I've lost 37 pounds 1 and a half months



Recommended Posts

Wow I'm so excited I just can't tell you how much I wish I had done this years ago. Nov.16th 2009 I had my Gastric sleeve done at Emanuel Jerusalem Hospital in Mexico. Dr Almanza performed the surgery and Dr Betancourt saw everything before and afterwards was in order. Here it is Jan.8th 2010 and I've lost 37 pounds and I feel wonderful and this includes all of the holidays and being surrounded with food. But I know when enough is enough. Thank you to everyone who has encouraged me Dr Betancourt and your team are amazing.

CONGRATS on your weight loss!!! That is so exciting to see the scale move so quickly! I have had Dr Almanza twice now and they are the best!! I love the way Dr Betancourt takes such good care of you!! I'm 11 days out from my revision and have lost 12lbs! Such an exciting time, I can actually see myself reaching goal now. When I had the band I did not think I would reach goal, in fact I added 10lbs to my goal after the sleeve. It is so much easier, no having to "work" with your food!

Good luck and keep up the good work!

Congratulations on the amazing weight loss! Dr. Almanza sleeved me on me on January 5th. When I went to Mexico, I had planned to get a lap band, but once I was there Dr. Betancourt advised that a sleeve would be a better choice for me. He spent an hour with me explaining the pros and cons of each procedure. I am loving the sleeve, so I will be forever grateful for Dr. Betancourt!!!!

I so wish that even 10 months ago they would have pushed more for the sleeve, I had the band and then had to do a revision. The sleeve is nothing short of a miracle, you eat thats it!!. Well what I'm trying to say is that you eat a small amount of food and you are satisfied, no hunger pains. I never feel hungry I eat because I know I need to!

I also had Dr Almanza for both surgeries and think he is amazing! Dr Betancourt is awesome too!!!

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
