Nicole & Jason – More confidence

Nicole & Jason – More confidence

by Dr. Tom Lavin / Wednesday, 14 August 2019 / Published in Patient Stories

Prior to surgery, Jason would wake up feeling tired. His fatigue would follow him throughout the day, worsen after an unhealthy lunch, and leave him feeling bloated and unhappy at the end of each day. He attempted to cure his unhealthy eating habits and fatigue with long workouts and crash diets, but the results never lasted. Jason knew he could feel and look better, but something had to change.

Likewise, Nicole felt discouraged every time she went to the gym. One day in particular really sticks out to her – the day Jason invited her to a yoga class. The reality of her limited physical capabilities was never clearer than when she couldn’t even stretch the way the yoga class instructed her.

The Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy has allowed Nicole and Jason to take back control of their lives. Now, Jason wakes up feeling energized and ready to tackle a day in the courtroom. He’s achieved long-term sustained results from his healthy eating habits and workouts. Similarly, Nicole has regained her confidence. Rather than always remaining behind the scenes at work, Nicole now enjoys taking more of a driver seat approach in the courtroom. The Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy didn’t change Nicole and Jason, it simply gave them the confidence to be who knew they always knew they could be.
