It's been over two and a half years since my procedure and I feel great !! I went from 260 pounds to 140 pounds. Since the last year and a half, I've maintained 140 pounds without any effort.My type 2 diabetes has vanished!My high blood pressure is gone! My collesteral levels are normal! Our family Doctor who was a skeptic about the procedure is amazed. It took a little while to get my strength back to my liking but I feel like a 20 year old now. It's been a long time since I had this much energy and pep! I sleep better and look forward to getting up in the morning.I really didn't think that I was that out of shape before the operation but since I lost the weight,boy what a difference ! I had the surgery at the same time that my daughter had it done and she is so much more full of life to-day!She also lost a hundred pounds (240-140) . She was 28 at the time and is getting married this summer. If you are ready for a life change I definitely recommend this procedure!! Enjoy the ride!
