Got my Gastric Band Jan 23

[boccomio 0]

I got my band done Jan 23, 2011, i when to Hospital Angeles in Tijuana, Mexico and all i can said the place is unbelievable clean, upscale, nice, safe, modern and all the above. I havent visit many hospital like that in Los Angeles. About the service and caring was the best i ever had at any hospital. I cant even explained how well i was treated and care for in Mexico.

The Hospital is only 5mins once you cross the San Diego border. The reason why i choose that place is because my insurance collapse and i didnt have any coverage and everyplace i called was charging 15k+ Just too much for me. In Mexico i pay 5k and didnt have to get a loan at a interested of 13% like i was talk about in Los Angeles.

I am back home after surgery and feeling good. I am excited about this new lifestyle.

weight 200lbs

Heights 5'5

I am aiming to lose 70 lbs. i had try everything in the past and tired of diets and starving myself. The highest i ever weighted was 215. I dont want to go back there.

Doctor said it will take about 8/9 months for me to lose all my desired weight. I am very happy about the decision i made.

Who was your doctor? I know Dr. Kuri operates out of Angeles Hospital but charges $6500. 5K sounds a lot better. Hope all is well.
