- Surgeon: Dr. Mario Almanza
I thought having this surgery was the cheaters way out and I was going to do it the right way. After many (20) years of trying diet after diet and not losing enough to get me to stage where I could manage it on my own. I finally listened to my sister who had gone 3 years before me and Dr. Almanza performed my surgery too. I'm 3 months post op & down over 50 pounds & buying new clothes. Getting used to the smaller portions is difficult because your brain still thinks you want a whole pizza but you stomach says 1 slice is plenty. I'm so happy I did this, I will continue to lose because over eating is a thing of the past. I'm so happy I made this decision & you will be too.
