Surgeon Testimonial

Aviv Ben-Meir, M.D.
The first time I met him he seemed very straight and narrow....I am a happy go lucky person and he just didnt seem to be able to joke !!!! But the day of my surgery he came to see me before I went down and was a diffrent person ....and during my stay he was great...joking and even laughing...He knows his stuff and does a good job....He answers all the questions I have and has a great staff....

Describe your behavioral and emotional battle with weight control before learning about bariatric surgery.
I have not been under 2oo lbs for a very long time...I know to some people that doesnt seem too much over weight..but when you are 5ft 2in thats a lot of weight to carry around....I have tried everything to loose the weight...diets...not eating and everything in between

My Story

Well...where to start ????
I wasnt always fat...before I got married and had kids I was actually very small and skinny...Then came marriage (1981) and then of course my 2 wonderful kids....1982 and 1985....I gained some weight with both of them but lost some too....My Ex was a millatry man so we moved around a lot..lost a lot of friends ....So finally we moved back to his home town WVA and started to get comfortable....didnt know anyone but his family....They were always into our business.....that when we started having problems...and i started looking to food for comfort...Then the divorce came ...The best thing that happened to me but then more weight too....
So for the next 5 years I was always on a diet and going no where.....Dating sucks when you are overweight and unhappy....
I finally met a great guy who I am still with and has been wonderful and so very understanding....He didnt think I needed the surgery but when he found out about all the medical problems that go along with it he said "lets do this " and has been awesome
