Surgeon Testimonial

Robert Davis, M.D.
Dr. Davis is not only a brilliant surgeon, but he is a kind and funny man. He really does care about his patients. He is very strict about following the diet both pre-op and post-op. He completely outlined the risks of surgery and was more than willing to address my questions and concerns. He, and his incredible staff, made the entire process extremely easy. I am so glad I chose Dr. Robert Davis as my surgeon. I recommend him highly to anyone seeking bariatric surgery.

Montel Williams Show
on February 17, 2008 2:22 pm
Well, I just got back from taping for the Montel Williams Show. I flew to NY with my husband to be a guest on the Big Medicine segment of the Montel show. It was a lot of fun, but I am so nervous about it being aired. I said some things that I wouldn't normally say, because I was so nervous. I am also worried that "the after shots" of me will not look much different than my "before shots". I have lost 140 lbs, and I still can't see the weight loss. I hope that I am perceived well after people watch the show. Time will tell ....

My Story

So what is my story? Well I have been heavy all of my life. I think at around puberty, I started packing on the pounds. My weight eventually climbed to 354 lbs. I have a gorgeous GQ-looking husband that always accepted and loved me at any weight. I decided that I needed to lose weight 2 years ago when I held my son, Zachary, for the first time. I used to have the mentality that I am fat, and everyone has to die of something. After having my son, I realized how selfish that thinking was. I want to teach him to eat healthy, and get exercise. First, I needed to learn that myself. I had a RNY on September 4, 2007. My surgery was performed by Dr. Robert Davis, featured on TLC's BIG MEDICINE. I was honored when Dr. D asked me to tell my story for the show. 
It has been almost five months since my surgery, and I have lost 136 pounds. I feel incredible and never regret the decision to have the surgery.
