Surgeon Testimonial

Gregory Walton, M.D.
My first question to Dr. Walton was how soon I would be able to model for the Abercrombie and Fitch catalog... Once he actually realized I wasn't serious, we had a great conversation. rnDr. Walton was generous with his time, visited with my family before and after surgery, and just generally makes you feel good about your decision. rnrnDr. Walton truly cares about his patients. He said from the beginning that surgery is not a great option, but it is the best option we have for beating obesity. I am carrying around contact information now that will allow me to reach Dr. Walton any time I need him.rnrnI believe I made the best possible choice in surgeons.

For the first time in my life....
on November 17, 2008 4:57 pm
One of the guys at my office let his driver's license expire and was trying to get it back today.  Of course, that prompted everyone in the building to check their own license to make sure it hadn't expired.... when I looked at mine, I realized that for the first time ever, my license has a weight HIGHER than my actual weight.  My license says 245 and my scale said 243 this morning...unbelievable.  I remember getting my first license and telling the lady 235 for my weight - it was a lie then and I certainly didn't lose below that in the last ?? years.

Unbelievable the changes that come along with this journey!
