Obesity & Me

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

I gained weight starting in high school. It was an awful time in my life. Had 3 children and my weight kept going up.

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

Not being able to walk without alot of pain and the public ridicule.

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 can walk without pain. I have so much more enegry than before. I can go places and not worry about fitting into the chair. Love buying clothes.
