Weight Loss Story: Ariel lost 135 pounds with gastric sleeve weight reduction surgery and went from a size 28 to a size 18. Here is what she shared with us:
Hi, I’m Ariel. I went from 355 pounds and a size 28 to 220 pounds and a size 18. My weight loss took two years and four months after I decided to have gastric sleeve weight loss surgery. The motivation that helped me make a change was the health problems I was having, such as high blood pressure and heart problems. I was also on the verge of being a diabetic. I changed my eating habits by cutting out sodas, sweets, fried food, and by having smaller portions. I also started eating more healthier foods and baking or boiling any meat I eat. Exercise wise, I also started to workout, walk 4 miles every other day and complete squat workout challenges.

I just had the gastric sleeve surgery about 3 weeks ago, I would love to ask you a few questions if you don’t mind. And Congrats to you and your success.
Shelly says
That’s wonderful, but I am wondering since you changed negative habit was surgery necessary?

Congrats on the weigh loss. I am curious though about extra skin. Are you having an issue with that? That’s the one thing that holds me back from having the surgery. Insurance won’t pay to have it removed.
