Patient Transformation Stories: Chandra's New Health!
Description
Have you tried Ozempic and everything else, only to find nothing really worked? I was there too—until DAVINCI bariatric surgery flipped the script and put my diabetes into remission, igniting an incredible transformation! 6 MONTHS100 POUNDS DOWN, NEW HEALTH -Chandra @channapearce Before surgery, I was caught in a cycle of weight gain and emotional eating. After my wedding, I didn’t watch what I ate, and every setback while trying for a baby only added more weight. One day, I stepped on the scale and saw 387 lbs—a number that forced me to make a change. I snapped a picture that night as a promise: I would never let that be my future. I managed to lose 86 lbs on my own and kept that weight for a while. But after adopting our little miracle, Crew, I knew I had to invest in myself for both of us. When three frightening, unexplained health episodes hit, I realized something had to give. That’s when I met Dr. Cribbins, who introduced me to VSG—not an “easy” route, but the powerful tool I needed to reclaim my health and ditch my medications. Today, I’ve lost over 100 lbs, my BMI is under 30, and I’m only 5 lbs from reaching another huge milestone! I used to put everyone else first, but now I’m proof that prioritizing your health can lead to incredible changes. The amazing team that supported me welcomed both me and my little one with open arms, turning every visit into a moment of hope and friendship. I’ve discovered a new me—full of energy, and passion, and ready to chase after my little guy with renewed vigor. If you’re on the fence about bariatric surgery, know that one brave decision can unlock a life filled with health, happiness, and endless possibilities. Your transformation is waiting!
