Hello everyone Im a 24 yr old female i live in Tennessee i have been researching the wls for over 4 years now. I started out with tennCare as my provider, after being on a wait list for 2 yrs i finally got a call back, i went through all the steps for getting approved for surgery..less than 1 yr later i found out that my coverage had ended and i could no longer get surgery with teencare.. I then started going from job to job trying to see who would cover the surgery. I finally stop trying insurance companies and stayed with my current job.. I then started researching online for low cost out ofpocket surgery.. One day out the blue i got a call from a nice lady  with dr. alberto aceves office who told me about their doctor, and lots of great resources for detailed info on the surgeon. dr.aceves is in mexico.. from everything i heard and read he is a great doctor. i am now schedule to have surgery with him on 02/05/2010. I am so ready to have surgery. I love fashion and its so many cute little small things i want to wear. In just a few months i will be on my way to getting the gastric sleeve. Im so ready for a happier and healthier life..
