Melody
Lost 117 pounds
Melody wrestled with her weight after having had children, a hysterectomy and a thyroid that didn’t function properly. Weighing at 250 pounds, she would constantly feel exhausted and embarrassed. Melody joined a number of diet programs and saw no long-term results, so her doctor suggested surgery. After having the Gastric Sleeve Procedure, Melody lost 117 pounds and is healthier than ever. She no longer has sleep apnea or high cholesterol and has the energy she needs to keep up with her grandson.
Roland
Lost 120 pounds
At age 36, Roland had already been hospitalized for high blood pressure and undergone a heart catheterization procedure. After hearing the words “You’re too young” repeatedly, Roland finally made the decision to change his lifestyle and began to look for a healthy, permanent weight loss method. He attended a Covenant Bariatric Seminar and made the decision to get the Gastric Sleeve Procedure. Since then, Roland has lost 120 pounds and has only one regret: not getting the procedure done sooner.
Kellee
Lost 152 pounds
For Kellee, being overweight was a lifelong battle. Diet and weight loss programs were temporary, and feeling miserable and insecure seemed like a permanent state of being. Not wanting her weight to hold her back from living life fully, Kellee attended Covenant’s Bariatric Seminar and eventually chose to have the Sleeve Gastrectomy. Since surgery, Kellee has lost 152 pounds and continues to lose more weight through kickboxing, sculpt and cardio workouts.
John
Lost 183 pounds
As John got older, his age wasn’t the only thing that went up. His weight did, too. This eventually led to sleep apnea, high cholesterol and high blood pressure, which required him to take medications. And while John’s mother and brother died from complications of diabetes, it never motivated him to want to live a healthier lifestyle. Then one day John had an X-ray done that revealed a large mass on his chest. Tests showed that the mass was a fat pad, which was the wakeup call John needed to start making healthy decisions to save his life. With the guidance of his doctor, John chose to have the Gastric Bypass Surgery, which helped him lose 150 pounds and has given him a healthier, happier and more rewarding life.
Janet
Lost 164 pounds
Weighing 300 pounds, Janet was taking medications for high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, GERD, and Osteoarthritis. Not to mention, she also had sleep apnea. As a nurse, Janet knew how critical it was for her to lose weight in order to improve her health and ultimately save her life. After attending Covenant’s Bariatric Seminar, Janet made the decision to have the Gastric Bypass Surgery, which helped her lose 164 pounds. Now she’s medication free and can finally enjoy doing things she couldn’t before, like keeping up with her grandchildren and riding a bike.
