Gastric Sleeve Surgery Helps Woman Lose Half her Body Weight

There’s a stigma around weight loss surgery, I know that. But more than a year after I did it, I’ve gone from nearly 300 pounds to 160 pounds and I’ve never never felt better. Sure, the procedure isn’t right for everyone (some patients do regain a portion of the weight they lose after surgery), but my only regret is that I didn’t have the surgery sooner.

Growing up in a small town in Kentucky, I don’t […]

Michael K | Lost 185 lbs with the Lap-Band®

I was always the biggest kid in my class in school. In sixth grade I was 140lbs. I got heavier as time went on. I hit a high a little over 340lbs in my 40’s.
