I have been overweight all my life and it has been an up and down battle for me. I have always wanted to have weight loss surgery because I know it is the only way I will achieve my goal weight but it was never within my reach. Now at age 48 I realized that the only way it will be within my reach is if I do this for me and make it happen no matter what I had to do. Yes, it was scary leaving my country and going into another country to have the surgery but I needed to do it. Now it is over and I am starting my new journey to health and happiness. I will achieve my goal now. Thank you Dr. Lopez and A Lighter Me!
