I first became interested in Gastric Sleeve a few years ago and even though I was interested I wasn't able to afford it and it wasn't covered by my insurance. I started looking into having it done in Mexico and people were really negative and so I put it on hold.
Flash forward two years and about 40 additional pounds, my dad and step-mom have had the sleeve here in the United States and have been wildly successful and I'm super jealous. Finally my dad is on board with going to Mexico, I've got financing, and scheduled the surgery.
I'm not nervous at all, I'm just excited and ready to work hard and get all this weight off. I know that it won't be easy, it'll be crazy hard work, with healthy eating and working out.
