“I feel like I have my life back,” says Kimberly Holmes of Eupora since dropping more than 100 pounds in just over a year.

Dr. Will Cauthen performed her weight loss surgery in October 2021 at North Mississippi Medical Center in Tupelo. Since then, her high blood pressure, joint pain, edema, shortness of breath and fatigue have resolved. Even better, now she can run and play with her grandchildren.

“I feel so much better about myself,” she says, “and I have a lot of energy.” Kimberly says weight loss surgery is “the best thing I ever did!”
