I can say I really felt miserable back when I was overweight because I always felt that everyone looked shamefully at me. I felt that people didn’t want to sit next me when taking the train, plane or bus. That was such an awful feeling. The day I met Dr. Drieberg, he gave me hope that I could move forward from this dark tunnel into the light. I felt like I have a second chance now and I’m not going to waste it. I would suggest to anyone in a similar situation to do the same, don’t way until it gets worse, just schedule your consultation and change your life now.

After losing 100 pounds I have made up my mind I am never going back to the way I once was. I don’t know where I’d be if not for the weight loss surgery performed by NYC Bariatric Surgeons group. I thank them wholeheartedly for giving me the ability to be active, exercise and continue along my weight loss journey.

Over 90 lbs lost and I’m not done yet. Being a Principal in a school is tough and these kids are hard to keep up with, especially when you’re heavy. Now I can go to the gym and keep up with the kids, especially as my other conditions have gradually been subsiding. Diabetes is not going to prevent me from getting where I need to go and I promised myself I will continue to get my BMI and blood sugar down further. I love the person I am now. Thank you Dr. Drieberg and staff!

After losing 93 pounds I cannot express how happy I am inside. I once didn’t even want to get out of my bed but now I wakeup with gratitude as my attitude. The surgeons at the New York City Bariatric Surgical Center have shown me that you must never give up on yourself. I now go jogging 6 days a week and exercise every morning. When I eat I feel so quickly it is really surprising that the procedure made all that difference. Dr. Drieberg I thank you for believing in me and I will continue to get better each day.

I was brought to NYC Bariatric by a friend who had past success with a procedure and I was hoping for the best. They sat down with me and educated me on my options, showing me the right way to eat in order to prepare for a successful surgery. Afterward the support they provided was amazing. They really care about their patients. Today I am 78 lbs lighter and losing weight by the day (I hope!) All I know is that every time I get on the scale I’m lighter and I’m eating smaller portions while being more active that I have ever been in recent years. Thank you so much.

I didn’t even think it was possible to lose over 140 lbs after my weight ballooned near 300 lbs. I tried every type of exercise plan, class, and diet out there and I kept snapping right back to my original weight. My life changed when I found out I had diabetes and a host of other conditions and that’s when I decided to do something about it. Long story short, the Bariatric Surgeons Center in New York City formulated a life plan for me and I’ve followed it to the letter. I love where I am and I’m not going back. I am forever grateful to them.

To describe how I feel now after being obese for so long is just – surreal. I feel like I lost an entire person. The specialists at the New York City Bariatric Surgeon Center have shown me that it’s never too late to change. I now have a long-term plan to stay on track throughout my journey and support groups to help me along the way. Dr. Drieberg you have my sincere eternal gratitude.

I had every condition in the book from being obese. Every part of my body was either sick, hurting or both. I was a total disaster and fell into a deep depression – which made me eat even more. After visiting the wonderful specialists at the Center for Bariatric Surgeons in NYC, they sat down with me and showed me how we could turn everything back in the other direction. Well, today I am over 85 lbs lighter and I will continue along this weight loss path until I hit my goal. Thanks to Dr. Daniel Drieberg and his exceptional group of professionals I can be the person I truly know I deserve to be.
