Healthier Living 0 Posted December 6, 2012 MGM how was your experience I was just on Dr Alvarez website Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MGM 140 Posted December 6, 2012 I went to dr Kelly but have read a lot of good about dr Alvarez too. I didn't feel unsafe, my 19 yo son went with me and I'm glad I did it. No regrets. I'm losing slower than average due to health history, but IM LOSING! 250 day if surgery 213 now. 265 before preop diet. It has its hard times, but if you are emotionally ready, it's sooo worth it!

Healthier Living 0 Posted December 6, 2012 I've read so many good reviews about Alverez and I'm considering. So how was ur trip back on the plane? Where did u have to catch to plane to and was it expensive? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MGM 140 Posted December 6, 2012 It was less than $500 round trip. I flew to I think Dallas first than San Diego. Flight home was on...considering my flight back to New Orleans got cancelled because of hurricane Isaac. I did get to fly into Biloxi and my sis came and picked me up. Take a couple fixes if dissolving gas x. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm one month out and have lost 30# since surgery another 30 prior to. I feel great about to start going to the gym. I just walk and play basketball as my exercise now.
