So after you get over the liquid phase and back on solid food again, would anyone like to describe what their typical diet looks like? Just wondering what kind of variety people get and still losing. Missy

I live in the Cincinnati area myself. I've weighed out the costs when I was deciding on going to Mexico versus doing it here in town. I was coming up with anywhere from 16,000-18,000 if I did it here, compared to the 9,500. That didn't include aftercare for fills either. So I thought it was better to go the Mexico route. Not to mention that I felt good about the experience difference.

Melissa --That is nice that your sister and your mom are both going. It's funny because my sister and I are really close but I haven't told her. She's a nurse and see so much that it freaked her out when I just mentioned I had been reading about it. So I figure, I'll just keep it to myself for now. Karen--I think that's great that you felt like you could do it by yourself too though. Sometimes I wonder if I'm being overly cautious, just thinking I will get a negative reaction, when it might not be as bad as what I'm thinking!

I'm still up in the air on if someone is coming with me. My boyfriend or mom wants to come with me and are very supportive, but for some reason, I feel weird about someone being there. I think I've always felt like my weight is such a personal sturggle, I don't want to let someone in on that. If I thought I could totally do the surgery and not tell anyone, I probably would. Does that sound stupid? But most likely, one of them won't want me going by myself! What about you?

Hi everyone! I'm new to the board but have been reading posts on here for a long time. After much research, I have scheduled my date on August 25th. Is anyone else scheduled that far out? Looking for someone else that might want some handholding!
