Surgeon Testimonial

Michael H. Wood M.D.
From Detroit, Michigan I Did a 1 1/2 year research on Dr. Micheal H. Wood,with over 25 years of surgical experience,and a extensive back ground in weight loss surgery. I than met Dr. Wood he is great.rnthe staff was very friendly, kind concerned and most of all ( professional).rnhe has done over (4) thousands gastric surgeries, and he is the co-founder of the Sapala-Wood Micropouch.All of his surgeries are performed at Harper University Hospital.which is a Center of Excellence, they also have a whole floor dedicated to GBS.rnhe emphaizes very much on aftercare its not just a tool to help lose weight but turning your health around living longer.Changing your life style is a must your mental thinking plays a major part, the best being able to get off some medications if not (all) completely.rnthey are both great. I give Dr. Wood and Dr. Taylor 110. there is nothing negative I can say or have found. go to MyABMI.COM search the two surgeons out.

Hey My Family It has been a very long time since I have been on here, walter is doing the typing for me.
since the last time I was on here I havehad four strokes back to back on the left side of my brain, which made my right side very weak even my speech is so bad no one can understand me. and yes it at times makes me cry.
I'm not giving up nor giving out I am holding on to Gods word, his promise he made to me.

now they want me to wait 6 more months before my t.t. and my lower body lift which I do understand, but man it seems harded carrying around all this extra skin keeps getting in the way flopping here flopping there you know what I mean, rashes man I hate this.

just keep me in your prayers don't forget me I will be back in full swing soon with pictures love you all keep on making your goals. God bless

I am sooooo happy to see and read of so many of my sisters and brothers of OH is doing well even when they hit a stall you battle it out you don't stop you keep on running, Praise God.
this day and forever more watch what we say? why because you can have what you say, speak good even when bad is seen, don't give room to the devil. speak those things that are not as though they were. we are all pushing hard not just on wls but life its self, at our worst state so we think allow GOD to be and show you (his) Best!!!!!
I love you guys everyone of you. its yours for the asking.
I decree a blessing upon each and everyone of you in Jesus name. remember I need you and you need me, someone believes in you, and that someone is me.
Love ya.

well I am asking everyone to pray for us, we would like to adopt these two boys we have, which are brothers. ones 11 years old and the other is three years old, pray with us and for us that all goes well.

for me all is well, since so much weight lose I feel better, more active I can hang with the kids and tuck them out, but I have noticed that I do tired out fast I am taking all vits cal and protein right even eat when I'm hungry and if I'm not I will make sure I drink my protein.

well after all these years my DH and I said we will stop for a couple of years to get a break. raise our kids get us back in order. sorry for not being around sooner but I am here.
yes Mrs. LAZY will put the pictures up ha ha ha, you know I mean well.
God bless you all.
