Buck’s quality of life improved 100%

They say word-of-mouth is the best seller, and it’s true. I heard of True Results from a friend of my brother. His experience convinced me to check it out. My brother has had the Lap Band procedure with True Results, and my niece has had it as well — I guess it’s kind of a family thing.

I did my research, though…checked the Better Business Bureau and the competition, you know. My visit to the True Results center cinched it for me. The attitude of the True Results staff is awesome — from the nutritionist to the fitness people to the Lap Band Advocates. Their pleasantness, and willingness to listen and help, really put me at ease. I never felt rushed. They sat there as long as I needed, answering any and every question I had. Every step of the way, they’ve been there with me.

It’s amazing what losing 115 pounds can do for your life! Before, I had so many health conditions, like hypertension and sleep apnea, and I had a drawer full of medications. Not any more. I’m healthy, and the only pill I take now is a multivitamin. I can run up and down the stairs, chase the kids, play ball, walk the dogs, wash the cars — EVERYTHING — and I don’t have to worry about my knees hurting, or getting winded or my back hurting. I don’t worry about whether I’m going to fit into a seat on a plane or at the movies — or whether I can find clothes that fit. My quality of life has improved at least 100%. I feel good about myself and my future. My wife and kids do, too because they know that I’m healthy and I’m going to stay that way.
