  • Surgeon: Dr. Mario Almanza
I had my surgery on May 9th 2016, I had a lap band for like 15 years my weight was at 333 when I got the band, because I was having severe reflux issues I needed to get my band off, and the sleeve procedure, my sister had the sleeve and was very successful with it so I figured it should be fine for me, as I had already learned to eat small amounts. Not so I went in at about 150 and here I am one year later at 217. I am just sick about my choice to do this.
