Like everyone, I have experienced struggles in life… one of which has been my weight since I was a child. Up and down, up and down, yo-yo dieting, fad diets, gyms–you name it.
Desperate to save my life, I met with a wonderful doctor, a man who would essentially save my life. Many people I spoke with told me I should consider weight loss surgery to help relieve my back problems, and for my overall health. After much consideration, I decided to do it!
Today, I have lost 90 pounds–and counting! I have learned how to eat and how to live!!!
Dr. Sowemimo holds a very special place in my heart; I am grateful for everything he has done for me!! I am sharing this with all of you because if I can help just one person out there who is struggling, it will be well worth it.
Bariatric surgery has been one of the hardest things I have ever done in my life, and not the ‘easy way out,’ I assure you!
My life has changed in so many ways! I can’t wait to reach my goal weight and live the life I deserve! ❤

One year ago, I went under the knife and had gastric sleeve surgery. After years of struggling with my weight, and many health issues, I made a decision to change, permanently.
One year ago:
Jump forward one year:
Today I weigh 120 pounds! I’m healthy and the person I always wanted to be, physically, mentally, emotionally.

Believe me, I had tried all the traditional diets, but they didn’t work for me.
I started my weight loss journey in August 2016 with my first appointment at Prime Surgicare. After medical testing to be approved for surgery, Dr. Seun performed my gastric sleeve on October 12, 2016.
Today, a little over 140 days since weight loss surgery, I have lost 100 pounds!
I would never have been able to accomplish this without Dr. Seun, bariatric dietitian Lori Skurbe and the entire team at Prime Surgicare.
Bariatric surgery is more than an operation, it’s a lifestyle change (for the better).
The only regret I have is I should have done it sooner.

I didn’t have any serious health issues related to my weight, but at 250 pounds and just over five feet tall, I did have knee and joint pain and felt embarrassed when doing everyday things made me feel out of breath.
(Now) my energy level is seriously off the charts! I wake up every day ready to go immediately, no dragging — just feeling great and ready to roll.
I go out all the time and don’t have any of the old worries I had about how big I look or who is looking at me.

Weight loss surgery has saved my life! I want to give special thanks to Dr. Seun Sowemimo and Dr. Robert Kayser. Without their expertise in bariatric weight loss surgery and cardiac care, I don’t think I’d be long for this life. Take control of your health problems (or your addictions) before they take care of you, by knocking years off your life. You have been blessed with this precious life that God has granted you. Use it well!
My weight loss stats:
11/18/2013 — 268 Pounds — Diabetes, High Blood Pressure, High Cholesterol
01/18/2014 — 198 Pounds — Blood Pressure/Cholesterol are normal; diabetes is gone
01/18/2017 — 182 Pounds — Same as Above – Holding steady!
