Struggling with My Weight. Looking for Bariatric Surgery in Mexico (Tijuana?)

Hey everyone,

I never thought I'd be writing something like this, but I guess I just need to put it out there. My whole life, I've struggled with my weight. It wasn't just about appearance--it was about feeling trapped in a body that didn't feel like my own. I've tried everything: diets, exercise plans, even those expensive weight-loss programs that promise results but never seem to work for me. Every time I'd lose a little, I'd gain it all back, sometimes even more.

The worst part? The way people look at me. The judgment, the stares, the unsolicited advice from strangers who think they know what's best for me. I've avoided mirrors, skipped social events, and even turned down opportunities because I was too ashamed of how I looked. I tried so hard to love myself, but it's been an uphill battle.

I know surgery isn't an easy way out, but after years of failed attempts, I think it's my best shot at finally living the life I want. I've been researching bariatric surgery in Mexico, especially in Tijuana since I've heard the cost is way more affordable than in the U.S. and that there are some really reputable clinics. I came across places like Renew Bariatrics. Does anyone here have experience with them or other weight loss clinics in Tijuana? I'm nervous but also hopeful.

If you've been through something similar, I'd love to hear your experience. How did you choose the right clinic? Was it safe? And most importantly - how did you feel after? I just want to know that there's light at the end of this tunnel.

Thanks in advance for any advice. It means the world to me.

Weight loss surgery, I believe, is no longer going to be necessary and is being replaced by injectible drugs. I would do that first and see if it works for you.
