Description
You'll root for the underdog and gain inspiration on your own journey toward health and happiness through Brandi Carter's moving story. In her own words, Brandi shares the ups and downs that led her to making the most difficult-and best-decision of her life: bariatric surgery in Mexico. As far back as she can remember, the Arkansas native struggled with her weight, as did almost everyone in her family. After years of dieting and intense exercise programs, Brandi first considered weight loss surgery when her hard work couldn't move the scale under 400 pounds. But it wasn't until her mom died of a massive heart attack, likely triggered by her own obesity, that Brandi resolved to do whatever it took to save her life. Encouraged by her physician, Brandi investigated prominent Mexican surgeon Dr. Guillermo Alvarez. Not only did the gastric sleeve specialist have an impressive track record of success, but his warm personality and endless patience sparked the kind of trust that she hadn't found in local bariatric surgeons. Among the tens of thousands of Dr. Alvarez's patients were about three hundred of her neighbors, who assured Brandi that she wouldn't be sorry. One remarkably simple operation and more than 150 lost pounds later, Brandi can personally attest to the transformative power of Dr. Alvarez and the gastric sleeve procedure. Join Brandi as she walks her audience through the journey from anxiety to triumph by overcoming her lifelong battle and settling into a newfound knowledge that she'll be living healthily ever after.
