Wow what a year! After my mother's suicide last December I decided that life is too short...I was going to be happy! Being fat wasn't in that plan! I began my research on different WLS options. My insurance didn't cover the surgery at all. Then I found out about Dr. Almanza in Mexico. It was an affordable option that ultimately changed my life for good. The gastric sleeve surgery was the exact tool I needed in order to change my eating habits for good. The psychological addiction to food is gone! I am now a size 8 and clothes shopping is so much fun!!! There are no 'fat" pictures of me because I just wouldn't allow it. Here is a picture the new skinny me with my two beautiful daughters! They love helping me find cool clothes. I'm happy as a little clam! I will never EVER be fat again. AND I can not wait to get back to Jerusalem Hospital for my mommy make over! A big huge hug to Dr. Almanza! Thanks for making me pretty again!
