Surgeon Testimonial

Patrick Coates, M.D.
I met Dr. Coates at an informational seminar on 4/20/04 and loved how knowledgeable he was about the surgery. He easily answered questions and never had to second guess his answers. Due to his confidence I requested him as my surgeon when I saw my PCP to request the surgery. My surgery was on 8/3/04 and I had no complications at all. Dr. Coates did a wonderful job on me and I couldn't be happier with the surgery! I reccomend him to anyone who is interested in the surgery.

Describe your behavioral and emotional battle with weight control before learning about bariatric surgery.
Before learning about bariatric surgery I felt that I was destined to be fat. I had tried so many diets over the years that I had given up trying to keep track of them all. Eventually I adopted the mentality that nothing works so why try. All that did for me was put on more weight.

Ok....so life is moving in full swing.  I've managed to regain a few lbs since posting my goal entry...but that's ok...it's only 2 lb...I chuck it up to water...lol.

Alice's birthday was great...and since then she's started walking!  Oh my...now I've really got my hands full!

Then on to my birthday!  What a blast!  I celebrated with a new tattoo...in honor of my darling little girl.  I chose the Larkspur flower...her birth month flower.  I have 2 blossoms each with 5 petals for a total of 10 petals...one petal for each year I dreamed of being a mom.
