  1. This is my journey so far.Keep tuned in to see how my surgery on July 11th 2015 goes! I Love OCC Dr Ariel Ortiz And Dr Salvador Medina many many thanks for changing my entire life!
  2. I had the belt-lipectomy on Aug 2nd 2014 with Dr Medina. He is the greatest, im still in the compression garment and hope to get the drains out soon, virtually no pain ( I also was very intimidated by al the online blogs about this procedure and had top watching "Botched" on cable or I may have changed my mind. But He is an excellent surgeon and the nurses Jazmin and Lily took very good care of me as well as the on call Dr whose name is Dr Limon.Im considering returning in about 8-12 months for a breast augmentation, lift , inner thigh lift and possible the upper arm lift.DR Medina was very precise in getting everything symmetrical and I would like him to do my next surgery so I hope he is still at the clinic whe I return. I got the gastric sleeve on Aug 2 2013 and my beginning weight at scheduling was 208, when I arrived for surgery it was 195 and now I fluctuate between 125 and 133 more or less. I have absolutely zero fat (I had also wanted the fat transfer to my derriere but I'll be happy with the no fat:) Please check out my pics , I will update in about a month or so.If you have any questions either ask here or send me a private message. Good Luck Everyone!PS I haven't drank alcohol since May of 2013 and I stick to the guidelines .As I want the best results possible. Remember if you Cheat you are only cheating yourself.
  3. Im having a belt-lipectomy on Aug 2nd 2014, if all goes well , I will get a breast augmentation and inner thigh lift in 6-8 months. Getting the gastric sleeve was the best decision I couldve made. I went from a size 20-22 to a size 3-4 and am very comfortable with drinking over 8 glasses of water and eating 4-5 small meals a day.I no longer have diabetes or high blood pressure and all my blood tests are normal.Looking forward to next Saturday.
  4. I had gastric sleeve surgery last Aug 2 and to date have lost 83 lbs. from 208 to 125 im 5'3" bmi 23 size 3/4 pants and mostly small shirts. and .I have followed the instructions to the letter and it takes about 2-3 mos for the swelling and your stomach to heal. There were times i hit a plateau but that didnt last for long. Im currently scheduled for a belt-lipectomy (lower body lift) for all the excess skin (never used spanx til after my surgery! at The Ariel Center on Aug 2, 2014 and then just one more surgery next year for a breast Augmentation and lift and inner thigh lift. Im so excited .I have complete trust in the Drs and staff at the OCC and The Ariel center and have never felt better in my life. I no longer have diabetes or high blood pressure and all my blood work cholesterol etc is completely normal. I Can only exercise in Pool or bicycling as i hav 3 types of arthritis and carpal tunnel in both wrists and hands but Im working on it.I would recommend this clinic to anyone seeking a professional and excellent team of Drs and Nurses down to the receptionist. They are awesome. I have managed to keep the weight off and only go between 5 lbs up and down but im sure one i have the next surgery i should lose some of the weight as i have alot of loose extra skin!Im available to answer any questions that I can , just message me here. Check out my profile getting ready to post some new pics taken in May and June of this year.Good luck to all ! It's the best decision I ever made!!
