I am mike Torres over weight and just been told I am a diabetic at 377 lbs . I am currently on 28 different medications a day. After surgery I am now just taking 3 a day and vitiamims . , I have 3 kids and I want to try to be healthy as possible for them so I decided that I needed a tool to help me loose weight and keep it off. So I decided to start researching diet plans so I can upon the gastric bypass so I seen that it was something I could try . I knew that I wanted it done I just did not know if I could trust Mexico for the procedure. So I decided to leave it in the lords hands and I went to Mexico by myself to give it a try. The deal with bus and getting through customs was no problem just due what ever your procedure is and all will fall into place. The hotel is the hospital recover room. So when procedure is finished at hospital they transport you back to hotel for recovery. The main key is to walk around the more the better and faster to recovery. Don't expect much at hospital it is what it is . Think of life after the weight loss. I am currently at 240 and have lost 137 lbs. I feel great can't eat much but I do snack a lot through the day. The weight loss has slowed down as my body metabolism has slowed . Dr Almanza has changed my life . Thank you. Mike Torres
