July 30 Here I come

[Italiana 0]

Hello all,

I am new to the forum. I joined for support and encouragement from people who understand the challenges of being overweight. I have been teeter tottering between highly overweight and obese most of my life. Now, after the birth of my daughter (she is just about 11 months); I have decided to go to Mexico on July 30th and get the VSG with Dr. Mario Almanza. I did lots of research and I feel this is the right decision for me and my family. I am so excited that in a couple of months people will be calling me the thin Italian girl.

Congrats on deciding on the sleeve and having a date! So exciting! Good luck to you and the 30th will be here before you know it! Woo Hoo!

Congrats, it will be life changing. I was sleeved by Dr. Almanza on 5-25-2011 and things could not be better. My weight loss has been great but the way you will feel is fantastic. They will take good care of you and it will be over before you know it. I cannot believe it has been 7 weeks since my surgery, it seems like only a couple. The time will fly by for you. Enjoy the journey.
