SanDiegoSunshine

My mom was sleeved in mexico a year ago she looks amazing still. My best friend was sleeved in mexico over 2 years ago and has keep it off and looks amazing as well.

SanDiegoSunshine, can I ask what your beginning and ending weights were? How long did it take to lose it? I have read that low BMIers also lose slower and less than higher BMIs. makes me nervous.

Good luck!!!!! I was sleeved by him on March 8th. Im down 20 pounds! 195 to 175! Feeling great

Good luck to both of you! I was 5`5 195 pounds. I got sleeved March 8th. 2 Weeks after surgery I am down to 180 pounds! Dont worry about what other people say do it for yourself! I have had a lot of judgment about other ways to lose weight. With the sleeve its permanent as long as I work it right. No gym or trainer or diet pill can do that for me. I want to enjoy the foods I love in small portions of course! Good luck cant wait to hear your stories.

Hello everyone! I was sleeved 3/8 Dr. Garcia. I was 195 pounds bmi 33 I have lost 20 pounds so far!

Oh dear now I'm really worried. I'm supposed to be there on Monday. Same doctor. Same hospital.

What dr. Are you using Amanda? Btw they do surgery on the weekend. I was sleeved Friday and there were sleeves done saturday and a few on sunday

Hi all. Enjoying my visit/mini vaca. The weather is like Summer. Such a tease to an Ohioan. My stomach has been taken over by a colony of butterflies!!!
Heading to San Diego on Saturday morning for some adventuring and then headed to Mx on Sunday.
My emotions are warring inside me back and forth between "Hooray" and "WTF am I doing?!?! :-/

I am up early. I live in SD and have decied to drive to the border park my car, walk into TJ and catch a cab to Mi Doctor Hospital. Having surgery with Dr. Garcia. My best friend and my Mom were sleeved 2 years ago with Dr. Vamboonen. I was there for both. I chose Dr. Garcia because of all your comments and my experience as a guest for the other sleeves I went to on TJ. I will keep everyone posted. Right now im starving! Gonna get my babies off to school then I am on the road! food doesnt taste as good as it feels to be thin and I am ready to be on the loser bench with all of you.

What to pack???....now that I have to think about this it is really becoming real! Anyone else second guessing themselves? My husband is supportive, but not happy about spending our savings on it.
