"I feel like I belong to the community now,
and not on the sidelines anymore."

-Toni

Before my bypass surgery it was challenging and
physically hard to do everyday things like bending
down, tying my shoes and climbing up stairs. I would
run out of breath all the time.

What made me decide to do my surgery was a lifetime
of yo yo dieting. I was never able to get anywhere near
my goal weight and I was unable to keep weight off for

any length of time. I finally decided
that I wanted to break that cycle and
just get healthy. I knew I wasn't
getting any younger and as you get
older you run into problems with
diabetes and high blood pressure.
I wanted to avoid those things.

I went to one of
Dr. Floch's seminars
and I was very much
impressed with what
he had to say.

I had my fifth anniversary this year and I'm having the best time of my life.

There's no comparison to the way I felt before. I feel so healthy and energetic.
I belong to the community now; a member of the community and not like I'm
on the sidelines anymore. I have so much more stamina.

Its just amazing what it did for my confidence, my self-esteem and my over all
health.
