I started at 261 lbs and a size 24. Now I am 184 lbs and a size 14.

My surgery was 2/4 and I am down 76 lbs. The weight loss has been slow for the last few weeks but I haven't been in the gym as much as before. I am trying to get through a busy time at work and get back on my program. My goal was to lose 100 lbs in 6 months but I was 24 lbs away. So my new goal is to do it by month 9.

I had VSG in Mexico with Dr. Rodriguez. It is the best thing I ever decided to do. The cost is about $8000 and the hospital was safe and very clean. It is actually used by the US Embassy.

I had my surgery with Dr. Rod in Juarez on 02/04/12 and the hospital was completely safe. It is unusual for them not to get back in touch with you. Are you going through BeLite Weight? Ultimately, you have to do what makes you the most comfortable because the surgery is not an easy process.
