The heaviest I have ever been was 305 pounds.  I was in a horrific motor vehicle accident that caused me to be immobile for 7 ½ months and all I did was eat and eat.  After seeing Dr. Cywes at Jacksonville Weight Loss, I knew that the Lap-Band® was for me.

On November 13, 2008 I had the surgery done by Dr. Cywes.  Since the surgery, I have lost over 160 pounds in less than two years.  As of today I am 144 pounds.  I run 4 to 5 miles 3 times a week and cycle 15 miles 3 times a week.  I eat healthy and do not eat when I am stressed anymore.  My children love the fact that I am able to play and do more activities with them.

If I had to do it all over again, I definitely would.

Thank you Dr. Cywes and the staff at Jacksonville Weight Loss.
