Jess Finds New Inspiration With ORBERA® After Losing Herself

Transformative Results and a Reenergized Life

Jess has experienced significant life changes since ORBERA. She lost a total of 45 pounds, transforming her body from a size 10 to a size 4/6. Portion control, a healthy diet of grains and lean protein, and setting a time limit for evening meals and snacks have helped her maintain her new weight. Jess has also relocated to an area outside of San Diego, CA, where she stays very active and exercises regularly.

“I joke that San Diego is like The Land of the Pretty People, and for once, I feel like I can fit in,” laughed Jess. “I’m really enjoying the California sun and lifestyle—especially now that I’m feeling better about myself and my body.”

With increased energy and stamina, Jess is now eager to try new things. She uses the boardwalk near her home to run or walk for six miles daily, and she also enjoys hiking, swimming, and paddleboarding.  Additionally, the symptoms of Jess’s insulin resistance, degenerative disc disease (back and joint pain), and depression have all improved. She has regained her self-confidence and has more energy to keep up with her son, who is now five years old. They spend a lot of time being active together outside, which is very important to Jess. And, she is excited to start nursing school in the spring after already completing her degree in medical aesthetics earlier this year.

“I feel amazing, finally comfortable in my own skin,” reflected Jess. “I would absolutely recommend ORBERA to others who are considering their weight loss options. When you combine ORBERA with a will to succeed, the results will follow. It’s been such a great journey.”
