How has your weight affected your quality of life?
I have struggled with my weight for what seems like all of my life. A number of factors contributed, including a lack of self-worth. I had watched a few friends succeed with weight loss surgery, and kind of looked at it but thought I’d never afford it. Until a trusted friend put me in touch with Health Volition.
How did Health Volition help you on your weight loss journey?
My first consult at Health Volition delivered all the questions to my answers. I thought to myself, “Could it really be so easy?!”. Weight loss surgery is not easy. It is one of the most crucial choices you will ever make for yourself, your health, your well-being, and your future.
I stumbled; it took me a second booking to go through with the surgery. Elle was patient & understanding. I first met Elle and the Health Volition team in early 2018, weighing in at 102kg. I booked, cancelled and rebooked. By the time I booked in for my gastric sleeve procedure, I weighed 107kg.
Before Christmas in 2018, I had my self-funded procedure done at North West Private Hospital. I do not regret one moment or cent or kilogram lost. I reached a healthy BMI within 12 months and have successfully maintained my weight between 65 and 68 kgs for almost nine months.
Life delivers us many choices. I’ve been on a path of self-discovery, growth & betterment for a long time now. I think striving to be the best version of me I can be is what Health Volition really embraced as my dream and goal, and they supported me the whole way to achieve a healthy BMI.
How has weight loss surgery changed you?
I have learnt that to be the very best, authentic version of yourself that you can be has so much to do with the values, energies and intentions you choose to surround yourself with. It’s also about where you take your lessons, the battles you let go of because you realise their futility, the wins you celebrate because they were the battles you fought hard to win for YOU.
Health Volition helped silence the sound of negativity, doubt, and fear. Elle and the team will help you in every way they can and guide you through the process. I will, too! It’s your choice.
