Cynthia, I am amazed at the before and after pics you just posted. I must congratulate you on your transformation. Oprah should be ashamed of herself not having our AMOS people on her show. You are a good example of the wonders of this surgery and could tell her how this is not the easy way.

Hello to all of the Big and Beautiful Women and men of the world. Well those of you that have started to lose all of that weight "MORE POWER TO YOU" I am Jetton Hughes..Cynthia Hughes daughter. She has had her Surgery and it was a big success. She went into the hospital at 5:00a and the Surgery started at 8:45a and ended at 12p. Doctor Hashmi was going to do the Laptiscoptic procedure but turns out had to cut her open. She has 3 incisions. 1&2 was when they were going to do it with the scope but had to switch to the other alternative the KNIFE. So there is where the largest cut #3 and there was another cut in which where Dr. Hashmi had to put a drainage tube down into her stomach...you know to drain all access fluids so it would not interfere with the healing process of that lovely stomach. My mother has already lost 2.3lbs and is on to FINEDOM!!! She is a beautiful woman already but LOOOOORD when she starts shedding those pounds Ooooh this world had better look out!! I'm so pleased to say that after she had the Surgery and she was in the recovery room about 2 hours later she asked if she could stand up and stretch her muscles. Man after that every day about 3 to 10 times a day she is up and walking all down the hospital hall. I'm so proud of her...so proud!!! Well Dr. Hashmi may release her Friday 11, 2001 to come home; but we don't know yet. Me and my brother has been up there at least 3 to 4 times a day for about 2 to 3 hours spending time with her and making sure things are going good. Well you know thanks for being there and saying your prayers everyone because I do know that one day at a time each person who is not happy because of their weight will find a resolution and that resolution will change their lives forever... God bless Jetton
