    Dallas, Texas Sleevers! !

    Well i used Dr.Davidson at Presbyterian.I've lost 184lbs in one year exactly to the day.He is a great Dr. and will be straight forward with you.On the day of the surgery i was laying in the bed waiting to have my sleeve done i started getting nervous, well he walked in with his operating clothes on and asked if i was ready and then asked me if i would mind if he said a prayer! That eased my mind and i knew he was going to take great care of me!
  6. I started at 381lbs and I'm down to 199lbs in a short 11 months! This has been a great journey.I'm running my first 5k race next week and can't wait.The race committee wants me to tell my story on stage after the race but I'm alittle shy so not sure if i can do that or not.
  7.

    Total success!

    I took a week off work and then did office work at my shop for 2 weeks and the went right back at it at 4 weeks.Started going to the gym at 4 weeks and haven't stopped.If you don't have a real physical job a week is fine but i work on cars so i waited.

    9 Month Post Opp Appointment Tomorrow!

    Doing exactly what my doctor told me to do! Exercise, take my Vitamins, and walk about 28 miles a week in which I've turned that into running! But i started with putting the treadmill at the highest incline it will go and the speed at 4.0.You burn three times the calories doing this.In an hour i would burn around 1200-1400 calories.
