vario us provisions included within Rule 11 of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure. Because he did not object to any alleged Rule 11 violations at the rearraignment proceedings, we review for plain error only

. See Puckett v. United States , 556 U.S. 129, 13 5 (2009); United States v. Dominguez Benitez , 542 U.S. 74, 83 (2004). Romero has not shown a reasonable probability that he would not have pleaded guilty but for the alleged deficiencies in the Rule 11 colloquy. See Dominguez Benitez , 542 U.S. at 83. Ad ditionally, Romero maintains that the imposition of consecutive sentences for the instant offense and for the supervised release revocation was procedurally and substantively unreasonable. Although his notice of appeal included the case number for only th e instant illegal reentry case, he did seek to appeal “the sentencing conducted on June 13, 2013.” The sentences were imposed after a joint hearing on both his illegal reentry case and his revocation proceedings. We liberally construe his notice of appeal and address the challenges Romero raises to the consecutive nature of the sentences. See United States v. Knowles , 29 F.3d 947, 949 (5th Cir. 1994). Romero contends that the district court failed to give adequ ate reasons for the aggregate 52

- month sentence imposed and failed to consider factors that would warrant a lower sentence. Because he did not raise objections to the se alleged procedural errors in the district court , we review the arguments for plain err or. United States v. Mondragon

- Santiago , 564 F.3d 357, 360 (5th Cir. 2009). The record reflects that the district court provided reasons for the sentence relating to the factors set forth in 18 U.S.C. § 3553(a). Cf. Gall v. United States , 552 U.S. 38, 5 1 (2007) (listing a failure to consider the § 3553(a) factors as a possible procedural error ) . Although the district court did not cite to every factor listed in the statute, it was not required to do so. See Rita v. United State s , 551 U.S. 338, 356 (200 7). Moreover, Romero has not shown that

- 40695 any additional explanation would have resulted in his receiving a lower sentence. See Mondragon

- Santiago , 564 F.3d at 364

- 65. The brief submitted by Romero may also be read as challenging the substantive reasonabl eness of his sentence s . See Gall , 552 U.S. at 5 1. His failure to object on grounds of substantive unreasonableness triggers plain error review. See United States v. Peltier , 505 F.3d 389, 391

- 92 (5th Cir. 2007). We have rejected the argument that a gui delines sentence under U.S.S.G. § 2L1.2 is unreasonable because the Guidelines double

- count a defendant’s criminal history. See United States v. Duarte , 569 F.3d 528, 529

- 31 (5th Cir. 2009). Romero’s general disagreement with the propriety of his sentenc e and the district court’s weighing of the § 3553(a) factors is insufficient to rebut the presumption of reasonableness that attaches to within

- guidelines sentence s . See United States v. Cooks , 589 F.3d 173, 186 (5th Cir. 2009); United States v. Gomez

- Her rera , 523 F.3d 554, 565

- 66 (5th Cir. 2008). Romero has not demonstrated that the district court erred, much less plainly erred, by sentencing him to within

- guidelines consecutive sentence s of 37 and 15 months in prison. See Gall , 552 U.S. at 51; Peltier , 505 F.3d at 391

- 92. Consequently, the judgment of the district court is AFFIRMED.
