Hi my name is Lily and I'm 43yo mother of 3 that has struggled with my weight all my life.  Like most of you I have let the life of raising kids, making a home and working a full time and at times a part time job get in the way of my health.  When I started my journey I was at 340 pounds at 5'4 and carried it mostly in the belly.  I suffered from chronic back and knee pain.  But no more.  At week 3 post op I am almost down 37 pounds.  My only regret is that I didn't do it sooner.  Dr Velasquez and the staff took such amazing care of me I was in awe! They have changed my life for the better.
