I've lost 213 lbs going from 350 to 139 I feel amazing I have cured my diabeaties and gone from poor Heath to amazing health from a 56 inch waist to a 28 inch well 27 but I can't find pants that small lol who would have thought? the experience was a relearning how to live but well worth the adjustment a friend asked if I'd go through it again knowing what I know now and the answer was an emphatic yes! Would I do it with dr alamanza again, yes it was a little different going to Mexico but the treatment was great and again I wouldn't change anything I went through!! I urge anyone looking to change your future to explore this option. I will be going back to have the skin removed soon so I guess that says it all I will be going back for more surgery to finish the renovation of my body lol
