Describe your behavioral and emotional battle with weight control before learning about bariatric surgery.
I had given up on dieting prior to hearing about bariatric surgery. Too many yo-yo's, down and way up, too many opinions about what is right, and what is wrong. Too many people making comments, too many people worrying about me... Too much physical pain. Walking up hills became a struggle. It seemed like a pain in the knee would be followed-up by a pain in the ankle or back. Too embarrased to eat out at restaurants because I knew that I couldn't fit in a booth. Too embarrased to eat in public because I could feel the glaring eyes wondering why I was eating that whole plate. Too ashamed to even go to church because who wants to wear a suit that is too tight and uncomfortable.
