3 MONTHS POST OP
I HAD SURGERY BY DR. AGUIRRE MAY 31ST.
TUESDAY WAS MY 3 MONTH ANNIVERSARY. HARD TO BELIEVE ITS BEEN THAT LONG ALREADY. STILL SEEMS LIKE JUST A FEW DAYS AGO. TIME FLYS BY SO FAST.
I HAVE NOW LOST 58 POUNDS.
AND 7 INCHES OFF MY WAIST AND 6 INCHES OFF MY HIPS.
I AM NOW WEARING SIZE 22 JEANS AND ALMOST INTO SIZE 20S. I STARTED AT SIZE 28 JEANS AND THEY WERE TO TIGHT.
I WANT TO LOSE ABOUT 160 POUNDS. STARTING AT 309. THIS WILL PUT ME AT ABOUT 150. SO IVE LOST ABOUT 36% OF MY TOTAL GOAL.
I HAVE BEEN GETTING MORE COMPLIMENTS FROM PEOPLE AT WORK. EVEN PEOPLE WHO WOULD NEVER TALK TO ME BEFORE ARE NOW COMING UP TO ME AND TALKING.
I HAVE MORE ENERGY ALREADY. I CAN NOW CLEAN MY HOUSE WITHOUT BREAKING A SWEAT SORTING THE LAUNDERY. I CAN TIE MY OWN SHOES. I CAN GET READY FOR WORK WITHOUT HAVING TO TAKE A BREAK. I NO LONGER USE MY SLEEP APNEA MACHINE. AND MY LOVE LIFE WITH MY HUSBAND IS SO MUCH BETTER.
SOME HAVE ASKED ME IF I WOULD DO IT ALL OVER AGAIN WOULD I STILL GO TO MEXICO AND AM I HAPPY. MY ANSWER IS A DEFINATE YES.
I AM HAPPY WITH THE OUTCOME. I HAD WONDERFUL CARE FROM DR. AGUIRRE AND HIS STAFF. AND MY RECOVERY AND LIFE AFTER WLS HAS BEEN FAR MORE EASIER THAN I HAD ANTISIPATED. I NOT SAYING THAT IT IS ALWAYS EASY. JUST SAYING IT IS FAR BETTER THAN I THAUGHT IT WOULD BE. THIS IS THE BEST THING I HAVE DONE FOR MYSELF.

Cindy, sounds like you are doing awesome. I know that going to Mexico was my only option and I am glad I did. I have mine done with Dr. Joya in PV Mexico, but going to Mexico I think was a blessing. Like you, my care was great and I would do this over 100x plus, even though I am only 17 days out. Congrats on your loss and I hope that I am as successful as you are!!! Jen
