After letting myself go and reach upwards of 550lbs i realuzed in order to make a living and function I had to do something! My girlfriend at the time, who's now my wife, had had surgery in 2018 with Dr A. She was adamant it was life changing! So December 7 2020 I flew to Mexico and started this amazing journey! I had gotten down to 454 the day of my surgery but honestly was too big to weigh on scales and last official weight in June was 550lbs and thats because i topped out the scales. I am currently at 272! Total pre-op and after surgery is approx 300 lbs! I am physically able to do things i haven't done in years! Weighing less than i did in high school! I won't lie the journey was hard the first month or so but once I got used to the new routine it got easier. I love my new life! And having someone that has gone through the surgery as my life partner makes it all the better! Neither of us would change a thing! Thanks for everything Dr A!
