Life after surgery

Lost 40kgs

Doug

Having now lost 40kg, Doug no longer feels the need to eat all the time and is enjoying activities (like climbing hills) that had become not enjoyable at all.

I am full of energy and I have my life back, and I could not be happier.

I have just turned 62 years of age and in that time my weight had crept up, and along with the decline of my health due to Diabetes and blood pressure, I finally accepted that I could no longer beat this battle on my own. I could lose the weight but not keep it off.

I was recommended to Dr Garth McLeod and Dr Ben Mackay. Both doctors have provided me the most professional and personal care anyone could wish for, along with their team.

I have now lost approximately 50kgs from my heaviest weight and I am now off all medication. I am full of energy and I have my life back, and I could not be happier.

I no longer have sleep apnoea, I’m not pre-diabetic anymore, and my cholesterol is in a healthy range.

Weight loss surgery has changed my life. It certainly isn’t the quick fix that some people think it is but it’s definitely worth it. My relationship with food and eating has changed, and the money I was spending on takeaway is now going towards a gym membership.

I have lost about 55kg since my surgery and my health has improved dramatically. I no longer have sleep apnoea, I’m not pre-diabetic anymore, and my cholesterol is in a healthy range.

I am forever grateful to Doctors McLeod and Mackay, and the rest of the team for helping me along my journey.

This has not been an easy journey by any means but it could have been harder if I hadn’t had the support of Mackay McLeod and my family.

Weight loss Surgery is a tool and I can say that Garth McLeod and Benedict Mackay saved my life.

They gave me this gift of Gastric Bypass and the gift of their support. This however has given me the strength mentally and physically to overcome emotional eating.

My life has changed since my surgery. I have a new career, new outlook on life and the ability to run with my family. I'm making memories with my kids.

I avoided going out in public, playing with my children was a struggle, and simple things like tying shoes was a struggle. My life has changed since my surgery. I have a new career, new outlook on life and the ability to run with my family. I can enjoy all our family outdoor activities to the fullest - no more sitting on the sidelines. I'm making memories with my kids.
