    Thanks everyone! I feel like I have been talking to sooo many people (who have been great). I love that everyone here is really happy with their docs! but hate that it's also what has made my decision harder lol. I think I am leaning towards Dr. Ponce. I can't have it done until Dec., because of school but I am REALLY looking forward to it!

    I went to Dr. Kelly and every thing went well. Its been 6 months i started out at 255 and today i weight 171 alos im 5'6 could probebly have lost more but i have been eating to many cheese crackers lol so im going to try to get back off of them. Also i'm tired of my family saying that i don't need to loose anymore. I would like to get down to 160. Omar was just being hired when i was there but i have had to cal him twice and he is quick to get me a answer or let me talk to Dr. Kelly. Follow your heart. when i was looking about 4 yrs ago Dr. kellys name was out there than when i looked last year his name just came to me again. Good Luck
