Surgeon Testimonial

Drake Bellanger, M.D.
Dr. Bellanger is very nice. He is mild mannered and kind. He is a soft spoken but is very willing to answer any and all questions you have. His staff has been great. They are very friendly and will answer all your questions honestly and were very helpful. The hospital staff even bragged on Dr. Bellanger and assured me I was in good hands. I would highly recommend him to others.

Wow 6 months out already!!  Since I started my journey on 6/1/09 I am down 109lbs.  I still have 14 to go....but pretty good so far.  This has been the most awesome journey.  I feel so much better about myself.  It makes my day when my husband tells me how great I look!!!  I do  have to laugh when people say "you must feel so much better?"  I hate to say it but I didn't feel that bad at 263!!  I wish maybe I had and I would have done this a lot sooner.  I am very thankful to have a very supportive husband, children and best friend.  It would be hard to do this without them.  All of my friends have been great, I am so thankful!

My Story

I am a 36 year old married mother of 3.  I have struggled with my weight all of my adult life.  As of June 2008 I had reached my highest weight of 263.  I had been wanting to have the VSG but just had to bite the bullet and go for it.  I dieted (with the help  of diet pills !!) until October and got down to 227 the day of my surgery 10/20/09.  It is now January 1 and I weigh 179!!  I am 5'7" and my goal is 140.  I hope to reach my goal by the end of April.
