Muhammad Feteiha Everything I have to say concerning Dr.Feteiha is 100% positive.He is straight forward and explains everything step by step.Even though I knew much concerning the proceedure,he told me to start from scratch.HE also REQUIRES attending his seminar before your first visit with him,which is a great idea since you can learn a lot from him and the post-op speakers. I would like to publicly thank Dr. Feteiha and his staff for their courtesy,professionalism and patience. I also would like to give special thanks to Lourdes Zapatas, who handled my case from the seminar up to my surgery,she told me not to worry,that she would make sure everything would go smoothly, and it did.Thanks again.Funny that Jilda and Karmarie recognized my voice and made me feel like i was person and not a patient,thanks for your personal attention. I was on a first name basis with eveyone which made it that much more pleasant. I would reccomend Dr.FETEIHA and his staff to anyone . THANK YOU again,rn David

yesterday was my 2 year anniversary and I am glad grateful and proud to say that i have reached and surpassed my goals,i never thought i would be where i am at today,my life has changed dramatically,now i look at life differently, i want to dress better,dont mind running around etc ,but most of all i know i will be healthy enough to enjoy my family which means the world to me, when my dr. told me i was a prime candidate for a heart attack or stroke it brought me to reality . now i can play catch up for all that i missed,dam its gonna be fun.see you guys soon.
its been a minute or two since i've been on but i have been busy, not even gonna lie. me and the wife went down to atlantic city last weekend and did we have a great time, everything was perfect,from dinner to concert to drinks just spending time with the mrs. it felt sooo good getting into a size 40 sport jacket, 34 pants and med shirt,and of course having all the extra space in the seat at the concert.. yesterday i took a new driver on the roadand as we were moving the 600lb liq nitrogen cans around he says" yo, how does a guy as small as you move all that weight , youre size fooled me " . that hit me like a brick since i have never been referred to as a small guy. luckily it was a good brick and left me smiling, i just said "i wasnt always this size,it took a lot of work"
we went down to Ocean City MD for the weekend and had a great time. it was actuallystrange to go away for the weekend and not pack a carload of food. we just packed our clothes, a few bottles of Arbor Mist , and of course wifeys shoes and blow dryer. seriously it felt strange but GOOD. The most enlightening moment was when we decided to parasailing and DIDNT HAVE TOWORRY BOUT WEIGHT RESRTICTION. if youve never been parasailing, GO, it is so much fun and relaxing, dont worry bout the height ,because you wont realize it..the other moment was when i had to buy a trunks because i didnt fit mine, thye were and xl and i gotta brag ,i'm using large and some mediums.it feels good to be able to buy clothesat the boardwalk and not have to ask " do you carry big sizes". we stopped at Hoopers Crab House for dinner and boy did i tear up some crabs.,why go to ocean city if you aint gonna feast on crabs.
looks like hit my GOALLLLLLLL. weighed in and now officially under 165, i was floating between 165 and 167 which had me frustrated but now that i have weighed 164 for the past few days i guess i can say GOAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. i wnet to pick up a pair of dress slacks for a my wifes aunts funeral and actually had a hard time finding a size 34, which is the opposite of trying to find a size 48 or 50.I have even been able to fit some 33's if they are cut loose, it is an awseome feelin when i look back and realize how far i have come and just have a small distance to go.
my wife bought me two shirts on saturday but had to exchange them or a size that i haven't seen since the tenth grade, a size MEDIUM, its hard to believe that i have gone from a xxxl or xxxxl down to a medium. I thought that the brand was cut a lil large but was suprised when i tried on some tee shirts at OLD NAVY and themediums fit.. guess its time to accept the fact that i am lil david,just kidding,i will always be Big David, its strange how you start to look at your meals in a different way since you want to eat healthy and stay fit. . i do not deprive myself of food , what i do is watch my portions , which is what I should have done many years ago,but i guess we have to live and learn. being that i learned my lesson i will NOT make the mistake again.
my story is basically similar to everybody elses.I have either been chubby,husky ,big or for better terms ,big boned. my weight has fluctuated since i can remember.for the past years i have floated from 200 lbs to my top weight of 327,at 5'7" thats alot of weight.i never had any medical issue until a few years ago,diagnosed with HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE. that sent me on a diet and went down to 250 lbs. hung in there for about a year and then with in a year and a half i shot back up to 305 lbs. then i found out that i have sleep apnea and the numbers continued to worsen.i had already began the gastric by pass journey when i was told i MUST USE A CPAP. this was my final warning and i woke up to reality. i am only 43 years old and do not want my lovely wife to roll over and see me wearing a mask.she said i am being vain, but i got a very not so nice impression when i was fitted for my mask. i want to live to enjoy my wife of 18 years and my children.
