Kevin - Lost 245 lbs.
Before: 455 lbs. Now: 210 lbs.
"I went to three or four other practices that specialize in weight-loss and didn't feel completely confident about any of them. Then I went to the Kane Center seminar and heard the testimonies of many people who went through the same search I did for the best surgeons. And they all agreed that the Kane group was the best choice they ever made. I knew at that moment that I agreed, too. The Kane Center is the reason I had success." Read more of Kevin's story.
Barbara - Lost 182 lbs.
Before: 342 lbs. Now: 160 lbs.
"In 2004, my doctor mentioned weight loss surgery to me. I started looking on the websites and investigating what that might be like. I did a lot of soul searching. When I decided to do this, I did it right. Dr. Wallace is the greatest! My life has changed completely. I'm down 11 sizes. I travel a lot. Shopping used to never be fun, but now I enjoy buying new clothes." Read more of Barbara's story.
Tamara - Lost 23 lbs., so far!
Before: 243 lbs.
"I had high blood pressure and diabetes. My mom was sick with diabetes, and had to have a triple bypass. I didn't want to go through that or have my kids watch me go through that. After my child turned a year old, I decided to do something about my weight. Now I see that it's not just about the weight. It's about health." Read more of Tamara's story.
Lori - Lost 80 lbs.
Before: 290 lbs. Now: 210 lbs.
"I got to a point where I had tried everything else and I was tired of struggling. Everything else in my life was pretty close to perfect, but I just wasn't happy with my weight. At first, everyone thought I was crazy for wanting to have weight-loss surgery; I always presented myself well. But I wanted to do this to feel better about myself. It was a personal thing. I knew I was ready to do it and I went for it. I love knowing that I have my health back. I workout with a trainer and I feel so much healthier. Whenever I gain a few pounds, I remember how bad it was before and how much more hope I have because of the surgery. I feel so much more freedom in my life now." Read more of Lori's story.
