32 Year Old Single Mom Looking to Drop 40 Lbs

I'm traveling to Tijuana this week to have Orbera placed. Over the past seven months, I've gained 20 lbs. I was about 15 lbs overweight to begin with. Since my BMI is 28, they won't do the procedure here in the US. I start my liquid diet in weds, and have it inserted Friday. Pretty nervous and excited! Updated on 7 Jul 2017: Hello all! Thanks for your comments and posts. I just got back to the hotel after a day at the hospital here in Tijuana. The shuttle camr for me about 7:30

From 230 to 130

Excellent doctor... very profesional and very detail with explaining the process. The facility and staff over exceeded my expectations. Will do it again in a heartbeat. My biggest regret was not doing it sooner.

42 YO Mom of 2

I just had the Orbera placed on Thursday. I haven't experienced any nausea or vomiting but I do have a bit of cramping. I also feel very week. I've only had broth, juice, and water since two days before surgery. So far I've lost about 10 lbs in just a few days. It all water weight of course. I feel foggy and am not able to drive. I have a three year old that I took to a roller skating birthday party today. Luckily she didn't like the skating part so she sat around with her friends

Chose the Best Surgeon for my Vertical Gastric Sleeve - San Diego, CA

of course the moment when you wake up from surgery is the worst but after day 2, you are walking and feeling better. He explains everything from the beginning till the end of this journey. He is the best in the industry & I know for a fact that he keeps himself up to date with his profession. I literally trust him with my life. I would go again to him for anything else.

My children are my motivation. They are so young and need a healthy mom. I have had a weight problem for a number of years and tried every diet going with some short lived success.

I was sore after the operation and my scars are still tender but it's bearable just have to be careful with my children head butting my tummy. At the moment I am struggling with my protein drinks since they are making me nauseous

28, Fun, Flirty and Fat. Mexico, MX

My story starts like many others. I grew up chubby, did my teens with a little something extra, got hitched in 2010 with the much needed help of spanx and a tightly corseted dress and moved blissfully into marriage with a burger in my hand. A big personality can help you a lot, it can also give the impression of confidence where it lacks. I have never felt comfortable in my own skin, but showing that weakness and sadness and being vocal in my struggle was not something I felt

VSG Sleeve with Dr Ponce in Tijuana, MEXICO!!!!!!!!

So after all this time and research I've finally purchased my plane ticket and paid the $500 deposit. I'm getting sleeved! I decided to go with BariatricPal and get Dr. Ponceto the surgery. Deciding on Dr Ponce was easier thN finding the right coordinator, David from BariatricPal was perfect. I can't wait to see how my trip goes. I go under the knife on the 15th April 2015. I'm honestly so anxious, I'm tired of being fat and immobile. There aren't too many men on these sites

Dr. Jaime Ponce De Leon - Tijuana, Mexico

This group of doctors saved my life! I've lost 120 lbs with the "sleeve" surgery and am very pleased with the level of service offered by this caring group of healthcare providers in Mexico. An added bonus: the price is about half of the cost in the U.S., plus the procedure can be performed quickly (over a four day weekend) safely (this group is very experienced) and with a nice trip to the beautiful Pacific Ocean in Baja, California. Recovery is only two nights
