I Have Struggled With Being Over Weight Most Of My Adult Life.I Have Tried All Kinds Of Diets,All Of Which Only Worked  Temporaily Then The Weight Just Came Back On Plus A Few Pounds More. My Health Was'nt Good Either...I Had Difficulty Breathing,I Had Hypertension That Required Medication,Acid Reflux,And Restless Leg Syndrome.
I Could'nt Keep Up With Friends And Family...They Were Able To Walk,Run,and Play,But I Never Could.I Always Sat On Benches Trying To Catch My Breath.I Finally Decided I Needed Help.This Way Of Life,Was Slowly Going To Kill Me. My Family Doctor Was Very Helpful In Helping Me When I Asked About Getting Weight Loss Surgery. I Did Research Online,Went To Support Groups,Seen The Dietician And Did All The Required Testing Before I Made The Decision On What Type Of Surgery Would Be Best For Me. I Chose Gastric Bypass. My Surgery Was On October 13,2009...It Changed My Life! Now Almost A Year And A Half After My Surgery I Lost 135 Pounds. I Feel FANTASTIC!!! I'm Off ALL my Prescription Medications And My Health Problems Have Gone Away. I Feel Brand New And I'm So Much Happier In My New Life. I Can Never Thank Dr. McBean Enough For Helping Me Lose The Weight I Needed To Lose To Be Healthy Again.  :)
