The gastric sleeve has changed my life! *

  • Age: 30
  • Surgery: Gastric Sleeve
  • Surgery date: October 4th, 2012

  • Surgeon: Dr. Almanza
My experience with the gastric sleeve gas been nothing but positive! I an often asked by friends and family if I would do it all over again and the answer is always yes, I would! Dr. Almanza did a fantastic job and hip staff took such good care of me and I am a nurse so my bar was set high. I had the surgery on a Thursday and was back to work on Monday. My surgery was 3 months ago and since then have lost 67 pounds and 30 inches! I already need a new wardrobe:) My entire life has changed, I went from thinking about food all day to never being hungry! I now eat less than my skinny friends and that feels amazing! For the first time I feel like food doesn't rule my life, instead of living to eat I am just eating to live and that feels great! I couldn't be happier with the surgery or the results!
