Surgeon Testimonial

Jose Rodriguez
Most people when they hear about people having surgery in Mexico they invision such horrible conditions. Boy,were they shocked when I told them about my experience.

The hospital was new and the cleanest hospital that I have ever seen. Cleaning staff clean your room three times a day and you must sign that they did it. Next came an inspector and he nactually did a whoite glove test.

The staff were so friendly and yes they do speak English. They even sat with me because they thought that I was scared. (I went to Mexico by myself)Everything was explained to me.

I would recommend him and the staff to everyone! I wish I had known about him years ago.

Never, Never, Never Again
on May 14, 2010 6:17 pm
I am so happy today.  I had joined the weight loss challenge  and had wanted to get to 308 by Memorial Day.  This morning I stepped on the scale and was at 298.  Not only did I pass this goal but I passed my get under 300 goal and to get under 50 BMI. 

I thought that I wasn't loosing weight fast enough but when I break down the weight divided by weeks I am still averaging about 4 lbs a week.  So I am very happy.

I am going to keep working my band so that I will never,never,never be like I was and see 300 lbs again.

Today is a great day!
on May 8, 2010 10:57 am

This morning I stepped on the scale and had dropped 6 lbs.  I guess that my body is making up for the stall that I had.  The I went to try on dress pants for work.  I hate shopping for pants.    I found a size 18 pants which fit nice so I bought those.  While I was in the dressing room my nephew brought me a pair of navy blue pants and told me to try them on.  So I out them on and modeled them.  He was laughing when he told me that they were a size 14.  I didn't believe him so I had to go back into the dressing room to take them off and look at the tag.  They really were a 14.  WOW!  I can't believe that I went from a size 30-32 to a size 14.  Today is a great day!

Found Something After All These Years
on May 7, 2010 5:44 pm
 I found out that I have to work out of my company's main office for a few weeks for training until my new construction site is ready so tomorrow I need to go shopping for dress pants.  My boyfriend thought that I really didn't need them until I tried a pair on.  I came out to the living room with my hands on my hips to model them and he thought that they looked fine.  So I took my hands off my hips and my pants literally fell to the floor.  After he quit laughing he agreed that I couldn't wear them to the office.  But, I noticed that when I had my hands on my hips I found my waist again.

This was encouraging as the last few weeks I have stalled.  But, this morning the scale showed that I lost 3 lbs.   Hopefully, it will keep moving downward

Life is Good!
on April 23, 2010 3:29 pm
Well, I have not lost any more weight but I have not gained any either. But, today I had to do things at work that before I would not have physically been able to do.  I hauled 30 tables & 250 chairs and set them up for a luncheon.  Afterwards, I tore them down.  So tonight I am a little sore & tired  but happy.  If this was a few months ago I would not have been able to do it.  The band is changing my life.

Eyes Were Bigger Than My Stomach
on April 10, 2010 5:26 pm
Last night we went out for dinner with friends.  Everyone thought that an all-you-can-eat buffet was a good idea so that everyone could find something that they liked.  We went and I ordered a water to drink.  But, when I went to dish up I ran into trouble.  My old ways showed up.  I took 1 chicken breast, broccoli, meatloaf, mashed potatoes , mac & cheese and a dinner roll.  Once I sat down, I took a long long at my plate and Thank God, I came to my senses.  I took the skin off the chicken and had a few bites. I cut the florets off the broccoli and ate them.  I had a small bite of the potatoes and the mac and cheese.  I took a small bite of the meatloaf.  The dinner roll went untouched.  My plate looked almost as full when I was done eating as when I sat down.

On the way home, my nephew commented on how proud he was of me for not eating all that food and how much more active I have become.  Maybe this third fill will get me under 300 lbs.
