 PM
Hi sleevers!

I am one week and one day post op today and doing great! I've been meaning to blog sooner, but I really want to think and mediate about what I wanted to blog about in hopes of helping someone.

I went to Tijuana, Mexico and had my surgery performed by Dr. Cabrera. He and his team were excellent to me! I know that many people go to Mexico and before they do, they, like myself, do countless hours of research about every detail. I don't like assume, but

2 More Days!!

by babybel86 on 10-22-2014 at 11:12 AM
Well, I can't believe I've made it this far! In two days I will be on the loser's bench.

I started this journey months ago mentally. I, like many on this journey, have had failed attempts at weight loss after more failed attempts. I've grown tired of being a slave to dieting! I remember last year telling my sister that if I could not lose weight on my own by the beginning of this year (2014) I was going to look into bariatric surgery.

At the beginning this year I went

1/2 way through Pre-OP

by babybel86 on 10-06-2014 at 12:09 PM
Ok so I've been on a pre-op diet for 11 days and have 13 days to go then I start on clear liquids only. It's hasn't been terribly hard, but it hasn't been a walk in the park either. I still crave foods. During the week I have very little problems with cravings but the weekends are much harder to surpass the cravings.

This weekend was my little sisters sweet 16 so I stuck with my shake regimen through out the day and for dinner I had a salad and Salisbury steak with green beans and
