Obesity & Me

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

Before the "enlightenment" there was no battle. I just thought I was fat because I ate too much. While that is true, it is not the root problem. The root problem was, somewhere along the lines, food (Carbs) became my drug of choice.

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

Not knowing how good life can be/is.

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

Tie my shoes without holding my breath.
