Jami M: Gastric Sleeve Surgery

I have struggled with my weight since high school when I was diagnosed with PCOS. I tried every fad diet and magic cure known to man and experienced the normal yoyo gains and losses. My weight effected my confidence, livelihood and my fertility. It was after adopting my daughter that I knew I had to make some kind of permanent and dramatic change. 

I reached out to Dr. Bagnato for the gastric sleeve and never looked back. 

My surgery date was November 15, 2018.  At that time I was my highest weight, 223 pounds. 

I’m now 7 months out and currently weigh 137 pounds. 

The gastric sleeve has both given me restriction on the amount of food I can eat, and also has helped curb the cravings that once seemed to rule my mind.  I love my new body and the things I feel capable of accomplishing now with my nutrition and fitness goals. I’m so thankful for Dr. Bagnato and the incredible staff at Palmyra for giving me so much of my life back. The physical changes are dramatic, but the emotional ones are even greater. You want this team on your side because you will SUCCEED, just like I did.
