Nora L. - Gastric Bypass Success Story
I was a fat, lazy mother and wife. I was becoming that dreaded fat woman who sits in her chair yelling at her kids. I was tired all the time and my body had aches everywhere. I had become so disgusted with my appearance that I didn't like to have pictures taken even with my beautiful kids.
Making the Decision
I had been looking into surgery for about five years. I could lose weight, but not keep it off.Then I would gain more than I had lost. I was borderline diabetic, and then they found a heart defect during my third pregnancy. My husband had never been on board about the surgery and I was not willing to do it without his blessing. After much prayer and gaining and losing 400lbs during a ten-year time frame my prayers were answered. My husband told me to go for it. He knew I was doing myself more harm than good and we had three girls to think about.
My Barix Clinics Experience
Everything fell into place perfectly. Every person I spoke with was extremely patient and kind. Several people had had the surgery themselves, which was wonderful. The doctor was fantastic, and so was the rest of the hospital staff. Everyone made me feel like they were there for me and wanted me to succeed.
How My Life Has Changed
A little over a year later and I am down 124 pounds*. My feet and my knees don't hurt. My back doesn't hurt. I can carry around any of my three children. I can run with my two year old. I can crawl around and bend and twist in ways I never thought would be possible. My girls are surprised at the things I can do right along with them. My husband hugs me and can't believe the difference. My girls can wrap their arms around me. There are just too many “I cans” to list!!!!
