My weight was affecting my health so much that I found myself taking seven pills every day, for things like high blood pressure, diabetes and trouble sleeping. I wasn’t able to walk far without running out of breath, and had little energy overall.
Since I had the LAP-BAND® System surgery in 2006, I have lost more than 80 pounds and my BMI has dropped from 42 to 28. Every day I thank God that I got the LAP-BAND® System. I work with a lot of people who have also gone to Dr. Malley, and they are so happy and so much healthier, and that makes it all worth it. I think our company sees all the good that the LAP-BAND® System has done for these employees. I know that I am healthier and happier, and I feel better about myself.
