Two years today!!!

This has been the most incredible journey I have ever embarked on. I have lost over 130 lbs and feel as though I have been give back a life I long forgot about. This was truly the best gift I have ever given myself. I would do it all over again if I had to. My husband was so thrilled with the benefits I have experienced that he had the surgery in April of 2003. 5 months out he is down 120 lbs, and went off his diabetes, high blood pressure, gout, cholestrol meds within a month and and threw away the CPAP machine inside 2 months!!!!!! We are confident we have given ourselves a long future together with many adventures ahead of us.

Elizabeth & Hubby, Congrats to the both of you. I am also two years out today. I have lost about 130 pounds. I hope to keep losing some. And yes, it has given me a new lease on life. I can now enjoy my 2 young sons, whom, I could not do much with before my surgery. This truly is a life saving surgery. I am so blessed that God gave me the courage and my surgeon the knowledge to go ahead with this surgery. Debi H
