Testimonial
I was an overweight kid from the 4th grade through 8th grade. I was made fun of like most overweight people. When I entered high school I had lost weight and stayed thin until 2 years after my daughter was born. I had some thyroid problems and after having my thyroid out I dropped 35 lbs. Then its like my body went crazy. I just kept gaining weight over the last 12 years or so. What I found out is that I was an emotional eater, a carb eater and quit exercising. Then one day I looked in the mirror and didn't recognize the person I had become. My self esteem was down, I didn't want to go out as much cause I had people that hadn't seen me in a while come up to me and ask me if I was pregnant! I would answer them NO I"M JUST FAT!
I have dieted most of my life and been on every diet or pill that's out there. I would loose great in the beginning of my dieting venture but after years of yo yo dieting, the last 7 years I would only loose 25 lbs and then my body would stop loosing no matter what I did. So when I started having chest pains and high blood pressure and high cholesterol I decided I needed to do something soon. When Carnie Wilson went public with her surgery I became interested. Then one day I ran into a couple of friends I hadn't seen in a long time and wow I could not believe how thin they were! When I asked them how they did it, they told me gastric bypass surgery. Dr. Husted had done their surgery. So for 2 years I had been researching and this was my answer to a healthier life!

I called Dr. Husted and the rest is history. I thank God, Dr. Husted, Jamie and the rest of the crew for giving me my life back. I no longer have high blood pressure, high cholesterol and chest pains! I lost half of my beginning weight! I never expected to lose as much as I did. I went from a size 24 to a 6-8. It's been an amazing life changing experience.
