Surgeon Testimonial

Constantine Frantzides, MD, PHD, FACS
One Year Ago - On November 23, 2010 Dr. Frantzides did my Laparoscopic RNY. I was 298 lb..Today I am 185 pounds. I lost the total of 113 pounds. I went from size 26W (pants) to 12 and 1X (shirts) to S.
My life before this surgery was going only in one direction - the grave. I was 29 years old and so severly obese that some nights I was scared to fall asleep. I was miserable and depressed and I felt like my life was going to hell.
Dr. Frantzides changed that. He gave me something no words can explain. He gave me this feeling of freedom and re-birth. I am a new person now, seriously. I have sooo much energy, so much motivation, my spirit is back, my smile, my thirst for life.
All of you people out there, that are sitting on the couches and dont know if surgery is the right way - dont hesitate. Dont waste time. Surgery is the right way, but only if you have the right Dr. and if you are reading this, you have found him. I am the living proof that he exists. Happy Holidays.

I Reached my Half....
posted on 4/12/10 9:10 am
Hello Guys,

Today is the day!!! This morning I weigh in at 224 and this is very important for me because it is half way to my goal. I began my journey at 298 and my goal is 150. So, for barely 5 months after surgery I have lost the total of 74 pounds and today I reached my half :)
I feel amazing - healthy and alive. And everyone around me tells me that I look great too and I am still in the 200's, so I cant even imagine how it is going to be once I reached my goal of 150...

Also, my BMI is finally under 40...On the day of my surgery it was 52.8...How amazing is that? I just love my new me...
