I really had always been the chunky kid in class. I wasn't what you would say over weight untill about 26 and had my son. Then over the last 14 yr. I just couldn't get under 200lb. no matter what I tried. I did it all. I would just gain it back,,and then more. Untill this last year I wasn't even 100lb. over weight. After I hit my highest weight and my Dr. wouldn't give me diet pills, I was really upset. I guess I was looking for an easy way to loose. Even though I knew I would end up gaining what I lost back. I spent this last spring with my dear younger brother who was fighting health problems. He ended up passing away in May, he was 26. Going through a very hard spring with his death, emotionally made my weight go up too. By summer I was needing a way to fight my depression and get a grip on my weight gain. After alot of resurch I started looking in to WLS. I was very dissapointed with the cost in the States. I don't have Ins. so this seemed like this wouldn't be a choice for me. After resurching Dr.s in Mexico, I found Dr. Joya and felt this was something I could afford, and he was an outstanding surgon. I had my surgery Aug. 14- 06. I couldn't be more happy with the outcome. I really feel like I'm getting back my health physically and emotionally. This had added years to my life. I would do It again in a heart beat.
