What a difference this surgery has made in my life (01/16/2013)
Deciding to have the gastric sleeve surgery was a great choice for me and my family. I could hardly walk, I had no energry, and took several medications. After surgery, the weight came off so fast. I have lost 144 pounds in 7 months and feel so much better. I no longer take any medications. I h... * read more.

Hi I'm Susan and I want everyone to know that this is the best thing I have ever done for me in my life time! My husband said he wishes he would have gotten me the surgery years ago.

Why didn't I do this years ago?!! (01/14/2013)
Having this surgery was best decision ever! ... I have to admit that because of my age (50'ish), it took me longer to recuperate. The first month after the surgery was difficult. I had such low energy that there were many times when I felt like I was going to faint. However, after 3 months, I am ... * read more.

I like how I look (01/14/2013)
I love my sleeve. I definitely think anyone with weight issues can benefit from having the sleeve. I do not miss eating big portions, and no one can tell that I'm different when I eat. I feel normal. I just let others know I'm counting my calories and eating less.
My weight before the sleeve wa... * read more.
So thankful...250lbs (01/13/2013)
So thankful for a chance to get it right. I know I was not to be 250 lbs. I didn't like anything about it. I was 180lbs when I got married 20 years ago. My family is VERY blinded (some his (4) one mine, one ours and (4) of someone else's . So for 20 years I let myself go. But I told myself not in 20... * read more.
Very pleased with results and whole adventure. (01/12/2013)
This was a very simple process and I had wished I would have done it years earlier.
I mainly did it because I was a diabetic for over 15 years and couldn't get my blood sugar under control over the last few years.
I went from 7 pills a day before I started with a 10 to 12 blood sugar level reading b... * read more.
Life changing event (01/12/2013)
I was a little skeptical at first, traveling to Mexico to have surgery. I am a Trauma Nurse in the Emergency Department where I live. I did a lot of research on the Gastric sleeve and Dr. Almanza. Unfortunately my insurance plan did not cover the procedure to have it done where I work. I was very pl... * read more.
A life changing experience! (01/11/2013)
I had been overweight pretty much my entire life and not happy with it, then a friend of mine told me she was getting Gastric Sleeve surgery. At first i thought she was crazy, it sounded like a drastic measure. About a year later when I saw how much weight my friend had lost I decided to look into i... * read more.
