Sylvia Adan - Patient Facilitator

  
Sylvia Adan

My name is Sylvia and I presently live in California, somehow I found myself at approx 350 lbs, a size 4 -5 x, and to this day I cannot tell you why I let my weight get that high. But I also knew (and this was the scariest part) that I would never be able to diet that weight off the normal way, and I had no clue what to do about it, I was desperate. Then the miracle came in, during my research I noticed that a lot of people were going to Mexico and paying for their own surgery as it was

so much less expensive, and most insurance companies in the US won't pay for it, so having found out that my insurance company wouldn't cover it.

So knowing my insurance company didn't cover it either, I found some chat sites and talked to at least three nurses that had their surgery done in Mexico (I was very nervous!) I figured they would know about the cleanliness and if
the surgery was being done correctly. They quickly assured me I had nothing to worry about and absolutely nothing to fear.

I cannot tell you how my life has changed since the surgery, and how much more confident I am. I always wore skirts, NEVER pants, not even to the mailbox, but now all I wear is jeans, that was a HUGE milestone, and now by being a Patient facilitator I can reach hundreds of people to tell them how totally worth while this procedure is, and to get them on the road to a better and healthier life. It doesn't get any better than that.

I LOVE MY BAND!!!

Sylvia,
Patient Facilitator.
