Andrea: Feeling healthy, strong, alive, and confident

Before weight loss surgery, Andrea disliked how she looked and felt, battling low energy, joint pain, headaches, and frustration when finding clothes. Now, after weight loss surgery, Andrea feels “healthy, strong, alive, and confident!!”

James: A Journey to a New Life

At 341 pounds, James was on five daily medications for blood pressure and heart issues. For years, he considered surgery but always hesitated. A turning point came when his 3-year-old granddaughter unknowingly made him realize he wanted to be there for her future.

Since having surgery, James has lost over 100 pounds and regained his energy. “The best decision I’ve ever made,” he says. Now, he’s active, playing sports, and no longer constantly exhausted.

Johanna: “The best thing in the world…”

Before surgery, Johanna was experiencing heart problems and emotional distress due to obesity. Lacking money and struggling to decide, she finally chose surgery when her health problems worsened. “It has been the best thing in the world.” Now, Johanna says, “My life is unique; now I can do the things I couldn’t before. I want to go out, get dressed up, fix myself up, everything!”

Desiree: “I love getting dressed and feeling safe and happy.”

Before surgery, Desiree described her life as frustrating, painful, and shameful. “I couldn’t sleep well; I had a lot of knee and back pain; nothing fit me well. I felt unpleasant.” Now, she says, “My sleeping is excellent. I love getting dressed and feeling safe and happy. I see that practically everything bad is gone. My pains, everything is gone.”

Andrew: Reclaiming life’s simple pleasures after losing 272 lbs

Before weight loss surgery, Andrew’s weight limited nearly every aspect of his life, from mobility and clothing choices to seating and venues. He also suffered from high blood pressure, sleep apnea, and COPD. Now, Andrew can play with his daughter, visit parks, farmers markets, beaches, and theme parks, cycle outdoors, and go to the gym.
