Surgeon Testimonial

Matt Bosquez, M.D.
Well, I don't have a lot to add that hasn't already been discussed in this web site. Dr. Bosquez is a very knowledgeable, caring, and dedicated surgeon. I was very impressed with his presentation. He was informative in his presentation to the group and answered all questions without difficulty. He stressed that WLS is a tool that he provides that enables the morbidly obese patient to take credit and responsibility for their weight loss. I thought that was profound. A clever person could learn to work their way around the gastric bypass if they wanted to. A dedicated person will lose weight.

It's been a long time again. I just stay in the dog house don't I. Well....what can I say? I have been out of control with my eating. Pathetically out of control. I don't know what has come over me but I have got to get myself straight. I started today because I stepped on the scale this morning and weight 161.8 I am really angry at myself. There really is no excuse. It doesn't matter that it is cold, I can exercise inside. It doesn't matter that I am depressed, food doesn't cure it.

I have diagnosed myself as a compulsive eater, not an emotional eater. I do not eat b/c I am happy or sad (though I do eat out of boredom). I eat b/c it is there and I NEED to eat it until it is gone. I NEED to eat it, not want to. I have been coping with this by going shopping often and only buying a little bit so that it won't undermine my eating. I still eat it all, but I only bought a small amount. It is a pain in the but. It helps me cope.

My job is getting busier. I was in the newspaper this weekend. Many people have approached me and can't believe the difference in me.

Gonna sign off for now. If my profile seems disjointed sorry, I edited it so it could be public.
