I was very scared, I won't lie! Thought of getting surgery in Mexico was scarey. However none of my negative thoughts came true. Fantastic medical staff , hotel was decent and area where the clinic is very trendy and safe. Surgery went very well for me. Now is the hard part. I have lost 25 lbs since the surgery without exercise, Eating is still hard and I have a lot of acid reflux. I find I do miss the food. I wish the weight was coming off faster considering the calories being consumed but every one is different. The surgery is not a magic solution and I know I have work to get to my goal weight but it has put me on the right path. Already half of my aches and pain are gone. Those thinking of doing this, I say take the plunge. It is well worth it. Good luck and god bless.
