Harry
Life before Surgery:
“Looking at my two daughters and two grandchildren — I wanted to see them graduate high school, get married, etc. You get to a point in life where you have to make a very important decision, and having the surgery was the most important decision I have ever made.”
Janet
Life before Surgery:
“I was on ten different medications, and I felt like I couldn’t do anything. I avoided walking and going places. I was unable to spend time with family or friends because walking and standing in line was impossible. I had to limit going up and down the stairs. I had so much pain in my knees. Life was miserable – in fact, I had no life. Finally, I decided it was time to get my life back and be healthy again.”
Experience at the Bariatric and Metabolic Institute:
“Richmond University Medical Center’s Bariatric and Metabolic Institute was absolutely the best experience. I can’t believe people still stop me wherever I go and don’t recognize me. Before my surgery, I was walking 800 to 900 steps per day, now I am up to around 10,000 or more. I started out on ten medications, including five for blood pressure, and now I am down to only two. If this is something you really want to do — don’t put it off, do it. You will regret the time you wasted not doing it.”
