Describe your behavioral and emotional battle with weight control before learning about bariatric surgery.
i have been battling with my weight for almost 20 years.i had tried every diet under the sun and did lose alot of weight but once i went off the diet the weight came back.i would have bouts of depression and would not go out in public for days.i would not even go to family functions.i would feel ashamed of my weight and that everyone would watch to see what i ate.
