With a dangerously high BMI of 54, I was morbidly obese and suffering from diabetes, hypertension and high cholesterol. As a doctor I knew that I had to reduce my weight in order to improve my health. In June 2008, I decided that Slimband was the answer I was looking for, and I under went surgery.
Since then I have reduced my BMI to 28, and today I no longer need to take any medications for diabetes, hypertension or high cholesterol. My outlook on life has changed radically.
