Obesity & Me

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

Weight watchers, slim fast, Atkins... BLAH, BLAH, BLAH. I have been overweight since birth. Always feeling anxious, and down about myself. I feel like I've missed out on so much of my youth. My surgery has changed my life!!

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

Always feeling anxious about going on a roller coaster. Is it going to fit? Not wanting to go out. Feeling like crap all the time.

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 LOVE MY LAP BAND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The best feeling is all the energy I have. I feel amazing!!!
