surgery done in Syria

[lebyvr 0]

I did a lot of research and I finally decided to go to syria to have the surgery there. I took that decision because of many reasons:

1 : a friend of mine had been sleeved there and she recommended the dr.

2: I am originally from Lebanon so a family member can accompany me as lebanon is few hours drive away.

3: I speak the language "arabic"

4: 4000$ is the price, including a private room with two beds ,tv fridge......excluding ticket which costed me 1200 $ cad from vancouver canada.

anyway , I was sleeved on Dec 5th,2009 ,I weighed then 355lbs

today is Dec 22nd,2009 and I was 223lbs which means 32 lbs lost in approx 2 weeks and few days. not bad eh.

I threw up once when I decided to add cheese to my Soup , what Was I thinking lol

I am having delicious soups(mashroum,chicken broth, asparagus, cream of broccli), yougart, Protein Shakes and juices and taking Vitamin pills (centrum) and still taking some pills the dr prescriped.

I am so glad I did it and would like to thank many members here who helped me with information to make my decision and get the courage to do it.

good luck all :thumbup:
