12/28/09 My solo trip to the OCC in Tijuana to get my lap band! I decided to share some of pictures of Tijuana and nearby Rosarito beach, because I know a lot of people have doubts about the area. So in with the usual surgery related pictures there are some photography-class inspired shots that I took of things I thought were beautiful and cool and worth seeing. I want to state again, that I am a 30 yr old female and I went to Tijuana to get the surgery completely on my own. I not only had a complication-free installation of my lap-band, but also had a great little vacation to boot! I got to team up with some other bandsters I met the day of surgery and we did some great shopping and put miles of walking in. I think my post-op touristing is the reason I have had NONE of the aches and pains usually associated with having just been banded. So if you are on this board wondering if you should risk TJ, I hope these pictures help to calm your fears :)
