    Video Testimonial
 
Regina Mooore wanted to get rid of her diabetes.

"I had such bad medical issues... under-active thyroid, blood pressure through the roof, a bad case of sleep apnea and unmanageable diabetes. I was hospitalized with a major diabetic scare in July of 2005; I had become immune to the medicine. Something had to change.

I did a lot of research, then my mother and I went to the seminar. I made a decision then and there. Enough of this weight! I had gastric bypass in June of 2006. Dr. Boyce did my surgery and he is great.

I lost the weight gradually, over two years' time. It wasn't hard, because I learned how to cook healthy - getting every inch of nutrition from each meal.

    Before and After
   
Now, my diabetes is completely gone. My blood pressure is normal. Sleep apnea doesn't exist. And I have no sagging skin - none. No nips or tucks were needed.

My insurance didn't cover the procedure, so I went to the credit union and walked out with the money. That has been easily repaid by less co-pays for medicine and doctor visits. It was an investment in my health and the rest of my life."

Regina Moore had gastric bypass surgery in July, 2006 at Parkwest Medical Center, a Bariatric Surgery Center of Excellence, and member of Covenant Health.
