So no doubt that it is a little bit scary to travel to another country just to have a procedure done but all of the staff is wonderful and take great care of you I was nervous about traveling more than my surgery. I today am 1 month post op and feeling good I still have two incisions that are not completely gone but almost, I have now lost 38 pounds and was very surprised by that I am now starting to eat some foods but very very small amounts I think after I got passed all the soreness and really started feeling good getting fluids in had been challenging at times but I feel like I am off to a great start can't wait to see what the next 5 months holds for me
