VIDEO TRANSCRIPT
Life before bariatric surgery, it was hard. The weight was a big, major issue. I struggled with sleep apnea really bad. Blood pressure was so high. Borderline diabetes. I probably went through seven diets, but when the pounds came off, they came back really, really fast. I had to make a change.
By going to Temple, they helped me. They gave me all the information that I needed to succeed where I'm at today.
When I met my doctor, he told me that there was two different procedures for weight loss surgery. And I was a good candidate for gastric bypass. He pushed me because he knew I could do it. He knew I had it in me. You know? And he pretty much gave me the tools.
And his team, they all played a part in my success. My diet changed. I started incorporating healthy foods, so it was a great change for me. And once that change came, the weight started coming off.
I used to weigh 273 pounds. And today, I weigh 152 pounds. I do not have high blood pressure anymore. Borderline diabetes is gone. Sleep apnea, that was the first thing that went. I can breathe. I can run. I can live. I can chase after my grandkids, just a lot of energy. So much energy. This is all thanks to the Temple Bariatric Surgery Program.
I was floored when she said grandkids! She looks amazing!
Me too! But, you know what they say? Black don't crack!🤣
Same! I thought that was her son she was playing with! Absolutely stunning!

Grandkids!!!!! I thought that was your son. Wow!!!! You look amazing. I am having my Gastric Bypass at the end of August. Excited, nervous, and ready. O know this surgery will get me back to me.

I will put the work in to be a better me.
Me too.
I got mine a week ago. Can I ask you how everything went?
@@Julie-lh6bx Yes. The procedure went well. I had a difficult time getting adjusted to the new stomach and stayed in the hospital for a week. I couldn’t keep anything down. But it got better… I am loosing the weight. Definitely stay mindful of the foods you eat because there will be many things that you won’t be able to consume . Good luck on your weight loss journey.
GOD BLESS YOU! I AM 2 WEEKS PRE-OP FOR THE GASTRIC SLEEVE PROCEDURE AND BEGIN MY PRE-OP DIET TODAY. I AM 279 LBS AND HAVE MILD SLEEP APNEA. I GRATEFUL TO BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE LIKE YOURSELF THAT ARE WILLING TO SHARE YOUR PERSONAL TESTIMONIALS BEFORE/AFTER SURGERY. YOU HELP PAVE THE WAY FOR OTHERS AND OFFER A UNIQUE PERSPECTIVE TO PROSPECTIVE GASTRIC SLEEVE CANDIDATES. THANK YOU VERY MUCH AND MAY THE LORD JESUS CHRIST GUIDE YOU ALL OF THE WAY!!!!

No god but Allah

Search about the truth with honest heart
I was going to get bariatric surgery in 2010 but I backed up 3 times and was already in the process of getting my surgery done I wasn’t obese that’s why I backed up on my surgery day i was really young and I was this close to getting into the process I did the process of bariatric surgery like 3 times I even did the classes, the testing and etc, but till this day my dr still offers me bariatric surgery and weight loss injections ‘ I did my research about bariatric surgery, gastric sleeve and gastric bypass for many years now 😌
How’d it go
Hi Nina. Great to see you in your story of weight loss. You do look amazing. I’m exactly where you were before you started and now I can wait for my bypass surgery in February. You’re an absolute inspiration to me. Well done love.
Grandkids???? Mam you look 21
Congratulations I'm going there soon
Me too
@@unapologeticgoddess444 I had my surgery November 2nd at 9 and 30 lb down so far
Grandkids!! Wow you age gracefully like a fine wine
I can’t wait for my surgery date
I’m going through this process now… I have a serious question!! Where does all the excess skin goes after such drastic weight loss? That’s what I’m afraid of
I'm headed down this route
Did she say grandkids?? 😳
Grandkids??? Huh??? Lordt I thought you were in your twenties… beautiful
Did you have any complications after?
❤So wonderful! You look amazing. I'm 21 days post op. How long did it take you to get down to your current weight and when did you start exercising post surgery?
Thanks for sharing your story.
Grandkids?!!!! What???!!! Not me thinking her son is so cute !!! Lol she looks amazing! She was so beautiful before already, but now she is glowing and healthy! So happy for her!
Looks amazing not loose skin i am scheduled for 4/24/23 80 days away and I plan to get in the gym now thanks for showing your food sample I will do that from now because I really want that great results with no loose skin
Thought that was her kid she’s so pretty as a person and extremely pretty grand mom
You look amazing and full of life.
I had surgery in Aug. Im thrre months out. I can't wait to look as good as you❤
Why do this surgery when you can exercise and eat well .. people are lazy
Because sometimes that doesn’t work
Grandkids lol I thought she was 24 lol
It's the five year mark that's the hardest..
Can you keep it off with a life change or go back to the old ways. 15 yrs later after GBS.. I kept off 75%, which should be lauded as a success.., but I want the super skinny back before I die ... I'm 68yo.
The PROBLEM is, once you feel perfect - you can never be perfect again. Da.... It's about acceptance..
Wait what??? Grandkids? 😯
Your beautiful ❤️
Grandkids, ma'am!
Grandkids??!!!!! WTF!!!??? I was getting ready to say she to young for surgery
Congratulations

Can’t believe she’s a grandma - she looks so young and stunningly beautiful. She should study acting as she tells a story so well. I could imagine her acting in a series or a movie with her beauty and presence.
