I had my consultation with Dr. Kam at Barix Clinic in Ypsilanti, Michigan in July, 2005. It went great, but I had alarmingly high blood pressure, and weighed 335 lbs. My surgery took place December 28, 2005 and on that day, I weighed 300 lbs. Its been the best decision I ever made, and as of today, (Feb 2008) I've lost 165 lbs. I plateaued last summer and to jump start my weight loss, I joined The Running Room. This has been the second best decision I ever made. I never thought I would ever ever be a runner, and now I'm running 10k. Everything about my life has changed. I no longer have any health issues, including perfect blood pressure. I am a better mother, and know that I set a much healthier example for my daughter.
