January 5th w/ Dr. Rod in Juarez

Today I got my confirmation on my gastric sleeve for January 5h 2012 with Dr. Jose Rodriguez in Juarez Mexico. Is anyone else going to be there that day? It would be nice to connect with someone while I am there.

I am so nervous i can hardly stand it. I have been waiting years for this day to come and its rapidly approaching.

*edit, oops i put 2011 and not 2012. Im scheduled for 2012! LOL*

You will love him and his staff.  I went in June and am going back on Feb. 8th with my sister!  I have lost 90 pounds!   I would not let my sister go if anything went wrong!!

I had Dr. Rod for my surgery on December 28th.  Everything was top notch and it worked well.  I wasn't sure if Dr. Rod or Dr. Elmo performed my surgery because I only saw Dr. Rod for about 2 minutes but talked to Dr. Elmo several times about the surgery.  But everything worked out well.  Congratulations.  I've lost 14 lbs. the first week which is the most rapid weight loss of my life. 

By the way, whatever you do.. walk..  when you can finally get up 3 hours after surgery, walk around that 3rd floor at Star Medica as much as you can.  That was the only thing that worked for me.
