Greetings!


I have decided to make my blog public... I figure if I'm gonna get a cyber stalker I just hope he's cute and single ;) So welcome new friends! I love meeting new people. If you are here you are probably thinking of having weight loss surgery or have had it. I had my RNY in Ensenada, Mexico (June 2006) and I usually meet a lot of people who are considering going South of the Border for surgery I'm happy to share my experience but remember there are good and bad doctors in every country I encourage you to do your research and set-up something for after care. I have two degrees (Political Science and Child & Family Studies) I tell you this to let you know that I am not a Doctor, Nutritionist, Dietician, Therapist, etc. etc. please don't get your medical advice from a blog or messageboard. When in doubt call your Dr. I love to cook (I do some part time catering) I post a lot of recipes and I hope you enjoy them... remember though the stuff I write here worked/s for me and is ok in my plan. Everyone is different so YMMV. End of disclaimer.

I feel blessed to have been given this awesome second chance and I'm glad to share my experiences I hope it eases someone's journey.
