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

I eat out of boredom. Every time I consume something of choice it's usually unhealthy because mentally I feel foods high in fat and sugar are exciting. I do know how to eat healthy, I just tend to consume exaggerated amounts of healthy foods when they are my chosen nutrition.

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

Low self esteem is a big one. I struggle with accepting happiness at 272, mainly because the happiness 5 years ago at 160 for someone who is 5'8 was considerably all based on vanity.

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