Our bariatric journey wasn’t a quick decision—it came after years of trying, failing, and starting over. We were tired of feeling stuck and knew we wanted more out of life.

In January 2026, we chose to have bariatric surgery in Mexico with Dr. Jose Rodriguez Villarreal at BeLiteWeight. It was a big decision and definitely came with fears, but having the right team and doing it together made all the difference.

We leaned on each other every step of the way. From the moment we arrived, we felt cared for. The hospital was clean, safe, and state-of-the-art, and the care we received helped ease our worries and made us feel confident in our decision.

Since surgery, we’ve lost a combined total of over 100 pounds—but we’ve gained so much more: energy, confidence, and a stronger relationship.

This wasn’t the easy way out—it was the tool that helped us take our lives back.
