Been Gone Awhile.... Im Back ... Dr. Garcia Update

  • Popular Post

Hello everyone,

Its been a long long long while since I have logged in. Things have been hectic but going great.

Just for review, Im Kisha from MD. Had my surgery on May 22, 2012 with Dr. Fernando Garcia. My experience was wonderful from the moment I stepped foot in Mexico.

Starting weight was 216. Goal weight is 145.... current weight 151!!!!! Only 4 months out and I am almost at my goal. Life has changed so much and is going great as a non-obese person. I am now wearing a medium top, medium dress (depending on the store) or size 10, and in pants, also depending ont he store, size 11 or 12. My feet have even shrunk. 7.5 now.

I just want to say anyone considering mexico and Dr. Garcia.... you can't go wrong. They have the best care and Dr. Garcia is the best. If I had to do it all over again... I would... without a second thought. I am happy to answer any questions anyone may have!!!1

some pictures!!!! I dont really have many before picture because I hated taking pictures... but I have tons of after...because the camera loves me now.... or should I say, I love myself now.... sorry for the side ways pictures...I am just too lazy to rotate!
