"It's more than just weight loss surgery for me."
The Road to Transformation
Michelle’s story is one of notable bravery and resilience. Before she started her life-changing journey, her life was marked by struggles that were deeply rooted in her own perception of herself. She had created an association between her weight and her safety, believing that staying big would keep her out of harm’s way.
This self-imposed association led Michelle to become obese, and despite numerous attempts to shed the extra weight, her mental barriers proved formidable. It was during this difficult phase that she met her now-husband, a man who had walked a similar path and undergone a duodenal switch procedure.
A Love That Inspired Change
Michelle’s husband provided her with the guidance and support she needed. His wealth of knowledge about bariatric surgery, along with his own transformation, served as a source of inspiration for Michelle. With his unwavering support and her own determination, she set out to find a solution that would help her regain control of her life.
It was then that Michelle discovered Healthier Weight, our bariatric company that is dedicated to helping people like her achieve their weight loss goals. After thorough research and consultation, she made the life-altering decision to undergo the gastric sleeve procedure.
A 180-Degree Transformation
"I wish that everybody who needed it got the opportunity to have it"
Today, Michelle’s life has taken a complete 180-degree turn. The journey from the girl who struggled to get out of bed, to the vibrant and confident woman she is now is awe-inspiring. The gastric sleeve surgery allowed Michelle to lose an incredible 10 stone (140 pounds), giving her the freedom, she longed for.
She now wakes each morning without a second thought, ready to embrace the day ahead. Her family all share a bond of happiness and health that she once believed was out of reach.
Throughout her transformation, Michelle found immense support not only in her own network but also in the comprehensive aftercare provided by Healthier Weight. This dedicated aftercare, a crucial part of the bariatric journey, ensures that patients receive the ongoing support they need to maintain their weight loss and overall health.
A Future Full of Possibilities
Michelle’s journey is a testament to the transformative power of bariatric surgery. Her experience with the gastric sleeve not only allowed her to shed the weight but also to overcome the mental barriers that had held her back for so long. She now enjoys a life filled with happiness, love, and good health.
