Before & After There are currently no before and after photos for this member. See these instructions if you wish to submit your own Before & After photos. Surgeon Testimonial David Oliak M.D. Seems very caring about his patients, also about the obesity issue in this country. Even though I didnt have too many questions (because I did A LOT of research prior), he made sure he answered all the questions I had. He is also very nice, makes you feel comfortable and listens to everything you have to say. Member Interests

What else can I say that you havn't heard or experienced? I'm 25 years old, i've been overweight ALL of my life. I have never had a "normal" life, I've always had to limit myself, even as a child I could remember my mother telling me that I couldn't do the same things children my age could do. I remember the nurse pulling me in the 5th grade to weight me in, it was me and a boy named Peter who was also obese, we both looked at each other in terror of the weigh in. I weighed 220lbs at age 11. I hate going out because of people staring. I have always had this paranoia of people staring at me out of disgust. I just feel so bound, encaged and unable to do things I want because of my weight. It has done a number on me emotionally as well as physically. I have always been incredibly shy around new people and people I hardly know. It takes me a while to feel comfortble around people. I'm always tired, knees and joints in pain. I'm just feed up of having to deal with my weight, and decided to do something about it. It would be nice to FINALLY do things normal people do and not worry about what others think about my appearance. I have missed out for 25 years, I don't know how it is to go out and not worry if I'm gonna fit somewhere or if people are going to stare. I just can't wait for the day to come! I have been doing research for wls for about 4 years now, and i'm glad that i've begun the process.
