Heather's weight loss transformation

What was life like before bariatric surgery?
My weight stopped me from being able to live and enjoy my family. I sat on the sidelines, watching my husband and son create memories while I watched. I was physically unable to participate in anything.


If you put off the decision to come in for a long time, why was that? What kept you from booking a consultation?
I researched for a year before I came in. I wish I had come in sooner. The Panhandle Weight Loss Center staff helped answer all questions and eased so much worry.


What was it like to work with the team, from the start of your journey to today?
Absolutely amazing!! Panhandle Weight Loss Center has the BEST surgeons and staff!!


What is your life like now? What’s the #1 thing you love being able to do now?
I can now run, ski, hike, and participate in ALL activities with my family!!! Instead of watching, I can be IN the memories with them!


I can now run, ski, hike and participate in ALL activities with my family!
