I had my surgery done on my Birthday which was April 8 th... It was one of the best steps I have ever taken in life... It was affordable...The services provided were excellent the hotel stay, nursing staff, clinic, doctors, transportation team.... I give the entire experience two thumbs up.... I went down there alone with no family and it was cool because I bounded with the other patients that were there getting the surgery or who already got surgery. I was told that i am crazy to go to mexico alone... its dangerous etc..etc... But i prayed about it and was at peace with my decesion and went.As of today, I lost 60 lbs went from a size 22/20 to a size 14/12. I have lots of energy no more sleep apnea and I feel like a new woman. The only complications I had lasted for a month in a half which was holding food down.. Its normal...i felt like i had morning sickness. I had dry skin and my face broke out but i got the right lotion and acne treatment and I am doing fine...After the month and a half passed, I was able to keep food down and followed the diet plan. I make sure I take my vitamins which give me what I need as well. Today I am eating regular with no complications. I just eat small portions and get full fast. I do not feel like I had surgery. In closing, I am 100 percent satisfied with everything. I see my Doctor once a month and I'm healing fine. NO COMPLICATIONS AT ALL.... I tell everyone that I am Blessed and Thankful to God for this experience. He allowed me to be able to get it done and he brought me out of it in one Peace.... I'm including one before surgery and now photos
