I did it! A date in Puerta Vallarta!

I finally pulled the trigger and put my down payment in with Dr. Joya!! Due to my travel schedule it's still not until October but --- I'm very excited. Thank you to everyone for your candor and sharing your experience south of the border! wahoo!!! Kristy

Good luck to you, it gets very exciting as each day passes. Laura

Kristy, You and I are in the same boat! I just made my plans and getting ready to pay the down payment. I have never been so nervous in my life!!!!!!

Wahoo is right!!! You are going to love it. I had mine in August of 05 with Dr. Joya and have been singing him praises ever since!!! You will love it and not to mention, he is kind of cute!!! Good luck and congrates with your big decision!!! Jen

Kristy, You won't regret going to Dr. Joya. I had my RNY with him and his staff in Aug. of 2005. I got to my goal in 11 months (lost 100 pounds). I have had absolutely no problems. My only regret is not doing this 10 years sooner! Best wishes to you! Kina

Congrats on your decision. Dr. Joya and his team are first rate! I was very pleased with the entire experience. Good Luck. JP

Hi Kristy and CONGRATS on setting a date!!! I'm hoping (wishing and praying too) to be down in PV in October too! Maybe we'll be there the same time! Hope the next few months fly by! Take care, Susan =0)

That is GREAT news. I am happy for you. I will be having surgery with him next week (30th of Aug).
