Thank you so much Lori you are so much help

Lori, I loved reading your blog, I am really considering getting the Gastric Sleeve I am at the point in my life when everything is coming together I am about to graduate college, my boyfriend and I are talking about marriage. Everything is going great except my weight I have always be very heavy and very unhappy. I believe that this surgery could change my life, change how I look at my life. I love reading everyone's blog and reading about their success it gives me hope, and courage to get the surgery. But I have talked to my family and my boyfriend they are against me getting the surgery and it doesn't help that they don't want to me to travel to Mexico. But I have done my research on Dr. Ortiz and I feel very confident in him and the OCC. The only thing that is holding me back from scheduling the surgery is my family. So I can say that I am in a pickle. Mishell

Hi I am really considering the Gastric Sleeve. I am 22 and my weight is 315 I am well aware that it is unhealthy to be this much overweight. But I am a little afraid that about having the surgery in mexico. I am also afraid that something will go wrong with the during the sugery and I am afraid that there might be complications with the sleeve. Are these concerns normal. I really want to have the surgery because I want to live a happy healthy life and I have so much that I want to do. If there is anyone who could help me ease my concern and help me make up my mind I would appriciate it. Thank you so much!! Mishell
