Hi friends, new and old! It has been forever since I came around. I had my sleeve way back in 9/14/11...and got pregnant with my precious son at just 7months out. I had lost 100lbs at that point and was pretty content with where I was....I had him in January, and have now lost the 24lbs I gained in pregnancy plus and added 13lbs to FINALLY, after 21month REACH GOAL!

I took the long road, but I have a precious baby boy out of that long road and I would not chance that for anything in the world. I was 288, now I am 175. I think I would like to lose another 15.....I still see fat and places I could lose. Anyway, seeing these transformation on others inspired me, so I wanted to do the same for the newbies here. I was a 24w-3x top. Now larges are getting baggy and most of my 14s and sagging, so its definitely getting to be medium-12 time! INSANE...this is the smallest I have been since I was 14!!

On the fence about self-pay options and if Mexico is the right choice (or scared of that option)? Let my experience (first time ever in Mexico) be your guide. Don't let fear hold you back!
