Greatest decision that I have ever made (02/08/2013)
I have been overweight the majority of my life. I have tried every diet and exercise program known to man but nothing worked.

A new life for me! (02/08/2013)
4 weeks have passed since I started the pre-op diet and have had surgery and I'm 30 lbs down. Luckily I have had no pain or nausea, incisions are still healing. The new tummy is a tool. You have to learn how to feed it. Don't eat too fast or it comes right back up! Get your water in and and your ... * read more.
joyfull (02/08/2013)
I was lucky because once I made up my mind I was going to have the surgery I was never bothered with second thoughts or any concerns. I just knew it would be a good choice. I went down by myself to San Diego and was able to find a group of ladies waiting for the hospital van just as I departed the a... * read more.
Plan for some recovery time (02/08/2013)
Although pulling up in front of the clinic is a little un nerving because its in a strip mall next to an Office Max and a huge Porn store...I have no complaints about the clinic, doctors and nurses.

What a Lifechanging Event!! (02/06/2013)
I have suffered from obesity my entire life. At 12 months old, I weighed over 30 pounds...by the time I was 8, I was over 140 pounds! My poor, dear mother was beside herself trying to dress me, as the only pants I could ever wear in Grade School were the polyester "60's" pull-on type pants that were... * read more.
My experience (02/06/2013)
As I write this testimonial it is one month after I received the gastric sleeve surgery with Dr. Almanza. Since I'm only one month out I can't tell you that I've dropped a huge amount of weight yet; I'm just starting, though I am 18 pounds lighter since surgery. What I can tell you, however, is abou... * read more.
