Obesity & Me

Describe your behavioral and emotional battle with weight control before learning about bariatric surgery.

I didn't eat a lot of healthy food. Before I knew it, I was big. After having my children, it was so much harder to get the weight off.

What was (is) the worst thing about being overweight?

Not finding anything that fit. Not being able to fit on a airplane. Walking up a flight of stairs was awful!

If you have had weight loss surgery already, what things do you most enjoy doing now that you weren't able to do before?

EVERYTHING! I work out a lot now, I can do things, like walk around a amusement park and not be winded after 30 minutes. BUYING CLOTHES that are super cute. I still want to get the bigger clothes, cause I don't think I see myself where I am now. If I had to do it all over again, I would!
