Today is my birthday and my first official day home post-op. I had my surgery done by Dr. Almanza in TJ, MX on 3-26. This was the best decision that I've made for myself in a very long time...I was treated with the uttermost respect and dignity. My surgery, safety and recovery was all highly valued..If you are considering Dr. A, you will be in great hands!!!
Much Success..

I am 29 yrs. old and I will be turning 30 on 3-30-10...For the past 10 yrs. I have set goals to loss weight for my b-day and every year, I fall into the same yo-yo spiral...Up and Down...Lose 20 gain 25-30...I am sooo tired!!!
I was denied Lap-Band surgery by my insurance after going through all the pre-op exams, pych evals and diets so I went into a major depression and lost hope....I started looking on-line and found that I can go to MX and have my dream surgery at a fair and reasonable cost....I was all in!!! This is my final chance to change my life permanetly...
I am 5'7 at 230lbs and my Husband does not want me to get this surgery especially not in MX..He thinks Im crazy and He does NOT support me....Help!!! I need support from those of you that have been to TJ Mexico and have had your surgery done with Dr. Almanza-Reyes...Pleeeease Help Me....
