Surgeon Testimonial

Earl Noyan, MD
my first impression was that he was wonderful.. He cared, he took the time you needed. He answered all your questions. He just made me feel comfortable about something i was very uncomfortable with. His staff was wonderful. I would definitly refer others to him. he made sure i knew what i was getting into and made me aware of all risks and benifits. I am really glad i chose Dr. Noyan as my surgeon!

My Story

Hi my name is shannon i have struggled w/ this weight all my life ad far back as i can remember...Two times in my life though i did loose alot of weight. When i just turned 18 i lost 85 lbs and went doen to 185 then got pregnant w/ first daughter and gained it all back every lb......Delivered her was very depressed and gained about 30 more. Well i guess i got over my depression and lost around 50 or so that i can remember and went down to 260 or so but ended up prego again was pregnant 6 months gained 50lbs but lost that baby (rest his soul my beautiful baby boy) then around 2004 i lost about 60-65 lbs again  and guess what  lol  i am sure u guessed it  yup i ended up knocked up again.. yes yes  i see the pattern..this time my husband will get fixed lol   wow  went up to 330  thats what i wieghed on the day i delivered. She was born june 17th 2005  on June 21St i started weight watchers  did wonderful that diet really works if i want it to...I lost another 65 lbs in 5 months but gained every drop back almost. I went up and down this past yr until surgery i weighed 318 on the day of surgery wich was dec 18th 2006. Hopefully by next yr december i will be in the 100s  like 175-190  id be estatic...... My goal is 175  but id take 190.....i just want to feel healthy look healthy and have more energy cause i could litterally sleep my life away and i dontl ike this feeling of grossness.....  But thats my life  on my weight issue anyway!! other than that i have a very sexy tone husband who loves me for me knw matter how i have looked. 2 beautiful daughters mikayla and mariah  4 and 1 and i love life even though it may not show all the time.
