Obesity & Me

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

I started to become over weight after I had my first daughter in 2002. It was an up and down battle for 2-3 years after having her. Then the weight just kept going up and up. I have tried so many diets and nothing really worked. And the few that did work i just never stuck to it.

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

The worst thing about being over weight is that im lazy. I hate shopping for a bathing suit.

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

I just had my surgery on June 5th 2012. I can't wait to enjoy shopping for clothes and running after my girls. And not being out of breath coming up the stairs.
