Surgeon Testimonial

Matthew A. Fitzer
He is rated one of the best in all of the surrounding area. I haven't actually saw him in quite some time. Sarah, his NP is the best so is his nurse Michelle. I love them both.

Describe your behavioral and emotional battle with weight control before learning about bariatric surgery.
I battled with obesity my whole life. I had no control. No matter what I did, I might loose some weight but regain triple. It controlled my whole life. I did not want to be seen in public, go to school and when I had children, I was embarrassed to even be involved in what they were doing. I isolated myself from everything and everyone.

    Monday is your day! Just remember you are on the journey of a lifetime. Try to enjoy every minute. It may sound weird now, but know that you are cared for and prayed for here, and all too soon this will be but a memory and you will be an inspiration to someone else. I am waiting for you on the losers' bench! ~JudyAnne~

Today's weight
on March 31, 2008 7:11 pm
I don't know if I should be happy or not.  I stepped on the scale and I now weigh 175.5.  It feels like it's going so slow.  Im hungry when I have no reason to be.  Some say they can see the wl others say they see none.  Tomorrow is a new month.  Hopefully the weather will change and spring will come.  That always lifts my spirit.  Kinda down today.  Sorry. Guess I have to much going on.

My OH Friend
on March 30, 2008 2:05 pm
To anyone reading my Blog,  I would like to tell you what a wonderful site this is.  I have met the most awesome person on this site.  I know that she has written about me and now I would like to tell you about her.  Her user name is Inspired By Hope.  Some of you may know her as Robyn.  
Without her,  I don't know what I would have done.  She is one of the most compassionate, caring and trusting people I have ever met.  She has inspired me, listened to me and helped me every step of the way since my surgery.  
She is my soul sister.  I thank the Lord for bringing her into my life and OH for developing this site!
 I wanted everyone to know this including her.  Even though I tell her all the time!  Luv u Robyn!
