I had my surgery 1.5 years ago and the results have been what I was hoping for. I can't honestly say that they exceeded my expectations only because my expectations were so high based on my research before the surgery but I can say that the results have been simply amazing and has changed my entire life around.
As you can see from the before and after pictures my appearance is so different as to be almost unrecognizable. I have a girlfriend and we are in a serous relationship. I met her at a New Years Eve dance party that I never would have attended before the surgery and we danced most of the night. I have been able to lower or go off of many of my medications and my overall feeling of well being is off the charts.
My confidence is high and I can't help notice that woman look at me and smile and chat with me at the elevators in my office building a lot more now than before. It's small things like this that really make me see how positive the weight loss has been.
