“I really appreciate my new way of life with my new body. Thanks to everyone in the office for making dreams come true every day! -Wendy Hill “

In May 2021 I had a mild stroke (T.I.A) at the age of 39!!!! At the time of the stroke the doctors weighed me in at 335 pounds! The day of the surgery which was March 24th of this year I weighed 305 pounds. It hasn’t been 6 months, and I lost 121 pounds! I eat plant-based, no bread, sugar, pizza, soda, fried foods as well as no meat. I was on diabetes medication; I had sleep apnea; I was on 3 blood pressure meds; along with 2 cholesterol meds!

I’m no longer a diabetic, so I don’t need the medication(You can get rid of diabetes!!) I got off all blood pressure, and high cholesterol meds; as well I no longer have sleep apnea (yes you can get rid of sleep apnea!!!!). As well I had zero complications from the surgery!!

People will try to give you horror stories about people they know or heard of who had the surgery. HAVE THE SURGERY ANYWAYS!!!!!! Special thanks to Dr. Michael Williams, and his team (Michael Andrews, Dr. Curtis, and Tiffany)! Dr. Michael Williams performed the surgery!

My gastric bypass gave me a new life. In May of 2011 I was 307lbs, 5’2 with close to 60% body fat, and dress size 26-28. I had my RNY gastric bypass July 19th of 2011 and today 7/31/2012 I way 163.2lbs and where size ten pants. There is not a single part of my life that was not improved by losing this weight. I look better, I have improved self esteem, I am not on diabetes door, I exercise 5–6 days a week, have more energy then I know what to do with, my knee and lower back pain is gone and my sleep apnea had dramatically improved. I literally feel like a new person. My only regret is not doing it sooner.
