Recommended Posts

I'm 23. I'm currently undergoing the 6 month pre req . For my insurance. Last Nutritionist appt we talked about late September early October for the surgery date. I'm afraid Im obsessed with thinking about it. I absolutely cannot wait to do this. Started medifast in Jan. 2012 lost 30 lbs gained 5lbs back. I'm 5'7, 319 was my starting weight I weighed in at 294 this past nut. Appt. wanting sleeve buddies to undergo this with. My mom is having sleeve done in July. but id like to hear how younger Sleevers are doin as well. Very curious ! I've been overweight my entire life and Im tired of living in this fat shell :D Thanks

Ive been hearing that mecico is actually not a bad place to have.surgery like all the stereotypes. I hope it works out for you. Hope this im not prying how much is ur self pay in mexico. The self pay option here (if my insurance denies me) i think is 12,500 with 150$/ month payments.
