Obesity & Me

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

I don't eat a lot, however, I eat the wrong foods. I'm scheduled for vertical sleeve next week and I'm so scared. I have read and seen videos of patients that have been successful and others tha have not. I suffer from htn, OSA, osteoarthritis, sob and other symptoms. That's why I'm having surgery, I'm hoping my health gets better.

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

The worst thing about being overweight is the constant stare people give me. My abdomen is extremely large.

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

Had my surgery Dec 12, 2012.... What I have noticed already is that I'm able to walk the mall and not be sob nor have backache.
