“I lost 160 pounds—and gained my life back.”
– Rebeca, Gastric Sleeve Patient, May 2024

I’ve struggled with my weight for as long as I can remember. At 340 pounds, I felt overwhelmed, depressed, ashamed, and too exhausted to keep up with my child. I tried every diet and workout plan, but nothing stuck—I’d always hit a wall and end up right back where I started.

On May 22, 2024, I made the decision to take control of my life with gastric sleeve surgery. Ten months later, I’m down 160 pounds, four shirt sizes, and five pants sizes. I now weigh 180 pounds—and I finally have the energy and freedom to live again.

This surgery has been a game-changer. It’s helped me manage portions, make healthier food choices, and break free from the cycle of defeat. The team at JourneyLite has been incredible—always available, always supportive. If you have a question or need help, they’re just a message away.

The best part? I can keep up with my child. We run, play, and make memories—together.

To anyone on the fence: don’t be afraid. Take the leap. You won’t regret it.
