Surgeon Testimonial

Timothy V. Chavis, M.D.
I met with Dr. Chavis and I was very impressed with him. He seems to be a caring doctor and he answered my questions truthfully. I have heard wonderful things about him anyway and I was told by one of his gastric bypass patient that he had wonderful bedside manners and he made sure that you are treated with the up most respect while in the hospital.

Hello OH family!
on July 22, 2009 6:39 am
Hello Oh family. OMG!!!!!!!! I have been gone for a minute. Hope everyone is doing well. I've been very blessed thus far. I'm still a work in progress but over all i'm so proud of what i have accomplished. I'm still stuck around 210-215. I've come to terms that i will probably stay in this area because i have been trying to get under 200 and i just can't. I'm still rocking my 14's and 16's but hey i'm happy. I have a shape now. I have people just commenting on me all the time. I'm 39 and i have people telling me that i look so much younger. I love being able to go in the stores and pick up a normal size. Now i sometimes still go to the woman's section but  i usually have to get a 14W but that beats having to buy a 28 or 30W. I can buy cute shoes now. I wear a 9 or 9 1/2 medium as to before the surgery i was wearing 10 1/2's or 11's wide on top of that and there are no cute shoes in those sizes.lol... so i have come along way. I thank God for my success and i'm going to continue to try and get under 200 but if i don't , then so be it. Now my only problem that i do have is all the loose skin. It drives me crazy. Even with me wearing a body suit it still hangs especially my back fat as i call it. So i'm really considering having something done about the skin. It's pretty bad to me anyway.lol... My arms, legs, stomach , breasts(which before surgery i was a 52DD now i'm a 42 or 44D). I just want them things lifted or something i want to keep the size though.lol...  Well oh family i just wanted to say hello and that i haven't forgot about you. I have posted a couple of new pics so check it out. You all have a wonderful day and keep working your tools. I promise to do better on here. Before surgery i would read people's success stories and then i would wonder why they wouldn't keep up on  their journeys. Sad to say now i'm one of those people but i am going to do better. I miss talking to alot of my oh friends. Take care and be blessed.
