Hello, my name is Antoinette and I am embarking on a long but well worth it journey. After much research, I decided to get the Gastric Sleeve on December 9, 2013. I was 35 years old and I weighed 319 lbs. Honestly, up until recently, I really didn’t think of myself as being that big until I actually saw a few pictures of myself at my wedding April 28, 2012 and I was like WOW!! I had a number of health problems that were killing me. I have 2 children that depend on me and I knew exactly what I needed. A CHANGE! It has been 6 months since my surgery and I have lost 85 lbs. I am off of half the medicines that i was taking daily. I am living life…. I am so thankful for Dr. Scarborough and the team at TLC.
