For Hayley, the year 2022 marked a turning point. After years of battling diets that never seemed to stick and living with the toll it took on her wellbeing, she made the brave decision to take charge of her future with Phoenix Health.
Reaching a Personal Milestone
On 19 September 2022, Hayley underwent a mini gastric bypass with Dr. Duncan Stewart . Just under two years later, she’s celebrating an incredible achievement: a total loss of 192lbs.
“I reached my own personal goal weight of 12 stone with 189lbs loss a few weeks back,” Hayley proudly shares. “I was maintaining a huge loss of 175lbs for almost a year but finally got the scales moving again.”
Her determination, paired with our skilled surgical care, pushed her beyond what she thought possible.
Rebuilding Her Relationship with Food
For Hayley, weight loss was only part of the transformation. More importantly, she broke free from a cycle that had controlled her for decades.
“I’m forever grateful for Phoenix Health and how much they’ve helped me ditch the yo-yo diet lifestyle and fix my relationship with food,” she explains. “I’m almost 40, and for the first time, I feel like I’m in control.”
Support Beyond the Surgery
While surgery marked the beginning of her journey, Hayley’s success was built on comprehensive support. She credits not just Dr. Stewart, but the entire Phoenix Health team.
“My dietician and psychologist were amazing support too,” she says. “I’m forever thankful to you all at Phoenix Health.”
That ongoing aftercare, from nutrition guidance to emotional support, is what makes transformation sustainable. At Phoenix Health, we believe no one should feel alone on their weight loss journey, and Hayley’s story is a reminder of why aftercare is just as vital as the surgery itself.
A Life Regained
Today, Hayley is embracing life in ways she never thought possible. With energy restored and confidence renewed, her focus is no longer on diets, but on living fully and freely.
Her journey demonstrates that weight loss surgery isn’t just about numbers; it’s about unlocking potential, reclaiming health, and stepping into a future with strength and confidence.
