Obesity & Me

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

I was always fighting with my weight. I was diagnosed with depression at the age of 17 which had nothing even relevant to do with my weight. Sure I was always considered "thick". But was never obese.

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

Pain

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 am only 5 days post-op. My surgery was not the most awesome thing ever. So for right now, I am not enjoying much :)
