I have done all sorts of diets my whole life. Ever since I was a kid I have been on diets. I have lost weight and gained it back. The last two times I had lost the most weight and had kept it off for a while I gained it back was after I had a major surgery and had to be on pain pills or steroids for a long time. I finally decided enough was enough. I couldn't do this up and down battle with my weight anymore. Not only was it hard on me physically but emotionally it was even more painful. I had become so depressed I had stopped living life. I just was going through the motions of living. I had thought about having the gastric sleeve surgery before but was to nervous to do it. So for a long time a sat in my own misery. Until one day I decided I needed to make a change in my life and looked up online places to have surgery. I did my research and saw that a lot people were happy with the results with weight loss agents. Not only for the great price but for how great all the people are from the very beginning till the very end. Even after they still call to check up on you to see how you are doing months after your surgery.
I got to say how impressed I was with the hospital and the staff there. Even at the hotel. The nurses that were there were so great. I got to give a shout out to one nurse who was amazing Sebastian you were great and if your boss reads this he should be giving you a raise.
All the staff were as kind as could be and were there to assist you and answer any question you had to ask and if they didn't know the answer they made sure they went and found out for you. So I never felt uncomfortable at any time while I was there. Oh and before I forget the drivers that pick you up if you come in from the airport can be some really funny guys.
Overall it was a great time and I am looking forward to going back soon to have some additional work done soon.
As of today I have lost a total of 125 pounds and still losing and I am enjoying my life once again and loving it.
