Describe your behavioral and emotional battle with weight control before learning about bariatric surgery.

My struggle started almost 15 years ago when I became pregnant with my son. I gained much more weight than I should have during pregnancy, and still looked pregnant after giving birth. My dieting roller coaster started after my son was born, with losing 20 pounds or so, hitting a plateau, giving up, and gaining back double the weight I lost.

What was (is) the worst thing about being overweight?

Worrying that I won't live to see my grandchildren and struggling to do everyday things like putting on socks/shoes.

If you have had weight loss surgery already, what things do you most enjoy doing now that you weren't able to do before?
