At my highest weight of 283 lbs I was merely surviving life instead of living it. Many years of yo-yo dieting, failing health and a diagnosis of type II diabetes were taking their toll. I had virtually become a recluse, too ashamed to leave my own home and unable to pull out of the depression and anxiety that controlled my life. When I first heard about weight loss surgery and its impact on diabetes I began to research the different types of surgeries and became hopeful for the first time in many years. I went to one of Dr. Srikanth’s information seminars to learn more and immediately could see that this man absolutely loved what he did and seeing lives transformed! After much consideration and discussions with Dr. Srikanth I chose to have a proximal gastric bypass and had my surgery on August 16th 2011. I have lost 126 lbs. and feel fantastic! Most importantly I no longer have diabetes, high blood pressure, sleep apnea, GERD, edema, pulmonary hypertension, high cholesterol, high triglycerides or shortness of breath! I walked my first 5k two months after surgery and ran my first 10k five months later. I’m once again doing the things that I love like horseback riding, biking and going to the gym. I no longer fear leaving my home and now even look forward to having new adventures. This journey to health has been amazing and I’ve made it my lifelong commitment to take care of and use this wonderful tool I now have. I’m thankful that Dr. Srikanth has given me a second chance at life and for the amazing surgeon that he is. I’m no longer simply surviving life miserably but am living it fully and loving it! Judi

Bariatric Weight Loss Surgery "It's been a real adventure. I never would have thought that I would have lost 115 pounds and after three years, am still going stronger than ever. I go to the gym three times a week, hired a personal trainer and have pretty much met my goal of getting back into good health. When I started this journey, I was using a C-pap machine, was developing blood pressure problems and was tired all the time. Not to mention the terrible heart burn that I suffered. I've been heart burn free since the surgery (a real blessing in itself), feel great and have a huge increase in stamina. Thank you and Dr. Valin so much for giving me back my life."
