I am doing quite well after surgery. (10/29/2013)
I am doing quite well after surgery. I have had only minor problems such as nausea after eating too much or too fast, but these are things about which I was forewarned. We spent a couple of days in San Diego after the procedure, and I was able to walk about 10 miles a day.

Exceeded My Every Expectation (10/25/2013)
They say the proof is in the pudding. I weighed 300 lbs at my highest prior to surgery and today October 25th ten months later I am at my ideal weight of 185 lbs and feeling awesome. Dr. Almanza and staff were tremendous and while I had some reservations about the surgery center going in, they were ... * read more.
Weight (10/24/2013)
I have lost 54 pounds and I am feeling better and looking better. I still have a while to go to get to my goal weight but I feel I can reach my goal. This surgery was a lot more work than I thought and it was not easy but I know for me I could not have lost the weight on my own. You still have to... * read more.
Happy!!!! (10/23/2013)
I have struggled with my weight my whole life! Always hungry or craving something. Since deciding to do this surgery, my life has changed immensely.

A Blessing (10/23/2013)
I was really apprehensive about having the surgery in Tijuana - I guess we all get so jaded in our U.S. bubble! But the overall experience was great. I felt well taken care of from beginning to end. All the staff was very friendly and helpful. The facility although small was immaculate and well-r... * read more.
160 LBS Ago (10/23/2013)
When I came to weight loss agents, I was already dead so to speak (468 lbs & 5ft. 9in tall) I could only walk like 10 to 12 steps before I had to stop. (I was dying for air and energy) So I knew a change had to come. Life could not go on like this. So two years before the surgery, my search started ... * read more.

This surgery changed my life.... (10/19/2013)
I have nothing but good things to say about my experience with Dr. Yanez and the staff at Jerusalem Hospital. I was Sleeved in 2011 and lost 140 lbs. Needless to say I had a lot of flabby skin after the weight loss. Before the mommy package I was in a size 16. At the time I thought I looked pretty g... * read more.
It was a huge step to finally change my life. (10/18/2013)
My Background: I weighed 260 pounds with diabetes and so sad inside that going out to eat was my favorite activity.
My son told me that I didn't have to be unhappy, I could be big and happy. It is hard to describe how I felt. Always being the largest one in the room and feeling like I just wasn'... * read more.
