Obesity & Me

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

I was never the type to feel depressed because of my weight. The reason I decided into getting the surgery was because I was unable to become pregnant therefor I was referred by my gynecologist to that. I was referred to Dr. Luis Reyes, Valley Surgical Clinic, McAllen Texas.

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

I think that the worst thing is not being able to enjoy life fully especially when you have children and cannot do certains things with them because of your weight.

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

I think that the thing I enjoy doing now is spending time with my kids!
