Hello! I have been on the diet train way too long, I am ready for this to end once and for all. I have probably lost around 300 lbs over the past 20 years with various methods. Although I have been successful in dropping the weight needed a few times, I was unable to keep it off for good. That is why I am getting this procedure. I need a permanent tool to help me stay at my goal weight. I have lost a lot of my life in the past years, the past 2 the most. I no longer ride horses, my lifelong passion. I have been driving some minis, but have even about given that up as I feel like I cannot exit the cart easily in an emergency. I cannot run and play with my kids, or swim with them (I feel too self-conscious), I hardly ever enjoy relations with my husband, and I feel like a failure in general. This is not how my life is supposed to be. Time to change for good. I have chosen Dr. Hollis here in Houston with True Results. I have a meeting with him on the 31st March 2010. I hope to have my surgery by the mid to late April, so I can recover in time for summer activities with my kids. I know this will be a long journey and not easy, but then again it never has been. But after experiencing what it is like to live like this, I do not want to fail again, and I will be determined to make this work! I want my after pictures to be here! Wish me luck, and I wish you luckNamasteJen Hardy
