Before and After Photos by Peter C. LePort, M.D.

Bariatric Surgery: Darin--Still Nearly 200 Pounds Lighter--Five Years Later! Being told his severe obesity could cause an early death was a wake-up call to Darin. He quickly took action and found Dr. Peter LePort and the Lite & Smart Dimensions program for surgical weight-loss in Orange County and Los Angeles. In 2007, Darin had the Gastric Bypass Surgery and is still so excited about his future. "At 412 pounds I was told by my doctor that if I did not lose the weight, I would die. After choosing to have weight-loss surgery I lost a total of 195 pounds in 11 months and have kept it off for close to 5 years now. My health has never been better! I work with Children who are medically fragile and have special needs. Before having the bypass it was difficult for me to take care of their everyday needs. Now they can't keep up with me! I have so much energy and no fear of not being able to care for them anymore. It is such a great feeling of accomplishment. I got my life back and could not be happier!"

"My starting weight was 455 pounds, but thanks to gastric bypass surgery and a healthy, active lifestyle, I am maintaining a more than 220 pound weight loss and living a life I never thought possible. Having the procedure not only improved my health and self-image, but also my relationship with my beautiful wife. I've even seen an improvement in relationships I have with others. Before surgery, even the most basic physical activities were painful and challenging. I couldn't do the things I wanted and wasn't living the life I desired. Personal hygiene, intimacy and dignity were always an issue though I tried to convince myself I was happy. I've lost most of my excess weight, but have gained a second chance to deal with the issues and choices that led to my obesity. Nothing has been easy, but it sure has been worth the time and effort." This Laparoscopic Gastric Bypass surgery was performed by Lite Dimensions Weight Loss serving weight-loss surgery patients in Orange Country and Los Angeles.
