Accreditation, location & cost
At 33 years old I was a married unhappy mother of 3 with no energy or motivation for anything.
My friend started loosing weight and I honestly thought she was sick. I asked her what was going on and she stated she had the sleeve surgery.
I went home that night and told my then husband that I was ready to have weight lose surgery and the sleeve was what I wanted. Asked him to pick a clinic and I would go.
So 4 months later, I was on a plane to what would be the best decision of my adult life at OCC.
my surgery, recovery & subsequent weight loss, could not have gone any better.
The lowest weight I got to was 155lb. I have since gained 30 of those pounds back and I’d like to have a mommy makeover to get rid of the extra skin. And maybe I will in the future, but for now I’m happy with myself.
In the end that’s all you can ask for. Be kind to yourself. Don’t take in the negative treatment you are bound to experience from others. Do what is right for you.
