Y’all today I woke up realizing I been on my weight journey since March of 2022. That when I decided I was going to go forward with Bariatric surgery. I wanted to get help with jump starting the process. I went through working with a nutritionist, weight management specialist, weight loss classes, psych Valuation. Once all everything was done, it was time to sit down with my surgeon to see which Bariatric surgery was fit for me to keep losing weight and not gain it back. I went with doing a“Gastric Sleeve and duodenum switch. So with any weight loss program you have to lose 2-5% of your weight. So my weight started at 370lbs in March of 2022 and on January 24th 2023 I walked in on my surgery day weighing 313lbs. Y’all let me tell you when I got on that scale and saw I lost 48lbs my insides was jumping with joy. I knew after this surgery my lifestyle was going to change for the better of health. Because being hypertension, diabetes , asthma, and being prom to get blood clots. I needed to change my health because I didn’t want to live my life like that. I was amazed after surgery that my doctor told me I can stop taking blood pressure medication and I wasn’t diabetic anymore. I was doing the happy dance in his office!! It’s been 2.5 years and about to be 3yrs on January 24th since my surgery. I have lost a total of 135lbs and I’m not finished yet!! I became a certified personal trainer to help people like myself get healthy and enjoy changing their lifestyle for better.
