Usually when people say that they went on a trip to change their life they usually mean thy met the guy/girl of their dreams or they got robbed or something along that nature; but what I mean is my life changed on the scale forever!
I heard about Dr. Almanza through a co-worker who got the gastric sleeve in May 2015 and I decided that I had to do something! Always been over weight and never felt attractive or wanted. I got the lap band done approx. 4 years prior with little to NO results. Worst money I ever spent!
I arrived in Mexico and we did paperwork and then my journey began! It was a short but great visit. People there to help you in any way and always following up with you to make sure nothing was wrong. Sometimes language was a bit of a barrier but one way or another we were all well taken care of.
I was nervous but very quickly my mind was put at ease. I would recommend it to anybody.
