Hello ECBS Team,

I'm thrilled to share my journey post gastric sleeve surgery, six months in and feeling incredible. Under the care of the amazing Dr. Yuan Cheng, I've experienced a transformation beyond weight loss. Previously trapped in a cycle of diets, medications, and mental exhaustion, the surgery has liberated me. With a comprehensive plan involving a bariatric psychologist, dietician, and GP, the journey wasn't easy, but the rewards have been immense.

The initial adjustment was challenging, but with each passing day, both physically and mentally, it became easier. I've embraced healthier choices, noticed positive changes in my body, and rediscovered joy in activities like shopping. Gone are the days of joint pain and restless nights; instead, I'm radiating energy and passion for life.

Indeed, this surgery is life-changing, but its true impact lies in how we choose to embrace it. As Freddy Mercury famously sang, 'Don't stop me now,' because I'm just getting started on this journey filled with endless possibilities.

Hi there,

I hope this finds you well. I’m excited to share my journey with you. I believe my story could resonate with other young people facing the challenges of obesity, especially considering the additional hurdle of dealing with a chronic autoimmune condition, psoriatic arthritis.

Here are the details of my journey:
Current age: 26; Height: 173cm; Highest Weight (HW): 128kg
Weight on the day of gastric sleeve surgery: 107.8kg
Lowest Weight: 56kg; Current Weight: 62kg

I underwent gastric sleeve surgery in Feb 2022 under the expert care of Dr. Yuan Cheng. Following the surgery, I underwent plastic surgery for skin removal in May 2023. Since then, I’ve been maintaining a healthy weight range of 62-63kg through a combination of healthy eating, regular exercise, and an active lifestyle. Best regards,

T.D's Journey: From Struggle to Success

For years, I battled with my weight, trying countless methods to shed the kilos with little success. Then, I stumbled upon gastric sleeve surgery and met Dr. Cheng at ECBS. Despite nerves and doubts, I took the leap, undergoing surgery after rigorous preparation.

The results were astounding. I surpassed weight loss expectations and gained newfound confidence, embracing activities I once shied away from. However, the journey wasn't without challenges. Post-surgery diets and adjusting to a new lifestyle tested me, but I persevered.

With unwavering support from my husband and newfound self-assurance, I embraced a healthier lifestyle. Today, I enjoy physical activities, cherish every moment, and maintain a healthy weight range.

Gastric sleeve surgery wasn't a quick fix; it's a tool that requires commitment and effort. Yet, the rewards are immeasurable. Despite occasional food cravings, I've found balance and fulfilment in my journey.

Six years later, I've only gained a fraction of what I once would have in weight, a testament to the surgery's lasting impact. While challenges persist, I'm proud of my decision and the life it has enabled me to lead.
