Hello,

I just received approval for sleeve surgery and plan to travel to Mexico Feb 18th for surgery. I'm wondering if anyone would like to share their success stories/pictures. Anyone with similar weight/height? How long did it take you to reach your goal weight?

I'm 5'5 and 230 pounds.

Yep Mexico.

How was your recovery? I have a 2 month old and a 2 year old (25 months), is it hard to get around and do things after?

I was 5'2 and 237 pounds. I hit my goal of 129 in 18 months and have maintained it for 9 months. Even though we are sort of similar, everyone loses differently. I saw people with the same stats as me blow past me initially, while others were much slower than me. In the end, some from both groups hit goal and stayed there, some hit goal and regained, and some never hit goal. Moral of the story- the only person in this particular race is you. :)

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
