Danece Shares Her Life-Changing Journey With Weight Loss
“The struggles I went through in the beginning were totally worth it in the end.”
After trying countless diets over the course of seven years, Danece Frost Hoskins had reached a breaking point. “I felt stuck—unhappy, unhealthy, and unsure of what else to try,” she recalls. That’s when she turned to Dr. Alice Wang and the Premier Weight Loss Solutions team for help.
Choosing the Right Path
“I was nervous about what life after surgery might look like. But during my consultation, Dr. Wang took the time to explain everything clearly,” Danece said. “I also had help from dietitians who supported me throughout the process. I was nervous, but excited, thinking that I may have finally found a solution to my weight loss problems.”
Support Every Step of the Way
After surgery, Danece felt sore from the incisions, but otherwise felt normal. Changing her diet was the main adjustment. “The biggest challenge is the mental end of things, when you are trying to let your stomach heal and getting used to eating such smaller quantities of food.”
After surgery, Danece received regular check-ins and dietitian visits to ensure she was staying healthy and making progress. “The ongoing care was amazing. The check-ins with my care team kept me on track and motivated. I never felt like I was doing it alone.”
A New Chapter
Since her procedure in December of 2023, Danece has lost 126 pounds. By October 2024, just 10 months later, her weight had stabilized. Everyday tasks that used to feel impossible are now a normal part of her daily life. “I was shocked at how quickly the weight came off. I'm able to enjoy shopping for clothes. I'm able to tie my shoes and go upstairs without losing my breath. It's something so simple but so exciting.”
Her advice? “If you’re considering this procedure, know that the physical recovery isn’t bad—the real challenge is the mental adjustment. It took me about two months to find my rhythm, but once I did, things got easier. And the outcome? Absolutely worth it.”
