Procedure: Gastric Sleeve

My Story: I started my journey because I had been diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis and I figured I could help my pain levels by losing weight. I weighed in at 286 lbs. I have been yo yo dieting since I was 15 years old and I have never been able to lose more than about 30 pounds at a time and then only to regain it later.

I had went to another surgeon before DFW Bariatrics and they wanted to do the Gastric Bypass so I had a consult with a doctor at DFW Bariatrics and he actually advised me to have the sleeve due to my issues with RA. I had my surgery on November 3rd 2014. On the day of surgery I weighed 267 lbs.

It has been a rough road but I now weigh 229 lbs. I could never have done it without the help of the marvelous team at DFW Bariatrics.
