.jpg)  "I´ve being overweight all my life. Even though I was overweight, I had a high self-esteem. I reached my highet weight of 250 lbs.As everyone has done this once in their life, I tried to loss weigh with diet pills and exercise, it worked for a while, but once I stopped taking them, all that weight would come back and even plus more.
Why have surgery? Everytime I had the privilege to see my doctors´ patients having changes on their body weight, and self-esteem, and thought about this for months, and realizing that surgery really worked, I took a step forward for surgery (June 15,2006). I had Mini Gastric Bypass, which Dr. Cantu recommended me since I´m a "sweet eater". I went from 250 lbs. to 181 lbs.(Nov. 24) and still going. Since then, I feel great, I have more energy than before, my self-esteem is growing much more everyday that passes by. Now I don´t worry about diet pills, eating too much, actually I can´t eat that much( a normal meal) I eat a cup-full size or less each meal, which is great! And now I feel No guilty after eating.
I highly recommend surgery to all those people who suffer from overweight, specially those with morbid obesity. I thank God because he has blessed me my entire life, and now even more after having surgery. For the first time in my life now I can wear "normal-size" clothing, which is AWESOME! Thank You Dr. Cantu & Dr. Mansur for changing my life!" |
