Hello I am 20 years olds and got my surgery yesterday! I made this choice so I would not have to worry about my weight anymore. My normal weight is 110 120, but when I stated college I gained 80 pounds and would lose the weight but gain it right back! I found out about the vertical sleeve just about 2 months ago and had never even thought that having a surgery like this would be for me. My mom had surgery TJ about 2 months ago and after an amazing experience with my mom there was no stopping me! This will change a person life forever. I flew from canada to TJ to have my surgery! I have the greatest doctor that has been there every step of the way! If anyone has any questions please pm me! I know a lot if ppl can find it hard to pay for the surgery but I can maybe help a few ppl out on different places to go! With the best care. Also I cheated 2 time on my pre op diet it was not a big deal at all! Just make sure in your last 24 hours you are on straight clear liquids!

Congratulations! And good for you helping others!! Paying it forward already! Best Wishes!
