I had my sleeve done by Dr Aceves in Mexicali two years ago today! I lost 84 lbs in 8 months and I have maintained my goal weight since then! I love buying cute clothes now and not worrying about being thought of negatively because of chubbiness. There is a lot if discrimination towards heavy people in this world...
I feel great and I will be forever grateful for my sleeve!

That is amazing!! And you are right... there is too much discrimination against heavy people... even in the name of "health". You feel it when you're heavy but once the weight is off, you see just how bad it really was. 

Congrats on doing so well!

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!

Congrats! I'm just a few months ahead of you (surgery May 2011).  I love seeing other vets at goal and staying there. Knowing someone else can do it gives me confidence I can too.
