I was very skeptical about this surgery and more so the location when my friend told me about it. I refused to look into it thinking she was nuts, but once I saw the results I was all in. I'm only 5'1 and have fought my weight since I was 14. Even at my highschool graduation at 135 I was consider overweight. I was married a year later and had my first of 4 children a year after that. Needless to say the weight kept piling on. This May I weighed in at 178, this was achieved after a year of diet and exercise. The goal of 155 seemed impossible, so I gave in and scheduled the surgery. Today I am 9 weeks out and have passed my goal of 155 and weighed in at 153. I have lost 34.5 inches and fit in a 10 slim. It's crazy!!! I'm very glad I did it. It has changed my whole prespective on food. I didn't realize how much I ate and how I used it as a social expreciance. I can't wait to see my final results.
