Just a quick update! I am 4 weeks out of surgery. I am so happy with the surgery. I chose this surgery 1st it was more economical compared to the USA, 2nd because I had read through each and every testimonial and could not find one bad thing regarding this surgery with Dr. Mario Almanza, and 3rd I needed a life changing experience that would make me healthier!
My experience could not have been any better! From the time I was picked up at the airport until 5 days later when I was dropped back off at the airport, I was treated like a queen and was well taken care of!
As for the surgery! Truly the easiest thing I have done. I walked away feeling great. ZERO complications, ZERO pain, and even better ZERO hunger pains! I returned to work (full time) 6 days after surgery!
This surgery has given me back my life. I know have the energy to keep up with my family and even my 2 year old grandson.
Again 4 weeks out and have lost 30 lbs. I cannot wait and see what the next 4 weeks will offer me! Then each month there after!
The picture I am posting was taken (left) at my daughters wedding 3 days before surgery (right) was taken 3 weeks after and down 25 lbs. Not a huge change but good enough for me to believe!
My only regret wold be I did not do the surgery sooner!
My sincere thank you to Dr. Mario Almanza and his fantastic staff!
