Surgeon Testimonial Muhammad A. Jawad, M.D. Unfortnately, Dr. Jawad was in surgery and therefore I did not get a chance to meet him. However, I did meet his staff and everyone from Roberto at the front desk with his phenomenal sense of humor to Sandra Denton what a hoot. Sandra Brown should have shared she had had the surgery too. She looks fantastic. rnrnDr. Jawad's group povided very detailed and meticulous information important to having the procedure. rnrnI felt extremely comfortable and at ease with everyone there. rnrnAlthough I was apprehensive about going through with this everyone I have spoken to that has had the procedure wished they would have done it sooner.rnrnI cannot wait to have all my paperwork submitted for approval.rn MsAlejandro's Journey Click Here To View Describe your behavioral and emotional battle with weight control before learning about bariatric surgery.

I always remember my mother telling me “Don’t ever go on a diet they will only making you gain weight” how right she was. I tried every single diet under the stars from hot dogs and ice cream, to lettuce and coffee. The funny one was 3 apples a day and 3 tablespoons of Peanut Butter – OMG that as so funny.

. However, this provided me with some more time to make sure this is what I want. I continue to monitor what I am eating and also drinking lots and lots of water (I am always thirsty - due to the in balance of my sugar levels). However, I lose 4 lbs and gain 3, I lose 3 pounds and gain 6 you can only imagine. I feel that once I stop taking all these pills I should be okay. In the meantime, I wait.
