Date of surgery
Mary,
Hi! Yes I had my surgery in Wausau with Dr. Weiland from surgical associates; I had it Dec 3, 2003 and things are going good; I have lost 160lbs and feel so different, I to have been large my whole life, I am now 40 and feel like i could whip the world. I had no problems from the surgery and no complications at all, it is a new life change that is for sure but well worth it I believe I would do it again in a heartbeat. I have a long way to go yet seeing I was over 450lbs before surgery, and have major back problems I used to have to walk with a cane and sit in a wheelchair; those days are long gone I am out and about and doing; good. I think the year after is the hardest not to fall back into old eating habits, its so easy to do.......and exercise even the littlest of things is so so important. Well I wish you all the luck in the world and hope all goes the way you want. Diana (Tomahawk)
